Starts on Wednesday.
Seeds are being determined by win-loss % so with all the unequal games played, it could have some slightly bizarro seeding ramifications.
Top four have a first day bye and they are pretty much set.
Quarterfinals on Thursday
Semis on Friday
Finals on Sunday
Currently seeds are:
1. Stanford 19-2
2. Arizona 13-3
3. UCLA 12-4
4. Oregon 10-6
5. OrSU 7-6
6. Colorado 8-8
7. Wazzu 9-10
8. USC 8-10
9. ASU 6-9
10. Utah 4-15
11. Washington 3-13
12. Cal 1-12
bracket is here: https://pac-12.com/2021-pac-12-womens-basketball-tournament
So first day:
OrSU plays Cal
Colorado plays Washington
Wazzu plays Utah if Utah can play otherwise a bye?
USC plays ASU

I prefer your wording "Stanford 18-2 will be 19-2 IF they beat California on Sunday" to "Cal 1-12 AFTER they lose to Stanford"
Oregon St gets 5th with a win. Washington St gets 5th with a win and losses by Colorado and Oregon St.

Same. Although there's a little blip in consistency. "Wazzu 8-10 will be 9-10 if they beat Wash Sunday" seems to imply the Cougs may not win, whereas "Washington 3-13 after they lose to Wazzu" says right there that they will. Well, which is it, myrtle – hmm? :wink: :lol: |
This grammar policing is irrelevant, Myrtle. According to the bracket you linked, TBD wins every game and the tournament. Bet the farm on them. |

It was about this time last year when I was boarding the MegaBus in L.A. to go to Vegas and attend the 2020 Women's Pac-12 tournament.
Came back sick as eff.*
And then the rest of 2020 happened!

*note: at the time I was pretty sure it was COVID, but I've since taken the antigen test, which says it wasn't COVID, so I dunno, maybe it wasn't?

What's the reliability factor on the antigen tests, I wonder? Are you going this year?

I've heard the antigen tests are actually *NOT* super-reliable, but what do I know? I'm a sitcom hack, I'm definitely not a scientist.
And no, not going this year, 'cause the only spectators allowed in the P12 tournament this year are friends and family. But already looking forward to 2022!

| Utah at the last minute had to cancel their game today vs. Colorado cuz of covid-related issues within the Utes’ program. It is undetermined whether or not Utah will be able to compete in the Pac-12 Tournament. (Link here)

With OSU's win today vs. Oregon, the Beavers move up to the 5-seed, and potentially project to a quarterfinals rematch against the Ducks in Vegas.
As a UCLA fan, I'm very happy to have the Beavs elevate themselves out of that 6-seed, because that'd have forced my 3-seed Bruins to have to tangle with them in the quarters, and I'd prefer to have none of that squad until it's absolutely necessary, thank you very much.
Note: all of the above assumes that a potential Utah scratch from the tournament doesn't somehow goof up the seedings in some unforseen way (they're currently sitting in the 10 slot).

I suppose that might be a *bit* of a bummer for the 3-seed (UofA), who then has to face a fully-rested opponent in the quarters, while all of the other top seeds (1, 2 & 4) would get quarterfinal games against opponents who'd just played 24 hours earlier.
But on the other hand, it *is* COVID times, and people gotta roll with stuff.
So I dunno.

But it would be the same issue for whichever top four team which gets a 'fresh' team rather than one that had to play a game the day before.

Yeah, true. You're right.

According to the Oregon news:
It's doubtful if Paopao can play in the P12 tourney
And they claim that OrSU would get the first round bye if Utah is out, so it would be Ore-OrSU again on Thursday. Don't know if this is true, but it would seem to be the 'right' thing that the four seed would get the fresh team.

Yes, I agree, that seems like the best option.

The Pac 12 has stated that if a team cancels before 11am Tuesday the bracket will be redone. After then the bracket will stay as is and games would be forfeited.

I'm predicting an Oregon-Wazzou final. 
That could throw a wrench into my prediction.
