Net rakings for the top 8 teams in the WCC:
Gonzaga: 1
BYU: 19
Saint Mary’s: 65
LMU: 97
San Francisco: 112
Pepperdine: 116
Pacific: 125
Santa Clara: 140

Before the championship game, BYU’s Side of the bracket includes Pepperdine, Pacific, and Santa Clara (The three teams outside the top two with the weakest net ranking)

Before the championship game, Gonzaga potentially could play Saint Mary’s, LMU, or San Francisco (The top three teams outside the top two according to net)

I thought it was supposed to be an advantage to win the regular season championship. I guess it’s not this year (at least according to net rankings).
