Since the most interesting Texas thread was locked, I lifted this idea from phognet. Pick the over under for Texas next season.

1. 10 double doubles for Pittman.

2. 5 times Gary Johnson is leading scorer.

3. 20 games that Balbay starts.

4. 10 games that Balbay finishes.

5. 1 team finishing ahead of Texas in the Big 12.

6. 10 times a tv analyst describes Avery Bradley as a perfect Rick Barnes player.

7. 6 losses in the season.

8. 4 games that Texas plays in the NCAA.

9. 10 games that Lucas scores double figures.

10. 15000 fans at Jerryworld for Texas-UNC game.
 
1. Over
2. Under
3. Hmmmm.... Under, but I hope for over.
4. Under
5. I only think KU can do it --- is that over or under?
6. Over --- I've done it myself at least a dozen
7. Under
8. Over
9. Under
10. Over --- but they'll be HEAVILY discounted at the end

1. 10 double doubles for Pittman.Over, and hopefully because his minutes have gone up2. 5 times Gary Johnson is leading scorer.under
3. 20 games that Balbay starts.
Tough one, because it sort of hinges on when Lucas becomes eligible, and how much he plays when he is. I'd say under
because we might use some weird lineups with Bradley or Mason getting some ball time.

4. 10 games that Balbay finishes.
What does this mean? Like he's on the court at the end of the game?

5. 1 team finishing ahead of Texas in the Big 12.
Probably only one team has a shot at it. I'll say under
, because the over seems like kind of a collapse.

6. 10 times a tv analyst describes Avery Bradley as a perfect Rick Barnes player.
IN THE FIRST GAME!


7. 6 losses in the season.
Under
, not counting the conference tournament and NCAA tournament. I was going to make a prediction that we finish with only 6 losses for the season, but I guess that would include the postseason stuff.

8. 4 games that Texas plays in the NCAA.
Again, I think if we lost in the tourney, it would be in the Elite 8 or Final 4. So I'll take the Over
because the Under would be kind of a disappointment again.

9. 10 games that Lucas scores double figures.
Under
, because he'll be platooned a lot and more of an assists/defense guy in his first year here. He only averaged 8 at UF as a big minutes guy, so the chances of him getting that many double digit games is slim. Maybe 5.

10. 15000 fans at Jerryworld for Texas-UNC game.
Over
, by a little. My guess is 18-20K on hand.
 
Great thread. I'll have to go back at the end of the season and see how I did.
