Why won't we

win the next five games?

Because, the competition is pretty tough. We do have a shot at it though.

At Texas is the fly in the ointment the way I see it.

I'm probably most concerned about the ISU game.

But yeah, we can win all five. Hope we do.

We can win all 5. Baylor, ISU, and UT all really concern me. If we can win 2 of those 3, and take care of business with WVU and TCU, I'll be happy.

 

[slappy in OP]

I'm cool with winning the next one, then we can go ahead and win the others. Baylor is now in desperation mode and still has a ton of talent (even though Drew wastes it most of the time). Winning all would be great though. I am wondering what kind of seed we would get?

 

[Soonerman]

Anything more than 3 wins out of the next 5 will be extra icing on the cake for me. That means we got to more than 20 wins. I certainly think more than 3 is attainable, but I don't want to be massively let down at the end of the season in case we don't win 4 or 5. It'd take away from an entertaining and successful season.

At this point it would take some sort of unforeseeable collapse to miss the tournament.

An undefeated finish could move us up to the 4 or 5 line.

4-1/3-2 is probably more likely and lands us in the 6-8 range.

Point is, I think we're playing for a better seed at this point, not just to get in.

You are probably right, but I think we really need to win at least 3 of the next 5 to breath easily come selection Sunday. Winning this Saturday would go a long way!

I think Texas is MUCH better than when we first saw them, I think Baylor will be a VERY tough game and I think ISU is a bad matchup for us. I wouldn't be shocked if we won all five games, but I wouldn't be shocked if we lost one of those three.

The good thing about this team is it doesn't seem like one that lets down. That's a big difference from the teams of the past. I'm pretty confident about the TCU and WVU games because of that, so if we get one or two of the others, I think we're safe.
