2-2 or better. Pitt and Wisconsin are beatable. Seton Hall, if we use the home court to our advantage, like 2 years ago. MSU, I just hope is not a blow out loss.
I really hope that our early scheduling does not come back to bite us. We have potential to be a pretty good team. I am so sick and tired of not playing any tough teams in the first month of the season. Every other team goes out and plays at least 1 or 2 real good teams. Go look at Minnesota's schedule.
Best of Luck,

Would anyone hear sign for 1-3 with the win being Wisconsin?
...........SHU?
I’d be encouraged by 2-2.2-2 or better. Pitt and Wisconsin are beatable. Seton Hall, if we use the home court to our advantage, like 2 years ago. MSU, I just hope is not a blow out loss.
Doesn't seem like anyone thinks we can beat anyone on here.
Pitt has been bad and can't score, can't shoot 3s, turns it over a lot, doesn't have our length at guard, got abused inside. Lost to Nichols.
Wisconsin lost to St Mary's Richmond and New Mexico so they aren't the Wisconsin of previous years
Seton Hall - biggest rival at home with our best team in years. We have beaten them with much less talent
MSU - We alwayssss play them very tough despite huge talent gaps. Could have easily snuck a couple upsets already over these last few games against them and again, this team has more talent
Not that we will go 4-0 but we have a legitimate chance in all of these games. Some people are completely writing games off as if we have no shot which just doesn't make sense. The team has started to look better lately. Rutgers also may have been playing down to the competition and bring their A game against the tougher competition. We shall see but under 2-2 is a definite disappointment. 2-2 most likely but 3-1 is more possible than some are making it seem
Uhhhh sf Austin did beat Duke...Only problem with this is that the only team with a pulse we scheduled we lost to....and that team barely had a pulse.
Do we feel better about things being 6-1 with our current schedule or 4-3 with Wiscoinsin or Minnesota's schedule.
I am not completely disagreeing with you. If we truly fancy ourselves as a potential NCAA team next year we need to up the schedule.
I didn't say St Mary's was bad. I am saying this isn't the Wisconsin of the last bunch of years. Those teams would beat even a good at Mary's squad. This year's team isn't a deep run NCAA caliber team. They are very beatableSt Mary's is in the Top 20, Wisconsin losing to them on a neutral court isn't a bad loss. I don't know what happened at Barclay Center with Richmond and New Mexico etc, but 18 out the last 19 years, they've made the NCAAS. My guess is safely in, that they're a NCAA team again this year.
In close games it always comes down to the team that can make shots at crunch time.The next four games will be a good indication if Rutgers has those type players.The absence of a consistent 3 point shooter worries me along with foul shooting.Winning on the road remains a obstacle that Rutgers has yet to master.I think posters are underestimating Wisconsin. This game will not be easy. Remember Rutgers does not have good shooters, if this game likely develops into a half court game, its going to be ugly and that means it can go either way.

Another reason this Pitt game is so B1G. It could impact the team psyche and confidence level heading into the next 3It will suck if we lose the first two, but that feeling of suckage will be temporary if we win the following two.
Pretty much anyway you slice it, we gotta find a way to get two of these four games to feel confident about the rest of the season.
Well, I would hope the team is a little tougher than you're giving them credit for. Even if they lose, I'm sure they and coach will learn from it and focus on improving for the next game. I think it's the fans' psyche and confidence that is more likely to be damaged.Another reason this Pitt game is so B1G. It could impact the team psyche and confidence level heading into the next 3
