Quick update: stomach flu has been running through the team. Cronin has said at least 4 players are playing with it today. No names officially, but Clark is reportedly one and Mara is apparently the player who has had it the worst. Something to keep in mind.

AB, maybe this explains why Mara sitting so much...

This has trap game written all over it: ucla playing against an inferior team sandwiched between two ranked opponents. It’s the last game of the easier stretch of UCLA’s conference schedule before Illinois next week and Purdue on the road to close out the month so hopefully we make a statement by running them off the court like we did against Oregon.

Good afternoon, Chenalex. We're shooting 50% to PSU's 40%, we should have a better lead.

There will either be very few comments here after the game, or calls for the public execution of Mick Cronin and whatever administrators refuse to fire him.

Penn State is one of the east coast schools that is going to be furious when the 2027 Big Ten tournament is held in Vegas.

Hey, in Cronin we trust. If he has managed to get our boys off their 4-game slump, he should be able to get them pumped for this game.

Hey Beautiful Bruin Fam! May not be able to be in the thread the whole game as I have an out of town guest, but will try to sneak in a few comments 💙💛

As I stated to watch, Niederhauser is not starting and is still listed as questionable. That changes the dynamics of the game in UCLA’s favor.

Nothing falling for us…

Cronin said 4 of our top 7 players have been ill, and didn't practice. I believe they are playing but hoping everyone is feeling much better! 💙💛
