How bad is the PAC 12? (Original Post) El Supremo Mar 2012 OP
The PAC12 apologists have been extremely quiet this year. Amazing, isn't it! madinmaryland Mar 2012 #1

Good wins vs Oregon and California. They actually downgraded in opponent from Cal to Arizona.

I would like to see Arizona left out but Cal deserves to go. They're good team.

to not go to the tournament after winning one of the major six conference's regular season.

And Cal only got in for a play-in game.

They had plenty of chances to make the tourney based on their regular season opponents, give it to a small or mid-conference team that maybe didn't get a good look because of the "stature" of their conference.

Berkeley might as well not even shown up.

Why do we even have to have these "first four" games? Has any team ever advanced? I seem to remember one did. Was it Butler?

I may change my pick of Colorado over UNLV. The PAC12 absolutely sucks!
