Basketball-Prospectus Looks back at their Predictions

We haven’t given you a link from Basketball-Prospectus in a while, right? Just kidding. You’re going to have to sit through another blog about how these guys rule. Anyways, the page we’re directing you to is titles “Looking Back.” It chronicles the best and worst prediction that he made about the college basketball season of 2007-’08. He made some real stinkers, but he was also pretty spot on for some of them.
For example, Gasaway predicted that Oregon would be sent to the NIT, and that Seton Hall would only lose 3 Big East games. Well, those were pretty far off base. However, you have to admit that these predictions were pretty good:

  • Mississippi State would win the SEC West.
  • Louisville is the best team in the Big East – Well, they made it farthest in the tourney.
  • Wisconsin will win the Big Ten
  • Bill Self is no more cursed than the Red Sox or Eli Manning
