Versus Conference Adjustment
The Pac-9 Tournament has not even started yet and the conference already changed the schedule.
The bracket for the evening session of the Pacific Life Pac-10 Tournament on Thursday, March 11, has been adjusted. The first game of the evening session will now feature No. 2 seed Arizona State vs. No. 7 seed Stanford at 6:18 p.m. PT, while the second game of the session pits No. 3 seed Washington vs. No. 6 seed Oregon State at approximately 8:40 p.m. PT.
As the higher seed in the evening session, Arizona State earned the right to extra recover time should it advance to Friday's semifinal. With one less play-in game in this year's tournament, the Conference determined that the adjustment to the bracket was necessary for this year.
The Pac-10 Tournament gets underway at Staples Center in Los Angeles on Wednesday, March 10 with No. 8 seed Oregon taking on No. 9 seed Washington state at 8:10 p.m. PT.
"Arizona State earned the right to extra recover time should it advance to Friday's semifinal."
Translation - nobody gives a crap about the Washington-Oregon State game so we moved it to the graveyard shift.
I don't think anyone locally give a hoot about the tournament period.
With no USC and UCLA playing so bad this will be the weakest PAC 10 Tourney ticket ever.
I just want credit for being the first to point out last week that Scott would give more coverage to the Tournament this year then he has in prior years because SC cannot participate. So far my prediction is right on.
VB's is dead on about the coverage. How lame is that for the Daily Snooze.
