Arizona is the best team in the Pac12. And why the hell aren’t Dayton and Michigan ranked? Dayton easily looked like a top 25 team in the country when they displayed their talent in the Maui tourney, and Michigan was an unbelievable buzzsaw in the Battle 4 Atlantis. The way big Blue tore through some of the other high ranked teams in the country, they looked like a legit 1 seed in the big dance.
Business as usual for Oregon. Even when they have a decent team, they prove they can’t hang with the big boys every single time. The Ducks are probably the most overrated team so far this season. They only have one real ball handler who can run their offense (Pritchard), they don’t have any really good lights out 3 point shooters and their bigs are clumsy and don’t finish strong around the rim…. not to mention that their bigs don’t even have a nice soft touch around the rim if they are going to play finesse like they do, as opposed to attacking the rim. They also suck at FT shooting. The Ducks may progress this season, but they certainly aren’t the 11th best team in the country. Idk if I would even have Oregon in my top 25 quite frankly. Michigan and Dayton both deserve to be in the top 25 more than Oregon. Even if Oregon gets better this season, they are still too flawed and just don’t have the shooters/ball handlers/back court necessary to make a run in the big dance. The sweet 16 is the absolute ceiling for the Ducks this year, but they will need to catch some lucky breaks in terms of who they draw in the first weekend of the tournament… otherwise, they won’t even make it to the second weekend.
Love that Oregon tests these teams, Oregon has all new guys and they are still figuring out how to play together. They are also lacking a down low presence, hoping N'Faly Dante can fill that gap and make an already scrappy team a legitimate contender.

Cole is Anthony top ten pick
#32 for unc look lost af
End of the year, Bacot will be a problem, more than he already is. Add that with Anthony and man, it’s going to be some beautiful ball
Needed this one. Still can't figure out if we are any good
