going into the tourney.
There is still tons of bball left. These next 5 games might just define their season. Home vs OSU, road vs. UW, WSU, and then home vs. Cal and Stanford. If they go 4-1 they will be fine. If they go 2-3 then it could get interesting. Committee usually does not like teams with losing league records. Here is a link for the list of those teams

It also hurts Utah that they only get USC on the road....and still have to go back to Oregon. Those look to be the top two teams right now.
