No. 8 UCLA vs. No. 5 Oregon, 6:15 p.m., FSN -- The Bruins will face another opponent that buried them in their last meeting. Oregon beat UCLA, 79-48, March 1, taking a 13-0 lead in front of a spirited sellout crowd at McArthur Court. That game was far and away the worst UCLA has played in its last seven, five of which were victories. The Bruins fared better against the Ducks at Pauley Pavilion, falling in overtime, 96-91, Jan. 30.
