2023 Pac-12 Basketball Tournament odds released
Postseason basketball is here on the West Coast, with the Pac-12 Tournament getting underway on Wednesday. In what has been another down year for the conference, there is still time for teams to improve their NCAA Tournament resume.
T-Mobile Arena in Las Vegas is the site this season, spanning over four days. Odds for the Pac-12 Tournament have been released, with the favorite not being too big of a surprise. UCLA is looking to double up on conference championships this season, winning the outright regular season one.
Only one other team, Arizona, has been given a realistic shot of competing. With the two on opposite sides of the bracket, it’s clear who the oddsmakers expect to see in the championship game come Saturday night.
- UCLA Bruins +125
- Arizona Wildcats +180
- USC Trojans +600
- Oregon Ducks +830
- Arizona State Sun Devils +1800
- Washington State Cougars +1800
- Utah Utes +4500
- Colorado Buffaloes +5000
- Stanford Cardinal +6000
- Washington Huskies +10000
- Oregon State Beavers +60000
- Cal Golden Bears +75000
More on Pac-12 Tournament, heavy favorites
Beginning outside of the top two, USC and Oregon have a lot to gain from the Pac-12 Tournament. The Trojans are currently projected in the field by ESPN’s Joe Lunardi but are a 10-seed. An early slip-up could easily slide Andy Enfield’s team onto the bubble and make for a nervous Selection Sunday.
As for Dana Altman, Oregon projects as one of the ‘Next Four Teams Out’ from Lunardi. The Pac-12 just does not have enough quality opponents in order to climb up a few spots over the next few days. If the Ducks are going to dance, they will likely need to be cutting down the nets.

However, all eyes will be on Arizona and UCLA in Las Vegas. They have been the class of the Pac-12 this season and are the best hopes of bringing a national championship back to the Pacific Time Zone.
If Arizona and UCLA do meet in the final, it will serve as a tiebreaker. Both currently have one win on the season, doing so in front of the home fans. The Bruins closed out the regular season with a Senior Night win in Westwood over the Wildcats, currently having a ton of momentum.
Other games will be played in Las Vegas but everyone will be wanting to see a championship game between the conference’s only two highly-rated teams.
