Creighton by at least 8. Watch out for their 3 point storm.

So IU just went Oh-fer-San-Juan. I’m afraid that once again this isn’t the year the Big 10 wins the Big 10-ACC challenge.

eddie,

In response to your point that “four teams with less than four wins each in conference does not bode well for the conference RPI,” the conference RPI is unaffected by the in-conference performance of teams at the bottom of the standings. The conference RPI is only impacted by the performance of Big Ten teams in non-conference play.

Agreed that the bottom half of the B10 isn’t looking very good. That, and the fact that OSU looked awful for most of the game against NC, doesn’t bode well for the B10/ACC challenge. I suspect our losing streak will continue.

I hope we are not overlooking Houston Baptist. They have a strong press and an inside presence….two things that we need to work on (Frosh at point and small ball)….

I’m trying not to expect too much out of this years team but I really expect them to go 3-0 and I’d be a little disappointed with 2-1.

First off, we are the best team there, hands down. We need to win it. Second of all, we have many tough games that I expect us to lose (Kansas, UConn, MSU twice….). I think we have to win this tournament to keep the RPI up through those tough losses later in the season.

I realize we are young and are filling holes, but so are the other teams in the Old Spice Classic…I just feel like we need to win it more.
