Playoff Projection, updated

22-20, 5-10
Today was a BIG let down insomuch as I did not think we'd take the Cal series when I did my original projection, and we very nearly did. We would have really set ourselves up for a nice finish had we pulled off the win today (or Friday, I guess).

Again, series wins or bust: we need to win every series leading up to the Civil War. If we do, that would put us at 28-23; we really need to go 5-1 in our remaining OOC games, with a likely loss to OSU on Tuesday. Factored in, we'd be at 33-24 going into the CW.
I don't know. We might really need to take 2 games from the Beavs. Getting swept would almost certainly leave us on the outside looking in. Only winning 1...? I don't know. That might not be enough. Winning the series would almost certainly put us over the hump.
Sweeping any Pac-10 series instead of simply winning 2-1 (easier said than done, we've never done it) would also go a long way, but as said, since we've never done it I'm not going to bank on it.
