PROFILE

This is Brian Dohn's fifth season covering UCLA after spending 4 1/2 years covering the Dodgers for the Daily News and other Los Angeles Newspaper Group papers. He graduated from Rutgers, where the first college football game was played in 1869. Sure, the Scarlet Knights suffered for a long time, but now RU is doing what Jerseyans always thought was possible. Winning at Rutgers also proves winning is possible everywhere else in the nation, so underachieving coaches better be careful. Now, if only men's hoops can turn it around.

Rooting for U-dub

UCLA players made no bones about who they want to see in the quarterfinals Thursday of the Pac-10 tournament. The Bruins play the winner of Wednesday's game between Washington and California.
"I would love to see Washington,'' UCLA point guard Darren Collison said.
The reason?
The players cited February's loss to Washington, and the Huskies' Tim Morris throwing the ball off the face of Bruins center/power forward Alfred Aboya at the end of the game as the main reasons.

Good Idea...beating someone 3 times is not easy...Cal might be a little hard to handle a 3rd time...THINK???

I agree with Collison.

Not only is there the revenge factor, but UCLA needs to practice against teams with strong inside presence to get them ready for the real tournament.

GO BRUINS!!

It's great that at this point of the season the Bruins have the Pac 10 Championship, possibly a #1 seed in the tourney and a huge chip on their shoulder. I like it.

No Brockman, no UW. I suspect he'll play, even with the bad ankle. Willis Reed leading the charge against Cal.
