Well, this is kind of a big one. A weird thing to say when the Bears are 13-2, but they are on a two game losing streak and a home sweep would raise the very real specter that these Bears aren’t ready for the step up in competition that is Pac-12 play.
Losing to ASU and OSU, while painful, is understandable. Losing to Oregon, without Sabrina Ionescu, would be a much bigger problem.
It’s tough to get a read on the Ducks. They have started conference play 0-3, and all 3 losses have been by at least 16 points.
