Last regular season Pac game. Will be sad for me as I grew up in a household with all Pac’ers except my Mother.

Let’s put an exclamation point on a great season and a great PAC legacy.

I thought the same thing. Could have sworn it was a mid-afternoon game.
Of the 12 coaches, Rush picked the one whose fans have the deepest passion, the longest memories, the greatest lung capacity and … did I mention deep passion?

In this instance, it's OK with me - I want to check out KU/Houston & Kentucky/Tenn. in the afternoon

My mom told me stories of how some people in Tucson didn't want us to move from the WAC to the PAC. Sounded like a funny time to live in Tucson. Now pretty much everyone is excited to join THE basketball conference. How times change...

Let's show the Big 12 we're coming for them.

In retrospect, UA football sucked in the WAC too.

I don't see UA FB winning the Big 12 either.

Your mom may have dementia - Tucson was thrilled to get into the Pac! Especially basketball/Snowden fans!

Most fans I knew thought the WAC was as good of a basketball conference, and the 'Cats would immediately be competitive, not to mention play UCLA twice a year

1290 says this USC starting lineup is a couple possessions away from being undefeated in the PAC

Edit: With lots of injuries, 6-2 with this lineup with 2 narrow losses.

I think it’s because they have not had their full lineup all year. I think they have the double OT loss to CU has the only blemish when they have had their full squad.

This one will be very tough I think. USC will let it fly and we might start slow with a big win hangover. Need to pound them on the boards

Does Ballo score tonight and draw fouls? If so could be a blow out. Just 18 minutes played for Ballo last time out

Or does USC get him in ball screens for open jumpers for their very capable guards. Boogie leads the PAC from 3.

Here we go.

Two hours of listening to the talking heads tell us that:

Bronny James is King James son.

He's really good.

He wants to play in the NBA with his dad

Did we tell you that Lebron James is his dad???

Personally, I can't fathom how Enfield has kept his job. He has been the King of doing the least with the most.

Somewhere down the road I expect to find out that he was paying the players before NIL became legal.

I don't see how UCLA and USC enter the Big 10 with their terrible coaches. That mediocrity wont fly anymore.

It’s a perfect fit for USC basketball. They get a couple real good players every year, good preseason hype…then nothing happens.

It’s perfect.

Off topic, but the Nike sponsored teams’ players seem to wear Kobe 8s, which are the most comfortable basketball shoes ever. The insert they come with is really comfortable and the grip is excellent, but Nike makes it impossible to purchase the reissues. Why does Nike cater to the Bots that buy up the most popular shoes?

This is a classic trap game since we only have seeding to play for. I'm sure we'll get it together soon.

A bit too much hero ball coupled with sloppy ball handling.

KJ requested a screen and Keshad ignored him on that last play
