The Cardinal were one of UCLA’s five consecutive losses to end last season, placing Stanford ninth in the conference and UCLA 10th with its worst ever Pac-12 record. Things haven’t much changed for Stanford (8-8, 0-4 Pac-12), but they’re night-and-day different for UCLA (16-1, 3-1).
With an 89-75 win over the Cardinal Sunday night, the Bruins have surpassed their win total from last season – with at least 16 games to play this season.
“We’ve come a long way since last year,” said Bryce Alford. “It’s been a blast. I’ve been saying it all year.”
