Stanford vs UCLA Preview
Stanford is the last team standing without a loss in Pac-12 play, winning their first three games against conference opponents. The latest was a walloping of Washington State, 88-62. Head coach Jerod Haase has preached attacking the basket, which he feels has helped his team find success.
“I think we’ve made real progress and that has been a teaching point that I’ve had for a while now,” Haase told CardinalSportsReport. “It hasn’t just been the last week or two, but I think it has resonated. For us to keep it below 10 turnovers is a huge, huge stat for us and I think the reason that was accomplished (against Washington State) was that we were looking for others. When you have 23 assists it means you’re not just making plays for yourself, you’re making plays for others.”
Oscar da Silva and Tyrell Terry have led the Cardinal, averaging 16.5 points and 5.6 rebounds and 14.3 points and 5.2 rebounds, respectively. In Stanford’s last win against Washington State, da Silva scored 15 points — all in the first half.
“I got a lot of good looks and made my shots,” da Silva told reporters. “I was more aggressive than I’ve been over the past few games.”
Stanford is just 3-7 against UCLA in their last 10 tries, but Haase isn’t worried about the past struggles in the LA area.
“We’re not looking at it as LA being difficult; the road in the Pac-12 is difficult,” Haase said. “We talk about that and the need to have even more of an edge and more of a focus and more of a resiliency to adversity. The guys are confident and they’re excited and those things are good. We have to understand that it is a notch up in challenge knowing that we’re going to being playing in a hostile environment.”
After winning their conference opener against Washington, UCLA has dropped their last two games to USC and Washington St. The Bruins are now floating at .500 at 8-8, trying to find answers.
“All teams give effort,” Mick Cronin said. “It’s usually the team that can sustain it that eventually imposes their will on the other team. So that’s what we’re learning how to do.”
Stanford is a one-point road favorite for the game. The total is set at 132.5.
