Will tyger show up and play substantial minutes? Or will Andrews get the quick insert to try and win this game with true defense.

UCLA doesn’t have any bigs that are offensive threats, so getting the other bigs into foul trouble means we would have to play into the bigs underneath. So far this season that would be a bad idea as none of our bigs are offensive threats… so trying that now seems ill advised.

Hopefully jaquez can score buckets

And hopefully our perimeter defense doesn’t allow switches that give their best 3 pt shooter open looks like we did against Illinois when that one guy torched ucla in the second half with 6-7 3s… that’s what opposing coaches do to ucla defense. They find a player that’s hot and feed him all night to win the game. Will ucla adjust to their hot hand?

We don't have a big coach! All cylinders must be firing tonight!

Let's not forget that the majority of Jaime's shots are in the paint, so he can help attack their big inside;

Jaime is strong but not "small", he won't instinctively try to get another dribble before going to the basket.

Uc regents approve UCLA’s move to the big 10 provided we make welfare payments to Berkeley lol so this matchup vs Maryland will be one well be seeing a lot in the future!

Refs seem to be helping Maryland tonight. Clark gets flattened, no call. Tyger establishes position, called for block.

2nd foul was a good call. Should’ve played smarter knowing he already has a foul. Looks like we’ll be seeing a lot of Singleton and Andrews in the first half

ok the refs are kinda sorta making up for their terrible calls/noncalls now.

we'll see how that goes, but Mick was rightfully livid at the refs in the first 9 minutes.
