SB Nation is doing an article-styled countdown.
The Griz check in at #13. It’s a good read...

Sort of troubling that they think Kendal Manuel is eligible; he's not. Also that they would predict a perfect Big Sky record, when that is highly improbable given not only the travel problems but also the strength of Weber.They have a pair of outstanding freshmen who could augment an already talented group of returners.

In any case, I don't want us to go into the Big Sky tournament undefeated. That's a recipe for disaster.

If you are kicking everyone's azz all year I'd agree with you. If you're undefeated and had to do it with some adversity, I'm not against it. When Kentucky was undefeated until the semis a few years ago, they really didn't have too many games with adversity. UNLV years ago, the same. Undefeated and having to EARN it...I think is not a problem and keeps them mentally engaged. that said, it's hard in any league to be undefeated. It'll be a fun season to follow
