Pac 12 Could Only Send One Team To Dance

Given the six power conferences' built-in advantages over the rest of college basketball, it seems hard to believe that any would have only one team in the NCAA Tournament.

Since 1980, when the field expanded to 48 teams and conferences were allowed more than two representative, none of the six have ever sent only one team. The Pac 12 may just make history.

The conference leader, California, is really the only team on pace for an at-large bid. Co-leaders Washington and Arizona are close to at-large territory. This disaster really stems from the conference's lousy non-conference results, which sank Pac 12 teams' ratings percentage index numbers.
