Run, run, run
USC made a run, UCLA made one and 'SC just made another.
Darren Collison hit back-to-back 3-pointers for UCLA to cut the lead to three points at 42-38. After a Nick Young jumper and two free throws by Collison, Lodrick Stewart nailed a 3-pointer and Ndiaye - who played just five minutes in the first half - scored on a move inside over Mata.
