Can we come close to either of these teams.….or is it a three team race to the top? How the Pac-12 has changed over the last 4 years!!! USC and UCLA were good…but nothing like today!! These two schools grouped with Utah, Colorado……not like it was before. You could also throw in WSU.

Over 13K fans at UCLA , finally a city / county of almost 13 million is supporting their WBB. Next year, away games will a longgg way away.

But the court level shots I saw showed the upper level mostly empty. I know LA crowds are notorious for leaving early but this was early in the 2nd half of a very tight game. |

Each of them plays Stanford only one time. Hence, Stanford has the EASIEST SCHEDULE IN THE CONFERENCE. Sure, Cal plays the same 4 teams only one time as well, but Cal plays Stanford twice, which makes their schedule harder than Stanford's. As if Stanford doesn't have enough built-in advantages already. WHAT A JOKE!!!! I bet one would have a hard time finding a similar schedule in the past where one top 5 wbb team in the pac12 was gifted such a lopsided advantage in scheduling compared to the other 4 (or the other 11 teams as well). |

UCLA several years ago had a similarly easy conference schedule compared to all the other top teams. I think the Bruins finished 2nd that year, but it was with a big asterisk. |
