Tournament notes

• This was the first time since 2003 that neither of the top two seeds made the final.
• Oregon's 24-point win over USC was the 2nd largest margin of victory for the championship game in this tournament's history. (The largest since a 26-point margin by Arizona in 1988).
• Cal's appearance in the semifinals was the best performance for a #8 seed, since Arizona St. had made it to the semifinals in 1990.
• Arch-rivals Washington and Washington St. met for the first time ever in the tournament (second round). This was the first meeting in five years for any arch-rival pair.
