Fresh off a big road win at #20 Northwestern, the Bluejays head to Kansas City for the Hall Of Fame Classic, where they’ll play two games against likely NCAA Tourney teams in two days. First up is #21 UCLA, coached by old “friend” Steve Alford.
The Bruins have made headlines for all the wrong reasons so far in the 2017-18 season. On the court, they’re 3-0, but haven’t looked terribly impressive in any of their three wins — a three-point win over Georgia Tech where one of the nation’s highest powered offenses scored 63 points, a 106-101 win in OT against a really bad Central Arkansas team, and a 96-68 win over an equally bad South Carolina State team where the visiting Bulldogs were within single digits for most of the game.
