Depends on who the wins and losses are against.. It wouldn't be impossible because a similar Vandy team got in an a very mediocre UCLA with embarrassing losses to UK and Bama got in too with similar record.
But this has too much talent to only win 18 games unless some voodoo happens.

We should get a few more than 18 wins. I'm thinking 21-23 honestly. This is a pretty solid team overall

You people talking 23 wins are the ultimate optimists. We are so young. The schedule is harder than it's been likely been ever. There's literally like 1 or 2 more automatic wins on the schedule. That's it.
I hope yall are laughing at me later but I don't see it.
How will Avery work the rotation in January? Playing 10 and getting in any sort of rhythm is difficult.

22-8 (12-6) or 21-9 (11-7) thats my prediction.

Yea I don't see us winning less than 20 games. There's too much talent on the roster. I don't think Avery is the best coach in college basketball, but he's certainly good enough to win 20 games with this talent.

Their Mods said it wasn't true. They haven't heard anything

At worst, we go 9-3 in OOC. In conference I think we can split the A&M, possibly split Kentucky and Florida, and drop two - three that we shouldn't. That would losing 8-9.

This isn't true. Every team except Alabama A&M and maybe Mercer is capable of beating us.
Posted on 11/16/17 at 11:34 am to MontyFranklyn
It's critical that we beat split with A&M and Florida IMO. Assuming we handle business in other games, only avoid a few bad losses, we can have a good seeding for the SECT. Also shows we won't be just a team that beats bad teams, but loses to good ones. We need to take the next step.

I hate the A&M game is on Dec 30th. Not a great time for good attendance.

They just announced Alabama will play in the 2018 Charleston Classic next season. Some of the other teams included will be Purdue and Wichita State

I don't understand how we manage to almost always get these 2 on our schedule. Great for the resume, but I'd like some variety.

Doesn't looks like our games next week against BYU and Minnesota will be televised.

How do we keep managing to land in these preseason tourneys that aren't televised? You would think we could get something better. Last year ours was on YouTube, this year Facebook.....maybe twitter next year?
Posted on 11/16/17 at 12:05 pm to Bamafan15
WTF.....As a man who lives in the Woods and has satellite internet and cant stream very much this fricking sucks.
Posted on 11/16/17 at 12:12 pm to mistaken4193
That is the EXACT reason I'm complaining. It doesn't matter what internet company I use, they're all very, very slow where I live. They told me it's impossible to get fast wifi where I live
Posted on 11/16/17 at 12:15 pm to Bamafan15
Ive constantly annoyed Charter since I moved where I live now(2009) and they still dont provide in my Area.I was really excited about the Minnesota game too. Probably my 2nd most anticipated OOC game other than Zona.

No one has good information. I've heard a few times from people in the know that they feel better about Wiley than Purifoy but nothing concrete.
