With that, we would be remiss as les sportsbloggeurs if we didn't put in our predictions for the year. We'll keep it simple, so all of you can put in your predictions as well. The rules of sports predictions remain the same as they have been for decades, if not centuries: best one gets lifelong fame and admiration and a ticker-tape parade, worst one gets put to death. Categories are as follows:

1) Regular season record;
2) Big Ten record;
3) NCAA Tournament seed (if applicable);
4) leading scorer;
5) one other prediction.
