Bruins win home opener, 64-53 over Chicago State. Excerpts from LAT:
There were smiles all around, plenty of back-slapping and hugging. If anybody wanted to nit-pick about bobbled passes or being turned around defensively by small, quick city guards and giving up too many layups or letting an undermanned opponent dictate the tempo, this wasn't the day.
Because opening day should be about the positives.
UCLA beat Chicago State, 64-53, Saturday in Pauley Pavilion, and the Bruins didn't need any last-second heroics (remember the home opener against Vermont last year, one-point win, nail biter to the end?).
And here are some observations from a friend of mine who is a huge Bruin fan:
To say the least, Howland's got some players this year. Both Farmer and Affalo are the real thing! I enjoy watching guys who can play defense and finish. They are young and make some mistakes ... Nevertheless UCLA should be good to watch [this year].
