On Saturday, the Bruins lack of defense caught up with them as the Wildcats held the Bruins to 45.1%. With no defense and struggles with shooting, UCLA just could not keep up.
That was the second loss the Bruins have incurred which unfortunately have both been in conference.
UCLA lost their first game of the season in their first game of Pac-12 play three weeks ago at Oregon.
The difference in the losses is that the Ducks won on a last second shot. This past weekend, the Wildcats completely dominated UCLA at home and Pauley Pavilion.
The Bruins look to change things up this week as they head across town to face the USC Trojans who have lost four out of their last seven games.
