EastCoastFan Posted July 13, 2019 Author Share Posted July 13, 2019 Victories that if they happened, (sunshine and Kool-Aid here) would change the impression of the Pac-12 being a conference that has lost it's mojo: UCLA over North Carolina at T-Mobile Oregon taking the Battle of Atlantis in three games in the Bahamas (likely need to beat Seton Hall, Gonzaga, and either UNC or Michigan) Washington over Baylor in Anchorage Colorado over Kansas at Allen Fieldhouse Arizona State taking the Air Force Tipoff in Connecticut (Mohegan Sun) over St. Johns and Virginia UCLA taking the Maui Invitational, likely facing Kansas and Michigan State Utah over Kentucky at T-Mobile Arena Arizona over Gonzaga, home game at McHale If somehow Pac-12 teams could win a fair share of these contests, the image of our league would be vastly improved.
