Would be interesting, intriguing, but Houston is one of the top 2 #1 seeds, etc, and would be one of the toughest match ups for WSU.
It would be better for WSU to go 4-1, finish in 1st place, then win 2 games in PAC tourny, and then be seeded as a 3,4,5 seed, so that WSU wouldn't have to play a 1,2,3 seed until if make Sweet 16/Elite 8.
Last thing WSU wants to do is face a Houston type in the Round of 32 round 2 game.
We beat zona I think we catapult to a 3-5 seed. Huge opp for a resume booster. You can’t sweep a #1/2 seed team, have the record we do, and not be considered one of the top 12-15 teams in the country
Yeah, a late season road win against a 1-seed is a resume finisher as long as there a no "tumbles". Even a competitive or "good loss" would help. Great job of getting in position. We will see how they finish.
There is not likely to be a tumble unless injuries, etc, as a 20+ win team with 5 games to go + PAC tourny, that 6,7,8 HIGH QUALITY WINS, and has won 10+ games out of 11 games, etc, USUALLY does not stumble, tumble.
WSU will likely either go 4-1, 3-2.
5-0 isn't likely, and 2-3, 1-4, 0-5 is extremely BLOODY DAMN UNLIKELY.
It's VERY LIKELY that WSU goes 4-1,3-2, wins at least 1 PAC tourny game.
WSU might lose to EITHER ASU or UCLA or UW, in addition to semi probably losing to Arizona on road.
As long as WSU does not lose to 10-16 USC in Pullman, WSU should be fine.
And wSU will probably not lose to USC,
