Updated Season Predictions

With only 3 games left in our non-confernce slate, I would like to re-open predictions for our season.

Current: #21 (9-1)
Remainder: 17-4
Total: 26-5 (14-4)
 
I'll stick with my original prediction:

I hate to do predictions and I rarely participate.

But I'm going to stick my neck out because I truly believe that this year is going to be a revelation.

Non-Conference:

Of the 13 games, I just don't see the Buffs losing to anyone from among UTM, Jackson State, Arkansas State, UCSB, AFA, Elon or Georgia. Buffs outclass all of those teams too much. 7-0.

Then we've got a handful of games that are tough ones based on rivalry or opposing talent: Wyoming, @CSU, Harvard. I believe we're too tough at home to lose either of those 2 games and too much more talented than CSU this year to lay an egg in FoCo like we did in 2011. 3-0

Last, we've got our heavyweight fights. Neutrals against Baylor and Oklahoma State plus Kansas at home. Friday night is the swing game. Are the Buffs ready for a title bout on the first night? Is Baylor? No way I'm picking against the Buffs, though. 2-1.

So, I've got us going 12-1 against a very highly rated non-conference schedule. This leads us into Pac-12 play.

Pac-12 Games:

18 games with 9 home and 9 away. We get Oregon / Oregon State as "home only" and Cal / Stanford as "away only".

In our 3 years in the Pac-12, our home / road records have been as follows:

2011-12: 8-1 at home / 3-6 on road
2012-13: 6-3 at home / 4-5 on road

This is the year that the Buffs protect home court while also breaking through with a winning record on the road. 9-0 / 5-4 to go 14-4 in Pac-12 play, which will be good enough to win the regular season conference title.

Prediction: 26-5 heading into post-season play on our way to the first 30-win season in program history.

I'm going to stick with my preseason 22-9 for now. I reserve the right to make changes once OOC is completed, but for now that seems pretty close to where we end up. Pac is the toughest we've ever seen it, there are a number of teams capable of beating us when we go on the road.

Dinwiddie, Scott, and Johnson all declare and are lotto selections. A massive tornado hits the plains destroying Lincoln, Waco, and Austin. Boyle is Time's Man of the year. Booker hits a full court buzzer beater to beat Kansas in the sweet sixteen, KU fires Self in the post game pressed and extends a massive job offer to Boyle. Tad laughs at the offer. Kansas basketball falls off the map. Tad Boyle doesn't lose a game till he retires. And by retiring I mean dying because his house in the mountains collapsed from the weight of all his trophies and awards. Don't worry he was 90.

let it rain kool-aid. I love these predictions. I guess I had no idea we were quite up to these standards. I'll balance it 24-7.

come one dude don't be a downer
 
Non-conf: 11-2, With losses to ku/osu and csu/harvard
Conference 13-5; good for 4th
Bow out in semi finals
Overall Record: 25-7
Season: Finish 4th overall in conf regular season, lose in the pac 12 semis.

I may change my conf predictions at the end of the season, but my 11-2 will be close. Good on the buffs for proving me wrong w the harvard/csu. Unfortunately, I didnt see the loss to baylor coming so my overall record prediction could be good (If things go the way they are supposed to w Elon & UGA.

MOAR KOOL-AID PLZ!

Pre-season I think I went with 10-3 for non-conference, and 12-6 for conference, for 22-9 overall.

I'll change that to 11-2 non-conference, and 14-4 in conference, for 25-6 overall. I think we go undefeated at home this year, and go 5-4 on the road in conference.

Like Wyo already said: MOAR KOOL-AID PLZ!!!! Can't get enough of the stuff right now. :lol:
