We would need to win the Pac-12 championship, ...

Why so?

Doesn't it depend at least a little on what the other teams in the 12-20 vicinity do?

To a slight extent.  But it would be hard to see how we would vault over other teams, even teams that lose in their conference tourneys, if we lose in our tourney as well.  Maybe if some of those teams are upset early and lose to bad teams, and we make it to the finals... but I think it is reasonable to speculate that barring surprises, we won't host unless we win the Pac-12 tourney.
