In all honesty, I think this isn't the same deep conference that sent five teams (UCLA, USC, Oregon, Arizona, Stanford and Washington State) to the tournament last year, and could have potentially (Arizona State) sent one more.
UCLA has been as good as advertised with their prized recruiting class from this year (Jrue Holiday and Drew Gordon, anyone?) and point guard Darren Collison (14.1 ppg, 5.1 assists/game) opting to stay in school. Washington has been solid with the "other" Isaiah Thomas and Justin Dentmon giving the Huskies a formiddable outside combo to team with the guy with no neck and double-double machine inside, Jon Brockman. Arizona State has disappointed with the amount of talent they have in stars James Harden and Jeff Pendergraph, and the rest of the conference, with the exception of the youthful Ducks, being mediocre.
At any rate, here are the rankings from Yahoo! sports.
