Pac-12 teams played six games last night (11/21/2019) and lost four of them. Not sure how relevant that's going to end up being but the Pac-12 really needs to not step on its own feet again in non-conference play like they did last year to get more than 3-4 teams in the tournament this year. The conference started 42-4 at least before last night but these results are pretty ugly.
UCLA lost to Hofstra at home 88-78
Utah lost to Coastal Carolina in a non-conference tourney 79-57
Wazzu lost to Omaha at home 85-77
Cal lost to Duke at MSG 87-52
#14 Arizona squeaked by South Dakota State at home 71-64.
Stanford beat William and Mary 81-50.
Some of those are the type of results that will kill our SOS come conference play. Beavs gotta continue to take care of business in non-conference play to have any chance at NCAAs this year. I don't want to say they might need to win the rest of them and go 11-1, but anything worse than 10-2 and it might be all over barring a top 2-3 finish in conference or winning the Pac-12 tournament.

It was #1 Duke... and Cal looked very good early. They looked much improved over the Cal teams of the last few years. |

Pac-12 teams should be winning every game they play  Except that other team to the south of course. |

That Utah loss is big. I do not know why you agree to play Coastal Carolina, less than thirty minutes away from Conway. If they had won they would be playing Baylor today, followed by Mississippi State or Villanova. Instead, they are playing Ohio, followed by Middle Tennessee State or Tulane. |

If the Pac-12 did not stumble, that would be news...LOL! Now to see how many bowl games our conference loses. Even if Oregon gets a CFP slot, does anyone think they will win?

If they had won they would be playing Baylor today, followed by Mississippi State or Villanova. Instead, they are playing Ohio, followed by Middle Tennessee State or Tulane. I think you answered your question from sentence 2 in sentence 3. It’s a tourney and Utah had the misfortune to be matched up with a very good Coastal team in game 1. Coastal was beating Baylor today by 1 at halftime, and then lost one of their best players early in 2nd half. Probably worst loss was the UCLA one. They were up by 7 in second half, but Hofstra’s experience overcame the UCLA’s talent and inexperience. There are some very talented newcomers in league, but that also means inexperience. Hoping that Beavers with the experience of main core can take advantage of that and win some games early in conference slate that might be tougher later. |

Closing teams out and doing it with contempt. Would like to see that. |

ASU nearly beat Virginia this morning. Conference really could have used that one. It was a neutral game, but every 50/50 ball went to Virginia. For once, I kind of agreed with Hurley as he was having a meltdown over the officiating. ASU was in the process of separating in the second half and then the officiating tightened up and the Devils who had spent a bunch of energy in the early part of the game ran out of gas and couldn't buy a shot (or a call) in the end.
Bummer.

Between Bobby Hurley and Tony Bennett, it's an easy choice for a ref on a 50-50 call.

#23 Colorado struggled to beat Wyoming at home today - ties at 15 at the half, and only up 4 with 10 mins to go. Pulled away for a 15 point win.
Utah loses again to Tulane.
Stanford is undefeated against a bunch of softies, plays OU tomorrow in a game that will reveal something.

They have Clemson next in same tourney. Noticed the Buffs were 9 of 20 on FTs |

Stanford won convincingly Guess their SOS in the 344 range didn't mean much?! The Pac12 appears to be much improved top to bottom. I was even impressed with Cal vs ranked teams in extended minutes of their games. |

Except that other team to the south of course.
