UCLA vs. Arizona: Poor defensive rebounding, zone offense doom Wildcats in loss to Bruins

If you had told Sean Miller that the Arizona Wildcats would have the opportunity to limit the UCLA Bruins to 77 points, he would have jumped at it.

“I would have signed up for that because they’re such a great offensive team,” the UA head coach said Saturday.

And it happened.

The Wildcats held the Bruins to their lowest-scoring mark since January, as the nation’s best offense produced below its season averages, shooting just 45 percent from the field and 31 percent from 3.

There was one problem.

“We just could not get a rebound,” Miller said.
