I picked the Bruins to win the whole thing, but they are going to have to play better than they have to beat Texas and the Tar Heels. FWIW - The UNC vs. Lousville was one of the most fast-paced athletic games you will ever watch. Incredible pace. Incredible athletes.

Howland has done a great job with this team. I hadn’t realized it until I watched the game, but UCLA has only one senior (maybe that’s only one senior in its starting lineup, I am not certain).
