Pacific Life Pac 10 Tourney Predictions

Wednesday Games:
#8 Oregon State vs. #9 Stanford – It’s extremely difficult to beat a team three times in a season, and OSU will find that out the hard way.
#7 Washington State vs. #10 Oregon – Oregon hasn’t been competitive against the Cougs all season, little will change in a Cougar blowout.

Thursday Games:
#4 ASU vs. #5 Arizona – The Wildcats need a win to secure their spot in March Madness, but Harden and company will be to much once again for Jordan Hill and crew.
#1 Washington vs. #9 Stanford – The Huskies will blow away the hapless Cardinal, behind All Leaguers Brockman and Dentmon.
#3 California vs. #6 USC – USC has the talent to win this game, but Cal is a better team top to bottom.
#2 UCLA vs. Washington State – The Bruins will be looking for revenge after WSU knocked them out of at least a share of the conference title with a win at Pauley last month.

Friday Games:
#1 Washington vs. #4 ASU – The Huskies beat the Sun Devils twice in the regular season. ASU looks to change that trend, and they knock off the regular season Pac 10 Champions.
#2 UCLA vs. #3 Cal – UCLA’s defense will bother the Cal three point shooters, and the Bruins will move on to the Championship round behind the All-American play of point guard Darren Collison.

Championship game:
#2 UCLA vs. #4 ASU – While UCLA didn’t win the regular season conference title for the first time in three years, a conference tournament championship will have to do as they look to enter March Madness on a high note.
