Looked to me the over/under was 9.5 conference wins. We sit at 6-3 and everyone's predictions are still in play. I'm concerned we have not developed our young players enough to make a run in the second half. Not enough team work. Relying on one of the three sons to get hot to save the day. Bill82…13 Ostate…13 Beavsinorange…14 Babeav…11 or 12 Osubeaver2018…10 or 11 Atownbeaver…10 Beaverstever…10 Avidbeaver…10 Baseball1111…10 (at best) Jdogge…9 Drunkinstoopidbeav…9 2ndGenBeaver…9 Beaverintheberg…8 Thomasg86…7 Sagebrush…7 Seastape…7 Aicandme…7 Albanianbeav…7 We are 6-3 right now with the following slate left: Stan Cal uo @ucla @usc UA ASU @uw @wsu I feel good that there are 4 wins in that list to make my 10 wins, and first conference winning season in like 25 years or something. To be sure, it is a tough slate left as things go. I think it is going to be essential to sweep the bay at home. that just HAS to happen. Then we need to take UO at home. We get an extra week for it, it is at home, I feel good taking them at home I think 4-5 is in the bag over the last 9. I think 5-4 is likely and I am calling that. I think 6-3 is possible but it would involve a big road upset.

I think 6-3 is possible but it would involve a big road upset. I think we win the next 3, have a good shot at getting a split in LA (SC is better than when we played them, UCLA still is hit or miss. I think we're the better team at a neutral site against both), split at worst against the Arizona schools, then a win against WSU and a loss @uw. I'm going to say anywhere from 5-4 to 7-2. I would be surprised if we don't have a winning record over the 2nd half of conference play.

I think 6-3 is possible but it would involve a big road upset. I am hoping for 6-3 in the second half. But the key is to get in the top 4 and not have to play the opening round at the conference tournament. An interesting side note (for me) is that Cal is 0-9. We are the only team to go winless in the Pac10/Pac12. Maybe Cal will join us. They do have WSU at home the final weekend.

Might not be NCAA tourney worthy, but ought to give us NIT consideration, and something to build on for next year.

Nice job!

Even after the 6-3 start, I was pretty worried we'd be able to get 4 more, given the schedule and other team's improvements. I don't care how down the Pac-12 has been, we really needed a 10-8 or better conference season to show some progress. What is very surprising (shocking really), is that we finished ahead of Arizona, UCLA , hole, Stanford, and Cal - all programs with tremendous advantages for their programs over OSU, including the talent level of their past recruiting classes. If you review the media poll, the predicted finish was hole, UCLA, UW, Arizona and ASU. pac-12.com/article/2018/10/11/oregon-picked-pac-12-mens-basketball-preseason-favorite

Nice job! I would've taken being a lose here if we could have pulled out wins in our last 4 losses.... All of those hurt but at least we know we can compete with anyone in Vegas. We got the bye and UW all of a sudden looks beatable the last couple weeks so maybe being on their side of the bracket (and avoiding a surging uo too) isn't such a bad thing.

Yeah, I gotta say I agree. I know I called 10 wins early in the season, but with how things unfolded, 12 wins should of been our minimum. Dropping both Arizona schools at home really put a downer on this season. I know, I know, best conference season in 30 years. 4th place regular season finish is the best finish in about the same amount of time. Winning season, winning conference record. We probably get an NIT bid here... there is good in this season. 10th place predicted finish, and we are 4th. It was just a weak finish, and it could of (should of) been even better. Still happy it was positive overall, I just can't help but feel we left W's out there. quite a few of them in fact.
