Besides lack of Q1 wins and a weak road record, the other negative on CU's resume is its non-conference strength of schedule. So we can benefit quite a bit if Iona, Towson, Richmond, Milwaukee, CSU, FSU, Miami, Grambling, Utah Tech and UNCO all finish well. Pepperdine is done after losing to San Diego last night in the WCC tournament.
Of note for Pac-12 tournament, if Oregon & ASU win we'll have a 5-way tie for 5th and I have no idea how those tiebreakers would work out for P12T seeding. Looks like CU with the 3-seed will get the 6 vs 11 winner and the 11 will be Stanford, USC or ASU (ASU could also be the 6 from that 5th place tie if they win today).
I want nothing to do with Stanford. They're a tough match up for us and gave us everything we could handle at home. I'd take UCLA (revenge) on a neutral court above the other two.Would like to avoid USC and UCLA in our first game. High risk, low reward. Stanford would be nice.
I don’t think we match well with players like Bona (or UAs big “B”). These massive post players are this team’s kryptonite.I want nothing to do with Stanford.

Raynaud kicked our a$$ pretty damn good, if we're talking about bigs...I don’t think we match well with players like Bona (or UAs big “B”). These massive post players are this team’s kryptonite.
Weren't we in the thirties before this game? That's a huge jump.Up to 25 on KenPom after today’s win.
Yeah, 32 at game time.Weren't we in the thirties before this game? That's a huge jump.
Is that good? Tired of hearing about UU above us on the bubble.Utah lost at Oregon by 1.![]()
I think so. Ensures our win over the Ducks finishes as Quad 1 and also separates CU above Utah for NCAAT considerations.Is that good? Tired of hearing about UU above us on the bubble.
A bit of what other teams did. A bit of having good numbers added to our O, D and Rebounding metrics. I'll be very interested to see if the NET moves as favorably as KenPom did.I still don't understand how winning on the road at Oregon State is a bigger jump than Oregon.
Plus: **** Andy Enfield!USC over Zona by 13.
Our sweep of USC just got a lot stronger. They came in at #99 NET. It's a long shot that they finish with a Top 75 to make our road win Q1, but potentially if they follow this with a win or two in the P12T.
Looks like we get the winner of ASU/Utah. Bracket could not be much better for us. UA likely needs to get past USC and UCLA. If we be beat WSU even Lunardi would have to make us a lock. We should be in anyway unless there's a major meltdown.UCLA beats ASU and clinches the 5th seed. Buffs will play the winner of Utah/Stanford on Thursday. Need one more win.
