The Pac-12 remains on track to collect a load of NCAA Tournament bids.
Comment: Cameron Brink was pulling away from Haley Jones as Stanford’s best player until last week, when Jones had major double-doubles, including 25 points vs. Utah and 18 rebounds vs. Colorado. She is the Pac-12 Player of the Week and is up to 30 career double-doubles, seventh most in school history.Comment: The Utes were only down five points at Stanford through three quarters before giving up the first five points in the fourth and never recovering.
Comment: A case can be made for elevating the Bruins to No. 2 in the power ratings after the road wins, but neither was convincing enough to make that move in advance of a game at Utah on Sunday. This weekend is important for UCLA and Utah in regard to postseason seeding, with both currently projected by ESPN to host first/second rounds games in the NCAAs.NET ranking: No. 22
Comment: The Hotline still is going with Colorado ahead of Arizona based on the Buffaloes’ head-to-head win Jan. 13. Colorado never led but played decently at Stanford despite receiving just one bench point. The Buffs erupted for 30 points in the fourth quarter to get past Cal.Comment: The Wildcats ended a two-game losing streak and played well enough against ASU, particularly Esmery Martinez and Shaina Pellington .
Comment: With four straight wins, USC is the hottest team in the Pac-12 — although it required overtime against Washington to get there. The Trojans can solidify their NCAA Tournament chances with a road split against the Mountain schools. Six of their eight February games are at home, and six are against teams currently unranked by the AP.Comment: The Ducks are a bit of a mystery right now, losing three of their last four games by a combined 12 points.
