What’s Bruin Show – Episode 86 – UCLA Gets Tar Heeled, UCLA Goes Bowling
In Episode 86 of the What’s Bruin Show, we take a look at the UCLA Basketball team after the loss to North Carolina and preview the UCLA Football team as they get set to play in the Foster Farms Bowl.
In this latest episode, hosts Bill Shirley, Jake Merrifield and I start off this second holiday episode with a look at the UCLA Basketball team. The Bruins lost to North Carolina pretty badly last weekend, and even though it seems like they may be slipping into old habits, UCLA Basketball is doing better than expected.
