I'm guessing that because so many folks are now likely talking about - "why are they 10?" in the next real crunch of the NET we'll see UO drop.
Just my thoughts. GO BEAVS.

On Charlie Creme's video, he said he's still concerned about OSU's lack of games being a problem. They've played exactly 2 games less than UCLA, yet I don't recall anybody every discussing UCLA potentially not having enough games to qualify - I don't get it.

This is not an ordinary year, I will give that to anyone who is trying to figure out brackets and who is in/out of the tournament. I'm only using Oregon here because this is an easy look/comparison not because I hate them  . Oregon did finish ahead of the Beavs in conference play....again, conference play was messed up because of the number of games each team played. But, if you look at their records right now, Oregon State has a better winning percentage than Oregon (One Beaver victory was against lower division), Oregon State beat Oregon 2 out of 3 games, Oregon State beat UCLA, and Oregon State has more wins against top 25 Net teams, but Charlie projects the Beavs a 9 seed and the ducks a 5 seed. Again, crazy year, but despite the Beavs horrible start, they have better credentials than the Ducks, at least when it comes to who they have beaten. I'm not even saying he is wrong. I'm mainly saying it's a messed up year, and in addressing your topic of UCLA, I think most teams that were highly thought of before the season are getting some benefit of doubt, unless they bombed early like the Beavs did. The Beavs are still playing catchup in the minds of those who make these projections. The Beavs win over Western Montana is a non-counter for most, so the Beavs record is only 10-6 in that sense. |

I really think Charlie is overstating the not-enough-games mantra. It might have been true three weeks ago when we had 12 games in the books, but with 18 games played, the committee will have plenty of data to judge us. I expect something more like a 6 or 7 seed - better if we beat Stanford. Our NET should be around #30, which would give us an 8 seed, but our trajectory clearly deserves a bump of at least one or two seeds.
