I mean, I get that we're a pretty big under dog. But we're the 11-time national champ UCLA. We have no business storming the court even if we beat a No.1 team, let alone a No.4 team. It's not like we are in a losing season.

The only other time I witnessed UCLA students storming the court was in Steve Lavin's final dumpster-fire year when we miraculously beat Cal in OT. This year's team is nowhere even close to 2003 Lavin's team.
