I cant see us dropping 14, but 10 or 11 seem more likely than 4 or 5

No we will not drop 10. Maybe 7 7 would mean we coast to a sec title n likely are a 2 seed at seasons end. Damn I wish we had a post player. Every great Cal team here had a great post player...... Cuz, TJ , AD, Towns, Randle, Even last year PJ was great. We got no post this year n nothing coming next year. That needs remedy.

The NCAA brings 1 loss...The SEC and tourney brings 4 or 5 total and we already have 3. Perhaps we only get 9 losses best case 8. I think thats the best case scenario with a bad shooting team and inconsistent bigs.
So I guess I will predict 8.5 losses.

8.5 is less than 10 and 14

We didn't have a great post presence with the Brandon Knight team. It took Cal several games to figure out how to use Josh Harrelson and it resulted in several losses. But eventually things were ironed out and we went to the Final Four and could have easily won it all. I think this team is similar in the fact that it's going to take a while to work out the kinks, but I do believe they will get worked out.

Blast from the recent past.
The sky is falling posters are, thankfully, wrong once again. 👍🏀

I'm gladly wrong on that prediction. At the time, it looked like a good prediction. Those kind of predictions install mental preparadness for that possibility. So in that regard, it was smart.
Would you have dredged this back up had my prediction been right?

Would you have dredged this back up had my prediction been right? It wasn’t a good prediction then nor now. It was just more of your Cal hate. And how can a mentally unstable person prepare for anything mentally? As for pulling up a prediction of yours that turned out right, that’s something we will never know.

If we had dropped 10, you know damn well this thread would be sinking into oblivion.

If we had dropped 10, you know damn well this thread would be sinking into oblivion. You certainly hoped we would lose 10 or more. You shouldn’t have started the thread if you wanted it to go away.

My prediction before the season was 9. The SEC is not as tough as last year, but neither are we. I'm sticking with 9. Looks like I was off a bit.

I predicted we wouldn't lose 10 but I thought the reason was the SEC was down this year...actually I think the SEC isn't down just a lot of teams capable of winning games hence the number of teams other than Vandy with 5 plus league wins and sitting at .500 or better...the wild card is road games...
UK has been the best road team in the conference that is why they won the league...I wasn't sure about the team winning road games after Vegas but they have been awesome...think about this...they are 7-2 on the road including the TTU game only losing on a miracle buzzer beater at USC in game they should've won and the loss at Auburn where even retired officials were lamenting the horrific officiating...this team isn't blowing teams out but they know how to win and they have a will to win....if Cal had went to the three guard lineup at the beginning of the season I don't think we would've lost to Evansville, Utah or Ohio State....early he tried to play Whitney and Brooks a lot of minutes and they weren't ready for prime time...that probably contributed to our issues...the best thing that could happen was Whitney leaving...at that point Cal was left with a short bench and not trying to please players with minutes...
