00:18Extremely competitive and it's an opportunity for UCLA to regain its place among the national

00:24discussion. I'm talking about being back in the top 20 of the polls. You know, UCLA had a four

00:29game losing streak at the start of January, but has rallied, you know, over the past couple of
