Yes, it’s still early and March Madness hasn’t begun, but it’s time to start taking notes.
First note. UCLA is vulnerable. Even though they’ve been beating up on opponents, the Adidas-clad Bruins continue to have a weakness against teams wearing Nikes. Of their current 21-3 record, all three losses are to Nike teams (Texas, USC, and now Washington).
So to beat UCLA during the dance, outfit your team in old school Barkley’s and play ball-in-your-face dirty. Still a legal play.

UCLA played terribly, especially Collison (3pts and 8 turnovers). They were so flat and dead.
That shot Aboya took was pretty cheap. I pity UW when they meet again.
Yeah, but UW showed the way of toppling the Bruins. I doubt UW will make any noise in the Dance (if they make it) so this contribution will be important to other teams.
