UCLA back in AP poll at No. 24

Finally, UCLA is ranked again. That November loss to Cal Poly knocked the Bruins out of the AP poll from No. 11, an embarrassing performance that took nine straight wins to begin to wash away. UCLA (14-3, 4-0) is obviously a completely different team at this point, but a loss like that stains deep.

Arizona is still ranked No. 7 after losing to Oregon in Eugene, while the Ducks check in at No. 21. This also sets up an exciting top-25 matchup between Oregon and UCLA at home Saturday. Pauley Pavilion should be packed come 1 p.m.

Stretch the streak to 11 games, and the Bruins should be back in the teens next week.
