The Bruins had a chance to go into half down less than 10 points but, trailing by 12 points, allowed three consecutive offensive rebounds to Villanova and Scott Reynolds answered with a 3-pointer.
It's Wildcats 44-31 at intermission after a layup and free throw by Josh Shipp with three seconds to go.
The only chance UCLA has of making it competitive in the second half is if the Bruins do a better job of guarding the Wildcats off the dribble, box out better on the defensive boards and execute better offensively.
It's a longshot, I know.
