Falcon Men's Basketball Game by Game Predictions

I see us winning 15 and losing 13, over the course of the season.  I don't believe that picking the bracket buster is possible, since we don't know who we are playing.  I think we will be 8-8 in the MAC.

A few observations:

We have a couple of tough games on our pre-season schedule, but by and large it is pretty soft.

  • The UWM game Thanksgiving weekend will be a nice test for our team.  They had 17 wins last year and have most of their better players back.
  • Detroit is improving and will not be the push over they were in the Watson years.
  • Temple is down a little this year, making this a potential upset, but winning in Philly will be tough.
  • Two "marquee" coaches will come to AA, Rick Majerus and Isaiah Thomas.
  • Sooner or later, if we play them enough, we will beat Savannah State
