  • SNUFF THE MAGIC DRAGO

    Nikola Dragovic smokes 6 three’s to spark the Bruins to a 15-point lead, before the Cougars go on the (Niko-tine) patch, and fly all the way back, but flame out, 61-59 The Cougars were able to put out a fire, but they still got burned. UCLA’s Nikola Dragovic hit 6…

  • TROJAN FORCED TO USE TROJAN FAILS TO PRODUCE

  • TROJANS UNPREPARED FOR BEAVERS, AGAIN

    Looking past the Beavers to UCLA, heavily-favored sc chokes in Corvallis (just like football), bringing Oregon State’s 23-game Pac-10 losing streak to a happy ending Are they allergic to Beavers?

    HEAD START:  Laying 69 on Beavers is just foreplay, but Bruins can taste what would go down as their 4th straight Pac-10 Title Don’t worry — No one is getting overly excited about stuffing the lowly Beavers in the Conference opener.  Oregon State lost ALL 18 of their Pac-10 games…
