Pac-12
Lockbox
Arizona (18-0) (5-0) RPI 3 SoS 26
Vital signs: 6-0 R/N, non-con SoS 33, 4-0 vs. RPI Top 50, 8-0 vs. RPI Top 100
Quality wins: @SDSU, N-Duke, @UCLA, @Michigan
Bad losses: nope
Pretty obvious #1 resume in the country.
Colorado (15-4) (4-2) RPI 19 SoS 13
Vital signs: 3-3 R/N, non-con SoS 19, 3-3 vs. RPI Top 50, 5-4 vs. RPI Top 100
Quality wins: Kansas, Oregon, Harvard
Bad losses: @Washington, probably
All their signature wins are at home. So at some point, they should want to add a couple road wins over at least bubble teams to really elevate their seed.
UCLA (14-4) (3-2) RPI 30 SoS 30
Vital signs: 3-3 R/N, non-con SoS 106, 1-2 vs. RPI Top 50, 5-3 vs. RPI Top 100
Quality wins: @Colorado, Arizona St?
Bad losses: @Utah
The non-con SoS isn't bad by any means, but it didn't produce a signature win, so the work has to be done in conference play. The marginal loss to Utah gave back a lot of progress.
Bubble
Oregon (13-4) (1-4) RPI 25 SoS 21
Vital signs: 4-2 R/N, non-con SoS 53, 1-2 vs. RPI Top 50, 5-3 vs. RPI Top 100
Quality wins: BYU, N-Georgetown, N-Illinois
Bad losses: @Oregon St? home to Stanford?
Big slide as of late for this game, and when you peek into the profile, they might actually be missing a win over a tournament team. They've got work to do.
California (14-4) (5-0) RPI 32 SoS 57
Vital signs: 4-4 R/N, non-con SoS 103, 1-3 vs. RPI Top 50, 4-4 vs. RPI Top 100
Quality wins: @Oregon, @Stanford, N-Arkansas
Bad losses: @UCSB, but not really
@Oregon is the win that elevates the profile from true bubble to just inside the bubble. Continue to do work, Cal.
Arizona St (13-5) (2-3) RPI 60 SoS 96
Vital signs: 4-4 R/N, non-con SoS 183, 0-3 vs. RPI Top 50, 1-5 vs. RPI Top 100
Quality wins: lolno. Marquette or @UNLV?
Bad losses: Washington, N-Miami
This is not a good resume, period.
Stanford (12-5) (3-2) RPI 55 SoS 46
Vital signs: 4-3 R/N, non-con SoS 78, 2-4 vs. RPI Top 50, 3-4 vs. RPI Top 100
Quality wins: @Oregon, @UConn
Bad losses: @Oregon St
However, this team has 2 road wins to lean on in case of emergency.
NIT watch
Utah (14-4) (3-3) RPI 133 SoS 254 - winless on the road, 4th easiest non-con in the country; however they did beat UCLA and BYU, so we'll monitor

Mountain West
Lockbox
San Diego St (14-1) (5-0) RPI 14 SoS 66
Vital signs: 7-0 R/N, non-con SoS 65, 2-1 vs. RPI Top 50, 4-1 vs. RPI Top 100
Quality wins: @Kansas, N-Creighton, Boise St?
Bad losses: none
Quantity may not be there. Quality is. They're contenders for the 1 line. Deal with it.
Bubble
New Mexico (13-4) (4-1) RPI 47 SoS 58
Vital signs: 7-2 R/N, non-con SoS 28, 1-2 vs. RPI Top 50, 3-3 vs. RPI Top 100
Quality wins: Cincy, @NMSU?, N-Marquette?
Bad losses: UNLV, NMSU?
They didn't master the computer profile like they did last year. As a clear #2 in the MW, should be fine, though.
Boise St (11-5) (3-2) RPI 52 SoS 50
Vital signs: 5-3 R/N, non-con SoS 77, 0-3 vs. RPI Top 50, 1-5 vs. RPI Top 100
Quality wins: Utah St and Utah?
Bad losses: Wyoming?
There's nothing even approaching a quality win here. Season basically boils down to 4 chances against SDSU and UNM
NIT watch
Utah St (11-5) (2-3) RPI 93 SoS 142 - lack of quality wins is the issue here too

Lockbox
Gonzaga (15-3) (6-1) RPI 20 SoS 59
Vital signs: 5-3 R/N, non-con SoS 58, 0-2 vs. RPI Top 50, 5-2 vs. RPI Top 100
Quality wins: St Marys, N-Arkansas, um...
Bad losses: @Portland?
You see the issue here - a startling lack of quality wins. They're not out of the woods yet.
Bubble
St Mary's (13-5) (4-2) RPI 51 SoS 64
Vital signs: 3-4 R/N, non-con SoS 91, 1-1 vs. RPI Top 50, 5-1 vs. RPI Top 100
Quality wins: @Boise St, sweep of Pacific? North Dakota St
Bad losses: Santa Clara, N-George Mason, @Hawaii?
Not much good outside of one win to say about this one.
BYU (12-7) (5-2) RPI 40 SoS 14
Vital signs: 5-6 R/N, non-con SoS 4, 1-4 vs. RPI Top 50, 3-4 vs. RPI Top 100
Quality wins: N-Texas, N-Utah St, @Stanford
Bad losses: @Loyola Marymount, @Utah? @Pepperdine?
That great SoS keeps them alive for now, and they juuuust did enough against it to have a chance. They've got to stop losing marginal road games, though.
