Arkansas did beat both Baylor and UCONN. They lost to every other ranked team they played, but most of those losses were fairly close (within single digits). They're certainly capable of pulling off some shockers in the tournament. OR has only one top-25 win, vs. OSU.
I would like to win the PAC-12 tournament and remain the 2 or 3 overall seed. Dropping to the 4th overall seed means a harder regional final game against a better 2 seed. And I'd rather play Texas A&M or NC State in the national semifinal than UConn. All of this is assuming we get that far. But I would like the best possible road because this tournament is wide wide wide open and we have as good a chance to win as any other top team.
