So Portland heads into the conference tournament at 20-12 with a date against Seattle (21-11) in the 1st round. A loss would probably bump us just out of the tournament. As it stands right now, Bubble Watch has us in. With a SOS of 14 (higher than anyone in the WCC) we're probably safe, but...a win for sure would seal it and naturally we'd just like to see them win the whole damn thing and leave nothing to chance.
We blow out Seattle 100-52, but the following night lose to #1 seed Pacific 88-74. Bubble Watch says that we're now a 3-bid league with all three of us as locks for the tournament. With our RPI (16) and SOS, we ought to be fine. We might be in decent position seeding wise to pull an upset or two, because of how stuff works. But we'll find out how Selection Sunday goes.
