This is the 3rd time I'm doing this poll, and probably the last. But based on the FULL body of work so far this season (not just the last 6 quarters, or any other small sample), how have your expectations changed from what they were at the beginning of the season?
The first 2 times I posted the poll the overwhelming majority of votes were that expectations hadn't changed. I think that was far and surprisingly reasonable for this fanbase. Now that the smoke has cleared from the ISU disaster, where do you stand?
Personally I started at 7-5 and am now leaning toward 6-6. I had us beating ISU to get to 7, so not much of a reactionary change from me, just math. I think KSU and BU are the 2 remaining games we should win, but I'm not certain that we don't pull out another upset W somewhere along the way. At this point I don't think anything from 8-4 to 5-7 would surprise me. I also don't think the OU game will tell us much. If we win it will be awesome, but I don't think it means we're suddenly a great team. Likewise, if we lose I think everyone kinda figured that way back in August so it won't mean all hope is gone.
