PAC 12!
- Thread starter G- RUnit

So far a great tourney no doubt. Won’t get a single team in the Final 4.
Houston beats OSU
Michigan beats UCLA
Gonzaga beats either Oregon or USC

Every year they prove people wrong? Lol, no. This is the first year. It’s been a garbage league. The conference did improve this year and has performed very well in the tournament. Don’t insult my intelligence by saying “every year proves people wrong.”
That ASU SJU game was the worst basketball game I’ve ever seen, period.
Amazing tournament for the Pac 12. I like Dana Altman teams, but was happy to see them go. Back to the Pac, 11 and 12 seeds in the Great 8 (plus 6 seed USC).
In all seriousness, the PAC 12 has obviously had a fantastic tournament and probably a good enough one to make them the second best conference this season. I’m not too sure they “proved people wrong” any more than a team that starts badly and finishes strong has proved people wrong; they just started playing better.
The Big Ten was still the strongest by far this year despite the bad tournament.

You keep living in your dream world . Its obvious the big came up very small when it counted.
Stanford oddly collapsed after looking like a tourney team all year. Washington State at the end of the year looked almost as good as Oregon State and might have won a game or two in the tourney had they been in. I think it was the two Arizona’s that dragged the league down. Every year the PAC 12 is underrated and the numbers can lie. For the most part nobody sees them play. Kinda felt sorry for BYU too getting UCLA early because think they were pretty good this year too. Those who say the Bubble is so weak or weaker than ever and field shouldn’t be expanded well that goes out the window. UCLA proves it!!
Their perception is bad because they truly were terrible from 2017-2019. The 2019 Pac 12 was basically a mid-major conference. It's still a power conference so not surprising that they've recovered IMO.
Not sure what UCLA proves.. just that the 50th best team can get super hot and make the final four? I don't think we need more teams in the tournament.
