Yeah it's almost as if these preseason writers dont actually think about what they're writing. Hmmmm

All of the people picking us third don't have any mustangs on the all conference team. 3 - 5 in conference is our floor if nobody is an all-conference player. Both Semi and Shake will be.

Pretty obvious Nayden respects this team

Biggest factors to our season: can semi be the stud we think he is and will a solid backup pg emerge who can enable shake to move off the ball? I say play by guys like tom Wilson and Ben E will determine if we make the tourney or not. (That and of course injuries, no margin of error if sterling/Ben or shake go down).

Reg season: 24-7, 2nd in AAC with road losses at temple, uconn, houston, memphis and cinn.
OOC losses to Pitt
2-1 in AAC tourney, putting us on bubble
2-1 in NCAA, if we make it

I think its a positive that this team is being overlooked. No pressure and great motivation.

That is a really good analysis by the Daily Campus writer. Hopefully it will be true. I would take that.

teamranking projects us 23 wins

My official prediction: SMU goes 24-6 (13-5)

OOC Losses: @ USC
Conference Losses: @ Cinci, @ UCONN, @ UH, @ Memphis, vs. Cinci

25-6 regular season, 2nd place in conference, 2nd place conference tourney, sweet 16!!!!!

I predict your iPad is never repaired

now that we've had an early look, anyone care to revise their predictions? I still see this team winning 20 games or more and playing in the post season...just not sure if it will be NCAA or NIT. I think we go 9-4 non-conference and 11-7 in conference...maybe better, but good chance we will have to win the AAC tourney or at least get to finals to earn NCAA bid
