For the WCC to get three teams (GU, St. Mary's, San Diego) into the NCAA tournament this year, it starts right now. It means all three teams winning a large percentage of their OOC games, particulalry taking out some of the bigger name teams on the schedule. There has been a lot of talk on the board about what these three will do to each other during conference play and who will rise to the top. But realistically most of the tournament hopes for all three reside in performing OOC. If all three come into conference with outstanding records, big wins against quality opponents, and then simply beat up on each other while winning their games against the lower tier teams, that's how a case will be made in March.
It starts tonight. It means St. Mary's taking care of Seattle Pacific and then Fresno St. It means San Diego stepping up big time in their first two games and successfully completing large challenges against UNLV and Nevada. And we all know what it means GU needs to do against it's OOC lineup.
Here's to the WCC stepping up, starting right now.
