Chances are....no.
But im banking on one of our opponents not showing up.
With an awful football season and horrible mbb, one win would seem like winning the super bowl.
Due to changes in college sports this may continue as the Dark Ages 2.0.
Lets hope the next offseason doesnt have our players, once again, bailing out to go elsewhere. If we can start keeping players, then maybe we can be competitive.

Our problems do not stem from bailing players. But that has been discusses ad nauseam.

Your probabilites

@ Maryland - 4.2%
Minnesota - 26.2%
Illinois - 25.5%
@Nebraska - 28.2%
@ Wisconsin - 7.1%
Penn State - 16.9%

I think we will win against Minny

If Ayo is out, Cats also have a chance against Illinois......

Yeah I was wrong earlier in the season at one point (maybe we were ~0 and 4-5) I laughed off chances of going 0-20 and said we would likely get 3-4 wins. Now it looks like 2 is the most likely outcome. The probabilities you quoted sum to an EV of just slightly over 1 win in our 5 games remaining. I think we got through the hardest part of the schedule with the 4 games in last 10 days including 3 tough east coast road games (Rutgers, PSU, MD with home Mich in between). The next three, after a little bit more rest, we have some reasonable chances to scrape out a win. But as you can see above, we will be underdogs in each individual one. I think we will likely get at least 1 more. Hoping for it, would be nice to get a semblance of momentum into next year.

We are winning every day! It's about growth. We are becoming a " Duke" powerhouse right before your eyes! The wrestling team has been ranked inside the top ten all year! Soon, men's hoops will follow.
