So let's say the Beavers finish conference play 4-2, and then BBQ the conference tournament. What would that do for seeding? 4-2 clinches the Regular season title. You want to avoid losing to a team like Arizona State or California, which would really kill RPI. A nightmare BBQ scenario would be for Arizona State to leapfrog Oregon into fifth place (which they would by winning the series in Phoenix against Oregon this weekend). California is currently in eighth place and has the tiebreaker with teams 9, 10 and 11 and also would play Utah (team 7) for the tiebreaker in Berkeley the final weekend. You cannot be sure that Oregon State's RPI could survive a loss to both California and Arizona State. You can pretty much guarantee that Oregon State's RPI survives going 1-2, pitching Hunter, Hjerpe and Kmatz. That is, unless California loses to beat Oregon State twice. That would, again, have the potential to kill the Beavers' RPI. Also, they released the Pac-12 Tournament bracket. No crossover! Gross! Also, they make you win four straight, if you lose the first game. It looks more like a Big 12 Tournament than an SEC Tournament, which is too bad. Weird that they went with 2 divisions for 8 teams. No division bracket and you would only have to win 3 games to win it all. |

Where’s the money coming from ?… not PAC network.
They got a tourney deal with espn ?.. I haven’t seen….
i think if Beavs win reg season… tourney won’t matter. They’re a top 8 seed.
