Ten Big Opportunities: How do we do?

[tgreaney]

ESPN just posted their 2015 pre-season power rankings. Considering our pre-Big Ten Tournament schedule, this gives us ten games against those ranked (MD, Wisc, and Mich twice; Ind, MSU, Vandy, Butler once). How do we fare in those ten games?

My Guess: 7-3

I don't think Michigan and IU games should be problems. MD is the only team with more talent on paper than us. 5-5 at worst and 8-2 at best.

I think Purdue can get Maryland at home, not that it will be easy as no Big game is. Beating IU at IU is VERY difficult! I remember a few years ago Jesus took his team of 12 into that place and found it much more difficult than changing water into wine...

I watched the Butler exhibition

Will be extremely surprised if Purdue doesn't beat them. Purdue is just flat out better at most.positions, although Butler is a really well coached team.
