• How UCLA men’s basketball can earn a Pac-12 tournament bye

  08-03-2019 23:18
  
  It’s been a month since the 22-point lead that got away and Kris Wilkes hasn’t forgotten.

  The home loss proves especially costly now as the Utes (16-13, 10-7 Pac-12) are one game ahead of the Bruins (16-14, 9-8 Pac-12) in the crowded Pac-12 standings. As the teams meet again in
