There haven't been very many games to counteract our horrific three game stretch against VCU, San Diego, and Houston. As more datapoints come in, I think we'll look better. We just have to keep up our improvement that has happened since that game. Also, it says a lot about the Big 12 as a whole. It's going to be a dogfight nearly every game...we as fans need to be ready for that.

who?

I cant imagine 14-16... If OU goes 14-16 you can place Capel on the hot seat.

I don't think that will happen.

If thats the Vegas line, I would be winning millions by the end of the season.

kenpom rankings are a good source of information.

 

[NickZepp]

There's too much talent on this team to win anything less than 20.

Ken Pom does have great stats...but with any stats you need a larger sample size to accurately predict anything. I'm sure if you only used our last 4 games as a sample size, we would be predicted to win many more games.

If that's still the case after 15 games, it's time to get worried.

That site had us projected to go 8-22 a couple of weeks ago.

:ez-laugh: I'm glad someone else noticed that. His computers don't put in the fact that this team is getting better and better every day!

This past Monday was the first day he published any record predictions.

The predictor stats improve as the season moves along.

As ctt noted, they weren't even published until about a week ago.

I think Pomeory himself states that the predictor stats don't become too reliable until toward the middle end of January.

Yeah, my bad. That was the realtimerpi.com site I was thinking of. They had us at 8-22 and now have us projected at 13-16.....

this.

still so early. ken pom is an interesting site. no reason to rag on it for skewed info based on incomplete sets of data at this point.

I don't think that will happen.

If OU goes 14-16, Capel should be more than on the hot seat. He should resign. That is unacceptable, especially with the talent OU has. I just don't see that happening. (Now if OU had a couple of injuries, I would retract this statement but otherwise I think it is completely fair.)

Yea, RPI and Pomeroy's rankings aren't too reliable until the year turns. We won't jump 50 spots in the RPI in February like we did after we beat Utah.

 

[NickZepp]

They could have it 100% right.

 

[thebigabd]

Wow.....

 

[DenverSooner]

I am surprised you remembered this thread. Very sad day for OU basketball.
