St. John's basketball: non-conference predictions, 2010-11
Early predictions for St. John's Red Storm. These predictions - especially the conference ones - are wildly subject to change. There just isn't enough information out there for me to really predict which games St. John's will struggle with. Not yet. So I will post a look at the non-conference...
Preseason conference predictions
As some readers may know, the Big East football media day is next week. One of its annual traditions is a preseason media poll, ranking the eight conference teams by order of predicted finish. Over the past few days, I have attempted to survey my fellow Big East bloggers for a similar poll. It was...
Evaluating My Preseason College Football Predictions
I’ve already looked back at my bowl picks and preseason conference championship predictions, in which I fared about as poorly as I would if I joined the Crunktown Icers, so it is with some trepidation that I look back at my random preseason forecasts from last August. These are they: Although no...
Evaluating My Preseason Conference Championship Predictions
Now that the best offseason ever has settled down somewhat in the wake of all the firings, resignations retractions leaves of absence, cowardly departures from Knoxville at night amid rioting in the streets surrounding the athletic building (not unlike the frantic escape of a deposed communist...
An extremely premature look at the Mountain West in 2010
TCU established itself as the team to beat in the Mountain West in the 2009 season and will most likely carry that title over into the 2010 season. But are they and if they aren't, who will dethrone the defending champions? Moreover, will the conference place a team in the BCS for a third...
Looking deeper at Utah's 2009 schedule
The season is still pretty far out, but that shouldn't stop us from looking a bit deeper at Utah's 2009 schedule. As I mentioned last week, I thought the schedule broke down pretty favorably for the Utes and now I'm going to explain why. When looking at this schedule, like I've done the past...
Predictions, Anyone?
Tomorrow's game has actually turned into one of the more intriguing ones on Saturday. The Terps take on 2-seeded Memphis right after the Tigers played a horrible game and right after Maryland looked dominant at times over Cal. There aren't any expectations for Maryland to win, so there's no...
Maryland-Virginia: Predictions, Anyone?
Maryland goes into the Virginia game needing a win to get to .500 in the ACC, but also to keep their NCAA tournament chances alive. UVA has been bad this year, but they haven't been laughable - they already ruined Virginia Tech's tourney bid, and beat Clemson. Sylven Landesberg (the guy with the...
Revisiting My Preseason Forecasts (Part II): Assorted Oddball Predictions
Here in Bulldog Nation, we believe in finishing the drill. Yesterday, I reviewed the conference championship predictions from my preseason forecasts, and I now turn to the more freewheeling, open-ended, and (generally) boneheaded prognostications I offered in August. These are they: The Bulldogs...
Path to the NCAA Tournament
If the season were to end today, Utah most likely would earn an at-large bid to the NCAA Tournament. For how the season began, with a loss to D-II Southwest Baptist, it would prove to be a remarkable turnaround. However, the season is still not complete and though Utah is sitting in prime position,...
