Get them in foul trouble early, and turn the rest of the game into an SMU showcase and proof of the Selection Committee's stupidity.

I am just glad that we are not playing the other Bruins.

We are playing the second best Bruins team in the tourney...

UCLA fan....

http://www.bruinzone.com/b12/messages/58431.shtml

I think their relatively high SOS is due to the inaccuracy of the RPI (see Kansas STILL ranked #2 with 8 losses) and resultant overrating of a very weak conference. They beat each other and were all overrated. Whoo hoo. These teams wouldn't last a minute In a major conference like the PAC 12(even in a somewhat down year).

Fortunately the selection committee seems to be a little savvier than what they've been credited for.

I guess we'll know a week from today whether I'm right or whether Im overrating the PAC 12 ( heck, somebody needs to stick up for west coast basketball, these east coast guys really resent and downplay us .... I guess 11 national championships will do that to you)

Also apparently we play 9-10 guys regularly. I guess he looked at the season stats and is counting Martin and Frazier.

Just spent a few unproductive minutes on Bruin Zone. Their fans are so dumb you want to give yourself a lobotomy just for reading their comments. Makes Tulsa fans look like Mensa members.

It's a terrible layout on my computer as well, I think it is the site design. Can't they get 1 of the tens of thousand computer science majors they have pumped out to create a decent website?

I'm starting to panic.

Talk me down, talk me down.

Need our fans to be LOUD - our guys will really need the love. I expect us to out number UCLA fans.

That we lose to UCLA. They are big and have all these McD AAs and are peaking - very underrated.
