Britton Johnsen's three-pointer cut the Trojans' lead to 3 with 20 seconds to go, but Brandon Granville canned two free throws with 18.8 left on the clock to seal the win. When you're in the top 25, every game is a big game, so we have to be ready with our game. Phil Cullen led the Utes with 18 points, and Johnsen added 11 points and 13 rebounds. As far as basketball games go, it was an ugly one. The loss dropped the Bruins to 2-3 on the season, and added fuel to fire for those who think Lavin isn't getting the job done.
Critics have every right to speak and talk.

Watson, playing with a torn tendon in his right pinkie, amassed 8 of UCLA's 19 turnovers, and also missed a potential game-tying shot in the final seconds. I just missed a layup. I'll put the last 30 seconds on me.
