Beats UCLA 65-61.

I don't know how much this impacts Oregon's chances of getting in the tourney, but it doesn't help.

It potentially hurts a lot. WSU was behind Oregon in the net and is still behind even after winning the Conference. WSU getting the auto bid puts one more team that was ahead of Oregon in the Net (ie Stanford, Utah) into the At-Large pool. Since Oregon is listed as the first team out on ESPN's bracketology putting that one higher ranked team in the pool could be all the difference in Oregon not making it.

Oregon was listed as the First Team Out in ESPN's latest WBB Bracketology so it does seem WSU getting in hurt them.

I definitely remember several years when being in the NIT WAS a big deal.

I remember Oral Roberts praying for the Ducks to win it all after his favorite 'Golden Eagles' lost to the Kamikaze Kids... Dang, I'm OLD!

I love my Ducks, but lets face it, this team has no business in the tourny. This is not a good basketball team.

Did you have a dinosaur for a pet when you were little too?

Well they likely wont get in now that U of Portland beat Gonzaga to get the WCC auto bid.

The thing is Oregon would beat the snot out of at least 20 of the 32 auto qualifiers so I don't mind if they get in. U of P is above average for the auto group but Oregon beat them by 40 points. In women's basketball the PAC-12 is just so strong that every night you face a team that would cake walk to the regular season championship of most every non-power 5 league (and a couple of those).

Very sad how far we have fallen. Just watching some of the vids from a few years ago when the team was in battles with great teams.
But people are right this team just has far too many weaknesses. Graves needs to pick up a post from portal.
