The No. 7 UCLA Bruins, fresh off their first Big Ten Tournament in which they lost to Wisconsin in the quarterfinals, face the No. 10 Utah State Aggies in the first round of March Madness.
UCLA head coach Mick Cronin has been linked to the newly-vacant Villanova job in recent days, but he will try and focus on the task at hand. The Aggies lost just seven games this season, but three of them were in their last five outings.
Utah State vs. UCLA will be broadcast on TNT, available via cable TV and live TV streaming apps including YouTubeTV and SlingTV.
Utah State vs. UCLA is scheduled to tip off at 9:25 PM ET/8:25 PM CT/7:25 PM MT/6:25 PM PT on Thursday, March 20th from Rupp Arena in Lexington, Kentucky.
