Well, good news is it should be easier to exceed expectations, then fall below expectations

LOL

I expect us to do a bit better than 8th (maybe), but not much. For us to rise much above that, somebody on the roster will have to be/play considerably better than anybody is currently expecting them to.

KSU could get it done this year

 

[WichitaSooner]

Looks fairly accurate to me. KU will win it going away and I think K-State is the best bet to finish second. OU is one of a handful of unknowns -- could definitely exceed expectations but obviously need multiple guys to take a step forward for that to happen.

 

[SuperHoops]

What happened at Baylor? Those guys have been pretty good for a long time under Drew and we all know that there is always something shady about his recruiting.

I will be stunned if Baylor finishes 9th. Totally stunned. The transfers they have from Mississippi State and Yale are immediate starters and very good players.. They have tons of athletic ability. They don't finish worse than 5th.

OSU will finish last.

What happened to OSU? why are they predicted to do so poorly? They seemed to have a great finish last season... Not that I am a fan, boomer sooner all the way!!

 

[SuperHoops]

OSU only has 3 guys back who played last year and the PG they thought was going to be their best player got arrested and is suspended indefinitely.

 

[OULad]

Probably not a lot of difference between 5th and 9th. we could finish anywhere in that range,

They were picked dead last, last season also.

This is a tough basketball league. It won’t take much to fall from 5th to last if you’re not playing well.

I don’t think OU or osu will be very good, but 5-10 are separated by a very thin line.

 

[WaymanFan]

OU has underachieved their preseason Big XII prediction each of the past two seasons...it's about time we overachieve. Being picked 8th, we're set up perfectly to finish a little higher and sneak into the NCAA Tournament.

Well you have to be picked some where, 8th is better than 9th or 10th. I think Kansas will win it again
