I think the re-emergnce of the Pac 12, with several very decent teams, is one of the big storries. |
UCLA, USC, Stanford, Cal, Oregon State, Washington and Arizona State are all legit NCAA teams this year. Will the conference get 7 bids though? Will UCLA be able to overcome it's tough non-conference?
Really interesting to see this race come Feb/March. |
I'm going to wait until UCLA wins a game before deciding they're in. Granted, they've had a really brutal first four games, but the JMU loss is one to make you wonder. That said, it's good to see the Pac-12 doing well. |
Fair point, but you can almost expect a freshmen-heavy team to lose on the road to a pretty solid JMU squad in their first game of the season. I think Close scheduled them a bit too tough, to be honest - we'll see if their confidence is shaken or they are considered battle tested for the next round.
Also, in my round-up of Pac-12 teams, I didn't mention Washington State. I think right now you have to say they're a better team than UCLA.
It's a good year for the league.
