Seems a lot of people have differing expectations, moving expectations, and differing goals for this team...which is all legit.

But as of today what are your thoughts for the last 4 conference games?
  1. What are your expectations? (Mine 3-1)
  2. What would be a disappointment? (Mine 1-3)

2-2 would be a disappointment, although not unexpected. We haven't been playing well, but I still think we should beat OU and WVU, and win one of UT/TTU.

3-1

That TT game seemed tough for awhile, but the Red Raiders might have some extra motivation.

I think 3-1 losing @texas

Clearly hoping for 4-0, mostly just for the threads about missed opportunities

This is eerily similar to the losses to Baylor and KSU and how everyone was saying the next four games were so difficult and no way we'd do better than 2-2. We went 3-1 including beating TT and Ol' Miss on the road and lost by 4 at KU. The next four games I expect a similar 3-1 result

I’d be happy with 2-2. At this point, we have zero chance of winning the Big 12 and the odds of finishing top 3 are extremely slim. I’d be pretty content with finishing 21-10 and 10-8.

I really wanted to avoid being the 4-5 game in the Big 12 tournament but that’s out of the window now unless we really collapse and fall to the 6 seed and nobody wants that. So at this point, just avoid a big losing streak and at the end of the day, I’ll be fine with 2-2.

I think we will go 2-2 but that will be disappointing. Think we win OU, @WVU. Lose @UT, Tech.

I think I posted elsewhere last week that it would be disappointing if ISU has 10 losses going into the Big 12 tournament and it basically sucks that that's a likely scenario but at this point what this team has been is how they're probably going to stay.

leaning toward 2-2 but its realistic that we go 1-3. Teams know how to play us, play physical, crash the boards, drive hard to the hoop and make us shoot 3's. We have enough talent that we keep the scores close but seem to be lacking either the x and o's or the lack of execution of those to win.
