It was a back and forth between the fiercest rivals in the Pac-12 as the Arizona and UCLA Basketball teams traded blows for about 16 minutes. Then the Wildcats took over and never looked back.
The Bruins had several things go against them. Defense was the biggest issue. In the beginning, the offensive assault by Arizona was quelled by the fact that the Bruins were answering every basket they made with one of their own.
But as we have analyzed time and time again at Go Joe Bruin, when UCLA’s shooting disappears, so does any chance of winning.
