2026-27 Outlook
LangIndex projects Pacific at #126 nationally for the 2026-27 college basketball season with a projected efficiency margin of +1.5 points per 100 possessions. That's roughly in line with last season's #119 finish. The projection makes this team a factor in its conference race.
Only 17% of last season's minutes return, so this roster will look very different. Expect some early-season volatility while new pieces settle in.
