Okay, so I decided to dive into making some predictions for Oklahoma State basketball. It seemed like a fun challenge, and I figured, why not share the whole messy process?
Getting Started
First, I knew I needed some data. You can’t just pull predictions out of thin air, right? So, I started by looking at the team’s recent performance.
- Checked Past Games: I looked at their wins and losses, who they played, and the scores.
- Looked at Stats: I checked out things like points per game, shooting percentages, rebounds – all that good stuff. I am not great with the numbers, but wanted to get an idea.
Digging Deeper
Just looking at the numbers wasn’t enough.I needed to have a little more information.
- Opponent Research: I researched who is playing against Oklahoma. I looked at their records and how they’ve been playing lately.
- Injuries?: Are there any key players on Oklahoma State’s side that are injured or have some issues? This can obviously make a huge difference.
Making My “Predictions”
Alright, time to put it all together. After all my “research” (using the term loosely!), I was ready to make some educated guesses. Honestly, it felt more like throwing darts, but hey, I tried to be somewhat logical.I think they have some losses coming up.
- Considered Home vs. Away: Teams usually play better at home, so I factored that in.
- Used (Some) Logic: Based on everything I gathered, I made my picks.
The Result
I have completed my predictions! I felt like I learned a bit more about basketball. We will see in the next few weeks how well my predictions turned out!
