Remember, Kenpom is a measure of how poorly we have played so far. Play great tomorrow and it alters the predictions after that.

Aside from the margin of defeat in the Illinois game, I think this is why many are so upset about that loss. Fortunately for the Gophers, these models can be and have been proven wrong, before...they just need to do it!

So if we win 6 or 7 then Pitino must be a pretty good coach upsetting all those teams.

There are tons of people on here who think he is already a really good coach. Swear, if he went 11-9 every year for the next 5 there would be a statue.

They'll have a Coffey, Washington, or Oturu type to hold on to every year. All nice players...but eventually, one year they will all collide in a magical season where they were once ranked #16 overall at one point. They will then make it to the second round of the NCAA tournament, never to return again.

Many of us just want to win the conference a few times over 10 years, advance in the tourney a few times. Fill the Barn. Play good basketball by taking good shots, not turning the ball over and playing great defense and without off the court problems.

Not surprising, without looking, my guess would be the game against PSU and Illinois. SMH if Rutgers is favored to beat us.
