Duquesne Dukes Fan Forum » Get On The Record

Time to get on the record as to your projection of the number of total wins you think Duquesne will have in the regular season. There is no official prize this year due to budgetary constraints, however, there is a rumor that our friend VBC has offered to buy the winner a slice of strawberry pie at the McKeesport Eat'n Park.

I am impressed with what Dru has done with this roster. My official prediction, which I believe could be exceeded is:

11-2 Non Conference
12-6 Conference
For 23 wins

Go Dukes!

10-3 non-conference
9-9 A-10
19 wins
2-1 in the A-10 Tournament

I'm going with CLK . Non Conf. looks good and 12-6 seems about right. in conf. play. They just might do better if Hugley stays healthy and Jake is back. Go Dukes.

I’m going with

9-4 non-conference
13-5 a10
22 wins and 9 losses

I believe this team will get better and better the more they play and be dominant in the A10 by end of season

May be our best team in may years

I love this team on paper but I'm hesitant to over predict since I always do that and I'm always wrong!

A realistic prediction
9-4 OOC
10-8 in C
19-12
2-1 A-10 tourney

I'm hoping for more
Go Dukes

RedandBlueRUs · 10/14/2025 6:39 pm

Excited for the season! Gonna be fun with all of the new guys and those returning.

9-4 OOC
9-9 A-10
2-1 Tourney
20 wins

Let’s Go Dukes!

This is the good down the middle prediction. You and I look for the upside, but watched last year too. Great post.

Only 9 posters dare to make a prediction? I didn't realize how much of a draw the no expense paid trip to McKeesport was in prior years until now. You still have time.

One more week to Get On The Record.

VBC · 10/26/2025 9:24 am

24 wins

Washparick4 · 10/26/2025 11:02 am

11-2 and 13=5 equals 24-7.

Rayrich · 10/26/2025 10:50 pm

25-6 regular season. 14-4 in conference. Win the 3 A-10 tourney games at home. Win three games to get to the final 8 and get screwed in a last second call. 31-7 when all said and done. This team will be special. Gonna get screwed as we always do in a few A-10 road games or the Nova or Boise game. No big deal. We will have arrived. This team is loaded and ready to write their script and Dru will take them there.

I heard from an insider that a dinner for 2 at Eat n Park has been added as an additional incentive 💰

MikeR · 10/30/2025 11:10 am

11-2 non-Conf
14-4 Conf
3-0 A10 Tourney Champs
2-1 NCAA Tourney

Since I read and occasionally write, will guess 22 overall wins and 2 wins in the A-10 tourney. McKeesport (and Pittsburgh) are a long ways from the TN plateau, but will try to get us there and see a game and go to Angelo's in Washington.

Wow,that's big, boy. Sorry Motor, I couldn't help myself, but still a huge incentive to get on the record.

My go to at Angelo's is the chicken alfredo and finishing up with the mint gelato.

9-4 OOC
11-7 Conf
1-1 A-10 Tournament

Hope I'm seriously wrong..

Some years we stay in the Meadows area (how it has changed!) and sometimes across the street from Angelo's. Stuffed hot pepper appetizer and one of the fine pasta dishes.

10-3 Non-conference
10-8 A-10
2-1 Conference Tournament
21-12 Overall, which might put us on the bubble for the NIT, but I don't think would get us in.

PhoenixRising2 · 11/03/2025 10:03 am

9-4 Non-conference
10-8 A-10
2-1 Conference Tournament
21-13 Overall

I do think that there is a 3 or 4 game upside swing to my prediction, but I would consider anything less than this outcome to be pretty disappointing.
