The UCLA Bruins (11) and the Gonzaga Bulldogs (2) will face off at the NRG Stadium in a south region matchup for the NCAA Tournament.

This game will be a rematch for the two teams. The second-seeded Bulldogs defeated the Bruins 87-74 in December, giving them their only lost at home this season. However, the Los Angeles team will be looking for revenge in this NCAA Sweet 16 match on Friday.

''We take pride in defending our home court and they're the only team that came in there and beat us this year,'' UCLA freshman Kevon Looney told the Associated Press. ''We've got a chip on our shoulder about that.''

Despite Bruins being an 11 seed, Gonzaga coach Mark Few knows the UCLA team poses a serious threat.

''They're playing with a high level of confidence right now,'' Few told the AP. ''They're on a roll.''

Gozaga player Byron Wesley reiterated his coach's remarks, stating that the UCLA team they will see in this match is not the same team they beat three months ago.

''They're a much better unit [now],'' Wesley said. ''Coach has really told us not to get too caught up in last game that we had with them because they've made it to this point in the season for a reason."
