Just like Keanu Reeves in “Bill & Ted’s Excellent Adventure,” the 2017 Bruins are traveling back in time, or at least it seems like it to long-time UCLA fans. After beating #4 Arizona in McKale Center, where the Wildcats had won 21 of the last 22, The Boys from Westwood have now won 7 straight games to move to 26-3, and have won 4 straight over Top 5 teams, which they haven’t done since the Wooden Era!
The Bruins came into this game at #5 in the Country, so obviously they will leapfrog the #4 Wildcats. They may also jump #2 Villanova, and even possibly #1 Gonzaga, as both Top 2 teams lost this week.
