I don’t ever want to hear a PAC fan whining about their draw in the tournament again. My opinion was the PAC/B1G got mostly favorable draws in the tournament this year. The B1G got soft subregionals for their seeds, except Minnesota. The Big 12 certainly can't complain and I think the SEC can't really either. The ACC is the one who got f*cked. But seriously, Oregon getting Kansas, Wazzu getting Northern Colorado (this was a gift), Washington getting Hawaii/Miss St., Stanford getting sent to Minnesota, UCLA getting UCF/Pepperdine isalso reasonable. UCLA should have been seeded higher and Utah should have been seeded over Florida, but I see the UCLA issue as mostly not a huge issue. Utah's case is the issue, they shouldn't be playing BYU if they're throwing away seeds to Florida. But all in all, this is not a year for the PAC-12 to complain. There were a couple UW fans who think they were underseeded, but, I don't have any sympathy there. And well, I think USC was more deserving than Kansas State to get in the tournament, so, whatever draw they would have gotten, even a 4-seed at Creighton, I would have accepted! |

Her future is beach volleyball . why? i haven't seen her play beach, but she is not tall enough to be a Big and that means she's a Little... which means she needs to be a really good setter. Is she? A fine plyer but I agree that OR chances won't change unless they get a huge hammer on the left and Brooke fills the McClure role imho |

Oof Oregon passed a 1.96 to Kansas 2.04 Don’t say this in front of the ‘passing doesn't win first round matches’ crowd. |

I wonder how much time Oregon spent watching Kansas film vs Creighton film this week. It just seemed they weren't prepared to play Kansas. And.... I would imagine Creighton has watched more Oregon film after the selection show and may be scrambling a bit today. Kinda wish it was a noon match today and not 7pm. GO HAWKS!!

yikes, I'm glad that Lazaro is going to Louisville and will not be ruined by Wise. Keller did her no favors She went to USC at the worst time ever. She would have had more significant impact in other programs. I hated her so much as a UW fan lol I hope she does well in Louisville. |

I don’t ever want to hear a PAC fan whining about their draw in the tournament again. So, Michigan appears to be about to lose in the first round, and Purdue seems to be on track to lose at home in the second round. Does that mean we can never hear any B1G fans whining about their draw in the tournament again? |

I don’t ever want to hear a PAC fan whining about their draw in the tournament again. Actually the PAC is doing pretty good in spite of the slights. It appears the only losses for the weekend will be a Timmer-less WSU expected loss to Baylor and Oregon's loss to a Kansas team that just took down 14th seeded Creighton. Kansas has some great players on that team. Utah with BYU could be another one, but again, not a bad or unexpected loss. |
