The Wildcats are expected to be a No. 1 seed and open in San Diego on Friday.
LAS VEGAS — For the first time in nearly two decades, virtually no suspense awaits the Arizona Wildcats on Selection Sunday over an expected NCAA Tournament placement.
Arizona won the Pac-12 regular-season title by three games, lost only three times during the regular season and on Saturday was ranked No. 2 overall behind only Gonzaga in the NCAA’s NET ratings. This time, the only real question is where the Wildcats will play during the second weekend, if they win their first two games in San Diego.
But Gonzaga’s likely status above Arizona on the top seed line — unless the Pac-12 Tournament results bump the Wildcats up to No. 1 overall — means Arizona will likely have to move out of the West to play second-weekend games in San Antonio or Chicago since the Zags are expected to be the No. 1 seed in the West.
