This is going to sound like sour grapes but isn\'t intended to be.  Does anyone else think the Pac 10 regular season doesn\'t prepare us well for the tournament?  I\'d have to look up how many regular-season and Pac-10 tournament games we\'ve lost in the last 4 years, but I\'m pretty sure it would be in the single digits.  But we can\'t quite get over the hump in the Final Four.  It\'s hard to see how we could play a much more difficult non-conference schedule.  I\'m going to say that beating Oregon and WSU by 30 doesn\'t do much to prepare us to play elite teams.
