We have reached Christmas day which means that conference play is right around the corner and it’s a good time to stop and take stock of where the Pac-12 is positioned. Unfortunately, the answer is that things are somewhere between disaster and tire fire. Arizona looks like a legitimate national title contender. There’s also not another team in the league that I’d feel comfortable projecting to have better than a 60% chance to make the big dance.
I ranked teams here by resume points which are a rough assessment of each team’s accomplishments so far using the NCAA’s quadrant system.
