UCLA will pack its bags and head to Maui a winless team.
Middle Tennessee State came to the Sports Arena and delivered the Bruins’ second straight loss to open the year Tuesday night, 86-66.
For all the size that the Bruins (0-2) boast, big and small Blue Raiders (3-0) alike were able to get in the paint at will. At times it was 6-foot-2-inch guard Marcos Knight, who finished with 15 points. Other times 6-foot-10-inch LaRon Dendy (16 points) was skying to easy dunks.
The Blue Raiders also did it from outside, hitting an NCAA-record nine straight threes without a miss.
