The unlikely NCAA Tournament run has been impressive for the Bruins but I think it comes to an end on Tuesday night.
They’re making a habit out of overcoming adversity and keeping hope alive. But they’ll run into serious problems on Tuesday against a Wolverines team that isn’t going to settle for low-percentage shooting like Alabama.
The Crimson Tide were abysmal at the free throw line, but they were even worse from 3-pointer. They fell in love with the perimeter shooting so much that they shot themselves out of a chance to win.
However, Michigan likes to do things a bit differently.
UCLA has not faced a post-up option in this tourney like Hunter Dickinson. Each of UCLA's NCAA Tournament opponents has shot poorly from beyond the arc. I'm banking on Michigan (38% this season, 11th nationally) ending that streak.
