With just 6 games left on the Valley slate, we can finish as high as 11-7 or as low as 5-13.  

@UNI: L

UE: W

BU: L

@ISUb: W

ISUr: W

@Drake: W

I'm going with a 4-2 finish in our final 6 to leave us at 9-9; I don't think we match up well with Bradley's height, but expecting (hoping) we end conference play on a confidence-building note by finally beating a top tier team - and on the road for that matter.

@ Northern Iowa loss 5-8

Evansville win 6-8

Bradley win (possibly no Terry Roberts) 7-8

@ Indiana State loss 7-9

Illinois State win 8-9

@ Drake loss 8-10

Bradley and Indiana State games are toss-ups, feel confident about the others

I'll say we go 4-2. I agree with most of your predictions but I see us losing at Drake and beating Bradley at home. Especially if Roberts is out for an extended period

I think we upset UNI. We are just due. Agree with everything else. 9-9

Oh I didn't know Roberts was out / injured?

He's in a walking boot and they say it's an ankle injury but there's no timeline right now.

Predictions only raise or lower expectations which in turn causes more disappointment let's just hope for the best get as many wins as possible

Gonna say we lose to Drake and UNI, each of those two would have to really lay an egg for us to win.

So 4-2 and finish 9-9.  

But Bradley, Indiana State and Illinois State could all be very difficult to win if the Salukis don’t play real well. 

Hope for the best.

Two games into the final 6, and now the best we can finish is 10-8 in conference and 17-13 overall heading into Arch Madness.

2 - 2 at best, assuming we can beat Bradley here, and that is definitely up in the air.

Maybe we can beat SYCs there, but I wouldn't count on it. We shoot well and play with some energy, unlike the 2nd half against the Licks, we can beat anyone.

Think we split vs Bradley and @ Indiana State, beat Illinois State at home, and lose to Drake on the road.  2-2, finish 15-15 and 8-10 in the MVC.  Likely end the season 15-16 with a loss to the 3 seed.

Could happen. But I just don’t see an overall below .500 record for the season. 

Dawgs have played like that, but I don’t see it happening.
