Ariz St 10-4
Oregon 10-5
Colorado 10-5
UCLA 10-5
Arizona 9-5
So, ummm, it is pretty tight there at the top.
Bobby's boys have a great chance to close the season strong and win the conference. They play at UCLA and USC this week (remember when UCLA was one of the worst major conference teams in the land back in December? They were 8-9 at one point earlier this year with some horrid losses) which will be tough but not at all unwinnable. They then close the season with home games against the two Washingtons, who are the weakest teams in the league. BracketMatrix has the Wildcats as a #8 seed at the moment, but it is not at all impossible to imagine them rising up a good bit if this win streak continues.
