Projected seed: 11 (automatic qualifier)
The Ducks have a mixed bag when it comes to their NCAA Tournament resume. On the one hand, they've got some grit, pulling out tough victories in close games against Colorado and Utah and even toppling a highly touted Arizona squad during their tourney run, not to mention taking down UCLA twice, showcasing their ability to handle pressure and perform in clutch situations. But then, you can't ignore their stumbles against Stanford and California, the kind of losses that can leave a committee skeptical. The win against Arizona is a bright spot that can't be overlooked, offering a snapshot of their potential, and their late-season push, including a strong conference tournament showing, paints a picture of a team hitting their stride at the right time. Yet, they don't have the kind of dominant and consistent record you’d like to see when the bubble starts to tighten. Oregon must capitalize fully on any opportunities left and hope that their victories against high-profile opponents weigh heavier than their unexpected losses.
