Can UCLA continue its Cinderella run?

What a run it has been so far in the NCAA Tournament for the UCLA Bruins. The Bruins were selected as one of the last four teams in the Field of 68, and have now gone from the First Four to the Final Four.

You could make the argument that the Bruins are the top story of March Madness up to this point. UCLA, after winning a close “First Four” game over Michigan State, has rattled off dominant wins over BYU and Abilene Christian, as well as then pulling off massive upsets over 2-seed Alabama and 1-seed Michigan to reach the Final Four.

The Bruins have gotten outstanding play in the NCAA Tournament from numerous players but in particular Kentucky transfer Johnny Juzang. Juzang is averaging 21.6 PPG during the Bruins’ five tournament games and has scored over 20+ points in three of those games.

11-seed UCLA will face #1 overall seed Gonzaga in their Final Four matchup. The Bruins have already pulled off two massive upsets in-a-row, can they make it three?
