That would be outstanding. I would have said 1-4 counting Kentucky before today. Now I think OU will win 2 of its next 4 and could do better.
 
Virginia should be a toss-up. We should beat Wichita State or Chaminade.

Arkansas is winnable. Arizona's going to be very tough.

Therefore, I think it's feasible for us to go anywhere from 1-3 to 4-0. 4-0 is a major stretch, but I think 2-2 is probably the most likely scenario.
 
Let's not get ahead of ourselves. One step at a time for this team....I know its cliche but its the truth this year.

WSU is pretty solid this season, I'd have that one as a toss up. Key to see if Capel has progressed, get up for every game.
 
I think this team has a significantly higher ceiling than most people think.
Regardless, to reach that ceiling, they are going to have to prove it every single night. They have to leave it all on the floor every time they step out there. They can go 3-1 over the next 4, but to do so, they need to play every game like it is the only game on the schedule.

Agreed. There were a coup[le of points tonight where I was waiting for crappy shots and one on one basketball that look retarded. Never saw it. Play like that every night and improve over the course of the season and we have a chance.

Why is everyone writing off Wichita State? Those guys are good. MVC preseason favorites, will probably win the conference.

And they gave UConn all they wanted.
 
2-2 would be a great record for us, none of these games are even close to automatic for this team. Honestly Virginia and maybe Arkansas are the only two we might be favored to win.
 
think 2-2 would be nice and what we should hope for. If we go 3-1 we may be a lot better then I think we are. We're gonna have nights where we just don't play well and probably lose against a sub par opponent but we hopefully will win a couple we have no business doing so. If this team keeps up the attitude and effort they showed tonight it should happen. Either way it's gonna be a fun ride.
 
Yep. Those guys are tough and doubt they go out like that in Hawaii. I think we are on their level (more talented, but not as expereinced).
 
I know nothing about Arizona this year. I think we will handle Arkansas. 3-1 is a real probability.
 
I would be satisfied with 2-2, really really happy with 3-1, and ecstatic with 4-0. Like, more ecstatic than when I heard T-Swift is having a benefit concert on Thanksgiving Night. :D
 
Wichita State will give us all we want and then some. They are very solid.

No I don't think we can....Wichita state looked good and virgina is decent
 
Wichita State was kind of living by the three, yes they are good, but if they are not hitting from out there then that just helps out. also Virginia got hammered by Washington, so they may not be so up to it to play in like 14 hours later, plus as long as we play with the effort we have been and not shooting 30%, we can beat both of them. Now if we can get Cade to guard Rotnei like he did last year then, we can pull a win there. Arizona I have no idea, if we can. 2-2 is expected, 3-1 can happen, and 4-0 is there in reach, but going to take some Sooner Magic. But heck I am just happy with the no quit and the will to fight til the end.

I think you hit it right on the head BigTime..

We may have played well and showed some huge strides and possibilities for this team...but one thing i know about teams like this is there is a very good chance they could come out the next night and throw in a clunker reguardless of the opposing team...

Each game is going to be its own monster for this bunch...i know as fans we like to look ahead and project but with this team its almost worthless...

Play each game hard, continue to improve...thats what i'm looking for
