UCLA has lost 5 straight games against #2 seeds.
Their last win over a #2 seed was in the 1995 National Championship when they defeated Arkansas.
| 1998 | Friday, March 20 | 6 | Kentucky | 2 | L 68 - 94 | 3 | 5 | Sweet Sixteen | |
| 2000 | Thursday, March 23 | 6 | Iowa State | 2 | L 56 - 80 | 3 | 6 | Sweet Sixteen | |

Yeah - I'm uncertain where @bannedman was going with that, but I think it was "reach the Elite 8." Or maybe that wasn't it.
Pac 12/Pac 10 has never had 2 teams in the Final Four in the same tournament.
This is the 7th time that Alabama has had the automatic bid in the tournament. The result the other 6 times:
5 losses in Sweet Sixteen
1 loss in First Round
5 losses in Sweet Sixteen
1 loss in First Round
Most losses without a win in Sweet 16 with automatic bid:
5 - Alabama
4 - Texas Tech
3 - Texas A&M
3 - Texas
3 - Miami, Ohio
Definitely a much higher level of basketball than what we played this year
As a P12 fan I think it just means there is more parity this year than normal, i.e., even as an 11, UCLA is really not that much worse than Bama as a 2.
Oregon, USC, and UCLA all get high caliber hoops recruits. Oregon State (Go Beavs!) are punching above their weight class doped up on some witch's brew of cow farts and underdog super strength.
Ps. First post on the BB forum. Hope no one minds if I stick around for the Ducks/Trojans.
