PHILADELPHIA – Tyler Bilodeau has drawn substantial attention.
Will he start? Will he play? Is he at full strength?

The Bruins are back in March Madness for its second consecutive year and fifth time in the coach Mick Cronin era. No. 7 seed UCLA men’s basketball (23-11, 13-7 Big Ten) will face No.

Deja vu.
It’s an unsettling feeling for most.
But not for the Bruins.
No. 7 seed UCLA men’s basketball (23-11, 13-7 Big Ten) will face No.

March is here. Start the Dancing.
No. 7 seed UCLA men’s basketball (23-11, 13-7 Big Ten) will face No. 10 seed UCF (21-11, 9-9 Big 12) in the Round of 64 on Friday night at the Xfinity Mobile Arena in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.

Five people play on the court.
But it is the 10 others on the roster that turn a good team into a great one.
From the sixth man to the No.

No. 1 seed UCLA women’s basketball and No. 7 seed UCLA men’s basketball are both returning to the “Big Dance” for the 2025-26 campaign – with the former holding a stake of the title odds and the latter looking to go past the Sweet Sixteen for the first time since the 2020-21 season.
