Marcus blog: Unofficial Big Ten writers poll picks Minnesota 9th in Big Ten



I see us tied for 7th with Purdue, I think we're a better team than Illinois, but the rest of it looks right
 

Seems fair. IMO we were a better team, at least on paper, than this year and we finished 8th in the B1G.
 

I want us to be predicted to finish as bad as possible, it will only help Pitino's recruiting when he "over achieves."
 


Nebraska will not end up in 12th, the Gophers somewhere between 7-9.

I, too, can't see Nebraska in last place.

As for Minnesota, 9th is a fair prediction. That's what I'd say with a gun to my head. Better is very possible and would be gravy. The Gophs do have some talent, obviously, but it's a tough league.
 

Yeah, tough league. 9th sounds about right. I really am hoping for an upward trajectory. Improving as the year goes along. That's my main wish. Also, FIU never lost more than 2 straight. I like that stat, particularly with the cobbled up squad he had last year. Let's keep that up.
 

If Big Nebraska plays like Dirk, and Big Mo plays like Lebron at the 5 and 4. Hollins and Hollins will light it up.

People aren't taking into consideration that these four players are now men who with Pitino's strength program will be twice as good as they played last year.

Sarcasm or..
 


To those who think Nebrasketball won't be in last who they gonna beat, Penn State has Frazier back, NW has Crawford and Cobb back and they're not better than us, Purdue or Illinois
