To help us prepare for the Madness and fine tune our bracket prediction skills, we'll be previewing each of the conference tournaments the next few days.What's at stake?
Would it be wrong to say the respect of Pac-10 officials are at stake? After the last week they could certainly use a weekend of cleanly officiated contests.
Arizona is likely in, but a loss to Oregon State would eliminate that thought. Oregon is the team that desperately needs a win. I've got them on the outside looking in as of today ('Cuse losing helps), so beating Washington State would be a huge boost.
Stanford could play there way into a 2nd seed with a win, maybe even a finals appearance if that loss was to UCLA.
USC can forget about there bad losses and get rolling again. They have as much talent as anyone which is why I'm picking them to win in their home town.
