UCLA did what it needed to do to (barely) keep its tournament hopes alive by beating the Oregon schools. Now, it closes out with three games on the road against Utah, Colorado and Southern Cal. The scenarios go like this:
- 2-1: Likely in the NCAA tournament, but some sweating, especially if a number of upsets happen in the conference tournaments. That said, still likely in.
- 1-2: Likely out of NCAA tournament barring winning Pac-12 tournament, but still a shot. They will need help (e.g. no or few conference tournament upsets and failures by some other bubble teams) and likely a good showing in the conference tournament.
