3 games at the BC over the next 8 days (G-Town, SHU & Butler). After the 3rd game, we will be at the mid-point of the BE season. The outcomes of these games will give some direction as to how the conference season will be going. 5 of the final 9 will be on the road (Nova, SHU, Creighton, Butler and Providence). So the 2nd half of the BE brings no guarantees. Some thoughts on where MU stands after these next 3 games:
3-0 (5-4): Things are looking up. Even with the road schedule, a possible .500(+) season is still in sights.
2-1 (4-5): Things start to get iffier. That .500 season is getting much tougher.
1-2 (3-6): Things are getting bleak. My 6-12 projection is unfortunately looking more likely. Some lineup changes?
0-3 (2-7): Season is unraveling. Time to go to developmental and play the seniors off the bench.
The next 8 days will be interesting. Need to protect the house (and, the season).
