With only a couple of games left in non-conference hoops, let's take a look at teams around the Pac-12 and see who looks strong early in the season.
UCLA
Record: 8-4
Best Victory: 87-77 over #1 Kentucky
Of all the Pac-12 teams, the Bruins easily had the toughest non-conference schedule squaring off against powerhouses Kansas, Kentucky, Gonzaga and North Carolina. The Bruins started off the season with a mind boggling loss at home against Monmouth and narrowly avoided another upset against Cal Poly. The Bruins continued to struggle through the Maui Invitational, but shortly after started to gain some rhythm.
