It'd be nice to get to the regional finals.

FINAL FOUR, BABY! You heard it here first... ;-) I would love it... but it would take some top seeds getting knocked out. We just are not one of the top four teams out there on paper, by the eye test, or any other measure. Watching games this weekend I was astounded how big and athletic some teams are... very tough road to just get to regional Final. Go Beavs |

Notre Dame is one of the top 4 teams, yes? Did we not lose to them by 1, on the road, without Sydney? That being the case, it does seem possible that OSU could beat them, no?

I'm not sure we're quite a Final Four team yet either but I would certainly expect that we should make it to the Sweet 16 and maybe even Elite 8. Granted I haven't seen a bracket yet so I'm just going off of team performance NOT bracket match-ups.

Anything less than elite 8 will be a disappointment. Making the final four is not out of the question if the bracket falls right. Anything beyond that would be a welcome surprise.
The team is built to make a tournament run this year. Loosing way too much talent in the senior class to be in this position next year. I think they will be ready.

Elite Eight is my honest expectation, but I would not rule out Final Four. I'll go to Indianapolis, if that is the case.

I'll go with the Elite 8 also, but it is going to take some luck to advance further. Will probably have to shoot lights the rest of the way due to the super athletic nature of the teams that we'd be facing. Honestly, I for one did not think we'd win the pac12 championship the way the last few regular season games played out. But we came together and did it. So with that, hey, anything is possible. |

Agree... if the NCAA plays out like the Pac12 tourney we can get to Elite 8 or further... Having both Stanford and ASU out was a factor. All things being equal having to beat Stanford in semis then ASU in Final would have been tough. If we can get similar "breaks" it would be sweet. But, like every tourney it's sometimes not about 'you', but the match ups, injuries( or players returning from injury), and who gets upset. No matter who (ok... not UConn) it takes some luck to make a deep run. |
