Sure. I watched UCLA vs Stanford, and my comment was more UCLA is not a top tier PAC12 team. UCLA has had no serious injuries and UCLA has one excellent player, Jordin Canada, and no 3-point shooters. UCLA (under their current coach) doesn't run any offensive plays, more of a high pick and roll with Canada. That's it. Stanford actually has good spacing, and players that understand how to run an offense. Stanford has been without a couple of players most of the season, and finally has everyone back (healthy). They handled UCLA last night by making other UCLA team members, other than Canada, have to beat them. Tara is a much better coach than Close. I'm an OSU Alum, and Beaver fan, and Stanford will come alive in PAC12 play. They will finish in the top 3. Oregon appears to be a top 3 PAC12 team. I would suggest that OSU, Cal, and ASU will be the other top 3 team.
Right now, other than Oregon, I'm not sure how good the PAC12 is at this point. OSU has played very well all year, minus the Duke game. But they have yet to play a team with multiple athletic 4's/5's. UCLA plays Cal tomorrow, so we'll get a look-see at Cal. ASU is always a tough out in the PAC12. Really, I only feel Oregon could (as of today) go a good long way in the NCAA tournament.
