Jaylen Clark done for the year

Sucks for the kid and UCLA. If they don't win the Pac12 tournament (and especially if the lose to someone other than Arizona), I wonder how far the committee will drop them. There is a precedent of hitting teams with a late season injury with a seed line drop (sometimes multiple).

Tennessee is looking at the same issue if they lose early in the SEC tournament, especially after losing to Auburn the other day.

I think AuHoosier already dropped his life savings on them.

Thought UCLA had a legit shot at a national title. Their style seems to translate to winning tournament games but that's a big blow for them.

 

[Kevin Bryan]

Luckily for them they are deep at guard. They'll miss his rebounding the most.

I agree. They were good enough with him IMO.

this blows, I feel UCLA will not be able to make it past sweet 16, maybe not even round of 32.

UCLA starting Center Adem Bona went down with a shoulder injury last night. No confirmation on the severity but it didn’t look good and he didn’t return

Oregon did on a couple years ago. Sometimes others step up and make a difference.

I was going to pick Oregon to win it all that year in 2017, but switched to Kentucky after Boucher's injury- Oregon still made the final four and gave UNC a run for their money!

Would have been an all PAC Northwest Championship that year if Oregon would have just boxed out on free throws late...

Tyger and Jaquez are enough to get them to the S16. They play solid enough defense with their other guys and they'll have a high seed.

The bozos at ESPN says that Tennessee is still a 3 seed and Missouri and Kentucky are 7 seeds.

I just do not see how UT is a 3-seed....I just don't. Finished behind UK, was swept by UK.....yet are 4 seed lines higher?

Not sure how ya come to that?

Because they have better wins probably. Beat Kansas and Alabama. And have a better overall record.

Are two wins worthy of 4 seed lines? I get it that UK's best wins are the two over UT. But 4 seed lines?

I could see them on the 4 line. Would be a "fun" matchup for a 1 seed in the S16

 

[winin11]

I hate it when I see a kid get a major injury simply for the fact they worked so hard to get where they are.Plus the fact that he is such a good player their team has depended on all year.

That is funny.

How do you explain the losses to Colorado, Kentucky (twice), Florida, Vandy, Missouri (twice) and lowly Auburn?

UT's out of conference schedule was not that great.

I simply don't understand the love affair with Tennessee as their point guard is out.

Good point, forgot their PG got hurt too. Who knows, we'll see where they end up, could see them anywhere from 3-5
