UCLA Basketball News Roundup: Don’t Blame the Players for This Ugly Loss

Let’s state with some quotes the announcers of yesterday’s ugly fest of a 69-55 loss by the UCLA Bruins to the Washington Huskies. Bill Walton’s long-suffering sidekick ESPN Announcer Dave Pasch declared the first half the “ugliest I’ve seen in 15 years of doing basketball on ESPN.”

UCLA lost the ball dribbling in transition. It lost the ball driving into the paint. It lost the ball on an inbounds pass. It lost the ball on a jump pass.
