Pac 12 basketball

Saturday's game is going to be a packed house at Cal. They've been circling this day ever since Rabb committed. It's going to come down to defense in the paint and rebounding. Rabb has the ability to disrupt what we do down there by himself.

Glad the Ducks didn't let your boys get into a groove in the second half. That team is so scary when they are in the zone.

Yeah, both teams are pretty similar in how they play. I figured whichever one got a good run in the 2nd half would win and your Ducks got a 13-1 run. Congrats.

Looks like Zona has things in hand now. Once Stanford started throwing up desperation threes to try and stay in contact it was over.

Still finished with 16 turnovers, but I think the key is going to be neutralizing the homecourt advantage. AZ always travels well, and the team flips a switch when they hear UofA chants.

I'm pretty stoked that we don't have to go to MKA this year. Ducks are putting together a nice home winning streak.

11 Pac teams in the RPI top 64.*

*RPI doesn't mean shit but it's still a great sign.

I was pretty surprised to see Oregon at number 7 RPI, 8-1 versus teams in the top 50 RPI. Unranked, of course.

I like the KenPom rankings a lot more though. Oregon is 25th in those, 3rd in Pac-12 behind USC (23rd) and Arizona (11th). Only other Pac-12 team in the top 50 is Cal at 42.

I still think Arizona and Oregon are the best two teams in the conference. I said at the beginning of the year that they were the team I feared the most.

We're without Trier and them without Wallace, but they have WAY less depth and Rabb will have to go up against two bigs at all times basically by himself down low. It's gonna be tough for them to contain us imo.

Cal needs a larger logo on their court.

Zona and Cal tied at 73 with 18 seconds left

Cal wins. Fans storm the floor

 

[WizardHawk]

Congrats Cal. Hell of a finish. No TO's down the stretch and a couple of players shooting out of their minds.

 

[WizardHawk]

Was a bit dicey with that first missed free throw. Zona didn't look good on that last play. Lost the handle on the rock and took an off balanced shot. Didn't deserve that win.

great game...storming was good for a laugh. (hell, I'd hit the floor too if I was there)

 

[CatsTopPac]

GG Cal! Thus is life on the road in the Pac.

 

[The Derski]

Cal played out of their minds in the second half, as is usual for almost every opponent Arizona plays . It was their Super Bowl.

 

[Monte Carlo Wildcat]

We need the ball in Kadeems hands in the final seconds. Not york; thats twice he ends the game with an empty posession.

 

[Arizona_Sting]

We need a point guard.

remember Arizona has the weakest SOS #134
(cannot wait to hear all the uofa fucks to comment on this)
ASU top 3 in the PAC, SOS. But I am fucking tired of losing close games.
Not to make excuses but Allen did walk and there was a no call.

What a friggin league

This is turning out just like the Football season did in the PAC they are eating themselves alive.
