A ragged defensive effort by No. 2 UCLA allowed Long Beach State to lead by as much as five points in the first half before UCLA cruised to 100-79 win.
as its big men, the Bruins averted a major upset. It was more relief than rejoicing after UCLA used a 28-13 surge to persevere through its ragged defensive effort.
Cronin said he told reserves Clark, Peyton Watson, David Singleton, Kenny Nwuba and Jake Kyman after the game that if they got to play, exerted effort on defense and didn’t turn the ball over, he wouldn’t put his starters back in the game. Three days after their thrilling overtime victory over Villanova, the second-ranked Bruins suffered an across-the-board hangover. The sellout crowd and boxing ring announcer Michael Buffer and his “Let’s get ready to rumble!” spiel were gone, and so was UCLA’s crisp play.
“I know everybody’s happy we beat Villanova, but the game was at home,” Cronin said. “To me, that game shouldn’t have even come down the way it came down. We’ve got a lot to learn.”“Completely unsustainable. Completely,” Cronin said. “You cannot win on the road if you don’t defend.”
