  • Pac-12 tournament seed

    Great defensive effort tonight. After tonight's Pac-12 games our seeding becomes pretty simple. Win Saturday we'll be 1 or 2. Obviously, we would need Oregon to lose Sunday for a 1 seed. Assuming Colorado beats ASU tomorrow, if we lose Saturday we will be the 4 seed. We would play Oregon St. Oregon St is locked into the 5 seed unless ASU wins its last two games @Colorado, @Utah.

    I think you mean that Oregon State is locked in the 6 seed. Arizona is ahead of them, and swept the season series.

    I actually think the Beavers have a great shot of beating the Ducks. They have played the Ducks pretty well over the last couple of years, winning four of the last five.

      Arizona is ineligible for the tournament so everybody below them in the standings will be bumped up a seed.

    TV, Arizona is ineligible for Pac 12 tournament.
    OSU definitely has a shot. I watched the first game and OSU dominated them. But Oregon was without 2 or 3 guys because of Covid.

    Yeah, OSU has a shot. They typically make the Civil War interesting, they have some talented players and Tinkle knows Altman. Also, it's an away game for the Ducks.

    Duarte is a difference maker, and so is Omaruyi, but if OSU has a good shooting night and plays some tight defense they have a good shot at that game. Oregon can't take it lightly and they won't.

      OSU has a 3 game win streak against Oregon in Corvallis FWIW

        Tbh, the 2 seed is the better bracket. Colorado would be our likely semi finals opponent on the 1 side of the bracket.

          so true. i'd still take winning the pac-12 tho. (it's been too long!) it's lso tough to beat a good team 3x in the same season. revenge would be sweet!

        So the options are outright conference title but have to face CO, or second place conference finish but don’t face them as early? Real Sophie’s choice lol

          I'll take the conference title & worry about the conference tourney later.

        Assuming we win on Saturday and Colorado beats ASU tonight, then Colorado would be the 3 seed and the Ruins would be the 4 seed. If Colorado happens to lose tonight they'll be locked in at 4 and we can be no worse than 3rd.

          is it me, or does anybody else think ASU is a beats waiting to be unleashed?? i mean, goodness, they've been crushed by covid-19, but they have undeniable talent when they're all healthy. i give them a fighting chance to beat Colorado, even on the road. the sundevils also seem like a tough matchup for the buffs, despite losing by 11 on 2/11. anybody else agree?

            I disagree, I think ASU is little and barring a strong shooting performance from their stars they won't be able to defend Colorado. With Wright distributing and Battey down low and Horne on the wing, they can wear them down.

            That being said, Col did lose to Call and Wash U so... What do I know...

              Hurley is a screamer, and that act tends to wear thin after a while. Plus he's got some guys on that roster that other programs maybe didn't want so much for non-basketball reasons. And they have faced some adversity. . . I wouldn't be surprised if that team (ASU) is ready to quit.

              That said, the one thing we know from this season is that anybody can throw in a lot of shots at any time. A single game is just too small a sample size to mean much of anything about shooting percentages. So my conclusion is: who knows?
