PAC 12 Conference report Nov. 29

Conference Best
UCLA- despite the loss to Gonzaga, the Bruins are still the team to beat
Trending up: Teams moving up the seed list
USC– The Trojans are 6-0. Best win is against San Diego St.
Arizona– The Wildcats defeated #4 Michigan and are 6-0. They are safely in the bracket and moving up
Bubble: Teams either in or out of the bracket
Colorado- Buffs are 6-1 after a tough loss to Southern Illinois. Why up? 6 wins and a conference opening win. This is enough to get the Buffs on our radar. Out of bracket for the moment
Utah– The Utes are 5-1 with the loss coming to BYU. They are out of the bracket but on the radar of teams to watch
Trending Down: Teams that are dropping down the seed list or out of our bracket
Oregon- The Ducks are 3-3 and falling fast. Two losses in the Maui Invitational doesn’t help the resume. The losses are to tournament quality teams so the Ducks can rebound from their early struggles
Oregon St- The Beavers were coming off an elite 8 run but find themselves 1-6. Not good.
Key Games
