What a difference a year makes. Here are the Pac-10 standing as the regular season has drawn to a close, and all teams head into the conference tournament in Los Angeles this weekend:
Stanford
UCLA
USC
California
Arizona State
Oregon
Washington
Arizona
Washington State
Oregon State
Who would have predicted UCLA would be second in the conference?
That Arizona State would have lost so many games?
That Washington State would turn around a horrific start and work their way to ninth?
That Oregon State would be so bad?
It’s been an interesting season, to say the least. But I see a Stanford-UCLA final a week from today, unless there is a major, major upset.
