Out of our first 7 games which team, or teams, will we pull a Kennedy against?
Buffalo Bulls
Mississippi Valley State Delta Devils
Rice
Prairie View A&M
Sam Houston State
Arkansas Pine Bluff
Missouri State Bears
I'm not sure who we lose to, because I'm not even familiar with half the schools...awesome schedule btw...but I imagine we drop at least one.
Obviously we should never lose to any of these teams, but I can't put being an absolute joke of a team past bk. We will be worse this year than we were last. I have no idea where we get offense. This is going to be another brutal and depressing year in a conference that is pretty fricking bad.

I assume by "pulling a Kennedy" you mean winning, so I'll say all 7.

you're the best. Posted on 10/24/13 at 2:31 pm to betweenthebara
Looking at the schedule, here's what I see.
Nonconference:
Wins (7/8) - Buffalo, MVSU, PVAMU, SHSU, ARK-PB, McNeese, UNT - Lost by 20 at home, UTPA
Toss-up - Rice - Win, Missouri State - Loss, SMU - Loss, Houston - Win
Losses (1/1) - Oklahoma
Best case scenario: 10-3
Worst case scenario: 9-4
Analysis - A&M, Missouri State, Virginia, and SMU are in a 4-team tournament in Corpus. If we beat Missouri State (decent quality MVC team), we play Virginia. If we lose to Missouri State, we play SMU and possibly go 0-2 there. I just don't see where we get our offense this year with Elston Turner and Ray Turner both gone. Kennedy has managed to shite the bed at home in nonconference against an inferior opponent every year (Rice in 2011, Southern in 2012) so you know it'll either be Rice or Houston.
Conference Play
Wins (3/6) - Arkansas, Mississippi State, lost in Starkville...not nice, South Carolina, Vanderbilt BAD loss, Loss to Auburn
Toss ups - at South Carolina - loss, at Georgia - loss, at Vanderbilt - loss, at Missouri - loss, Alabama - Win, Ole Miss - win, Tennessee - Tennessee:Kennedy :: Kansas St:Slocum
Losses (3/5) LSU - win, at LSU, at #3 Florida, at #14 Kentucky, won in Knoxville-nice
Best case scenario: 13-5
Worst case scenario: 6-12
Analysis - Arkansas can't win on the road and can't lose at home. All the toss-up teams are bipolar.
Overall prediction:
Another 7-11 conference season. Coupled with a 9-4 nonconference record = 17-15 and another year with no postseason. Same song, different verse.

All I can say is at least Acie Law and Gillespie made up for Fran and Year 1 Sherman while I was in school. At least I didn't have to watch abortions in both of these sports during my student days.

It looks like I might have been wrong about at least one thing, to early to tell if we will drop any of the first seven, but this team does seem to have quite a few players with the ability to score. They are definitely more athletic, and will be more fun to watch throughout the season I believe. Only two games in though.

2 games in to the 2011-2012 season, we won 83-58 and 81-59 in our first two games.
Then the tournament in NYC happened and the wheels fell completely off.

bump. Still no change to my overall season prediction.

quote:Missouri State will be without two of their starters when they take on A&M, including their 2nd and 4th leading scorer.
If we beat Missouri State (decent quality MVC team)
Also, does anyone know how many points A&M has to score before everyone present wins something from Cane's?
Earlier in the APB game, the crowd was chanting, "We want chicken."
The chant seemed to motivate the players.
