It would be cool to see a Sentry/ Black Panther team up (similar to DC's Superman/ Batman team) in comics. I would like to know if Sentry and Black Panther can take down a team of Avengers comprised of:
Captain America
Iron Man
Hercules
She-Hulk
Ms. Marvel
Thor
Luke Cage
Spider-Woman
Hawkeye
Vision
Black Panther also gets prep time in this. What are your thoughts?

With Sentry's raw power and Black Panther's mind, they have a really good shot. Especially if BP gets prep time. They might not win all the time but they have a chance at a slight majority.
Maybe 6/10, but then again while Sentry is fighting the heavy hitters BP might get taken out by a gang of them. And with the brain of the operation gone, Sentry would fall.
Ok, good point, what if the Avengers do not have Thor? Reason being he would be a huge deciding factor when it comes to buying the Avengers time to take out BP, but with him removed, does it change the outcomes more in favor of Sentry/BP?

Actually I think the match up becomes closer know that you remove Thor. Upon thinking on it further BP/Sentry's chances relied almost entirely on what BP could come up with during his prep.
Because without the prep the duo doesn't have a real chance, now that i think about it. The reason is b/c it is arguable that Thor vs Sentry is an intense fight for either so add another god (Hercules), Iron-Man, and Ms.Marvel, and i think that Sentry bites the dust. And BP has a tough time just taking Cap out, so add Spider-woman, Hawkeye, Luke, and Vision and its a curb stomp.
The reason I gave them some wins (six might have been a little overzealous) was because I've seen BP do absolute miracles with prep time and if he could coordinate that with Sentry it could be devastating.
But i think this thread would work much better w/o the godly addition of Thor. Then at that i can stand to argue BP/Sentry 4-5/10. BUt BP would still need to be able to have his prep. And the Avengers doesn't have any idea of whats to come. They could attack them at Avengers Tower and take them by surprise or something.
In relation to Black Panther's Prep time, he has prepped for these specific Avengers and they do not know that he and Sentry are going to attack. As we know, BP always thinks several steps ahead of his opponents. We also know that BP knows how most of these Avengers fight (individually and together) and how to counter their attacks with the appropriate Wakandan tech. Another thing I will add to this is that he has a generally good understanding of Sentry's powers (those powers revealed thus far) and can use that to aid him in his planning of how to take these Avengers down (it is always good to know your ally's capabilities as well as your enemy's).
Think Sentry's little underrated here. Carol as Binary was comparable to Thor (not as strong or stronger but close), and she got properly owned by the Collective who was going toe to toe with Sentry. Remove Thor from this match and sic Sentry on the team and its game over man, game over
Vision hold his own against the man who has the power of a million exploding suns? Who is completely invulnerable and has vast mental powers and strength above Hulk level?
Unless the team comes up with a way to contain the Sentry, Sentry/BP wins.
That's usually how Tony wins against foes too powerful for him. He doesn't always use raw might and that's what makes him so unpredictable and cool although as of late they have been shying away from that concept
and to tell ya the truth, getting beat up by Sentry if you are only a normal human is not a humiliating thing. I mean its freaking Sentry. You got bested by a damn good opponent, nothing ugly about that
