PAC 12 Basketball Power Rankings

by CODawg on Jan 18, 2012 1:17 PM PST

I am going to post what I think are my power rankings in the conference so far. Feel free to critique and post your own power rankings.

1. California 15-4 5-1 - Class of the confence

2. Stanford 15-3 5-1 - Likely tied for first after this weekend setting up the Bay Area clash next weekend.

3. Oregon 13-5 4-2 - oh how this pains me, but they are the only team to win a road series all year after an impressive trip to Arizona. And I am trying to be objective

4. Washington 11-6 4-1 - Nice victory over WSU. A sweep this weekend would move them to the top

5. Arizona 12-6 3-2 - shocked they lost to Oregon at home

6. UCLA 10-7 3-2 - Improved but a disappointment this year

7 CU 11-6 3-2 - Nice story, great coach, but only real victory is against UW at home. And we all now how UW is on the road.

8. ASU 6-11 2-3 - Because they are they only other team to win more than once in the conference

9. Utah 4-13 1-4 Because they beat WSU

10 WSU 9-8 1-4 because they beat OSU

11 OSU 11-7 1-5 - after 10-2 non-conference record. they were probably rated 3rd in the conference

12. USC 5-13 0-5 - no conference victories. I bet the Trojans wish they never heard of OJ Mayo. Or anyone named OJ.

Seperation

The conference is going to separate out over the next couple of weeks and the main contenders will rise above the pack. Fingers crossed for a sweep this week by UW.

I agree

Oregon, Arizona and UCLA are the unknowns for me. Stanford could fall off too.

I think its going to be between Oregon, Stanford, UW and Cal.

Zona, UCLA, OSU and perhaps CU will comprise the chase group with the rest bringing up the rear.

Cal just took (another hit)

Richard Solomon was declared academically ineligible for the rest of the season. It’s not a critical loss, but their depth took a noticeable hit.

I hate your power rankings......But agree with them

If we can pull out these two wins this week, we will be in first. I’m hoping we can. I wasn’t very impressed with our win against WSU, but a wins a win. Gotta start somewhere, and in the second half of that game, we looked more like a team than all season.

Let’s go Dawgs! Beat the Bears!
