Trying to get info on UCLA.. Everyone keeps talking about NC/SC IU and Louisville... What about our first game? I know our boys were hot in the Super Regionals.. Regionals (except for that error ridden game) but how good is UCLA? I don't want to look too far down the road and not respect the first game.

They beat a REALLY good Fullerton team in two games at their own place...I'd say they aren't too shabby.

I would defer to dean, even though he is a csf fan.

UCLA is good, and they have just as much recent Omaha experience as anyone in the tourney.

Our side of the bracket is tough, with UNC/USC and UCLA.

Good pitching with starters Plutko and Vander Tuig. great closer in David Berg.

Their hitting is poo. More poo than OU. We win easily if we make no errors or walk a bunch of guys.

typical west coast team. Overrated pitching staff. Not much offense. But yet they will be hyped because they play baseball the right way. Sacrificing, station to station baseball, blah, blah, blah

I've watched them a few times, they grind out their runs like a typical pac 12 team. They play small ball to generate there few runs they score a game.

There ace is good, not as good as Gray though

I was impressed that they swept Cal State

Above average pitching...can't hit the broad side of a barn hitting.

We always have trouble with these scrappy, small ball left coast teams

Small ball team .... play outfield shallow to take away dink singles... work on bunting defense.... play 3rd basemen in.... should beat them by at least 1 touchdown.... Tell Coach Mainieri to call me.

Good enough to be one of the last eight teams standing in the entire country.
