UCLA can get to nine wins for the first time since with a win, and NC State can get to 10 wins for the first time since Both teams have had their moments this season, but there's been some disappointment as well considering the expectations entering the season.
Feels kind of like the winner of this one will end the season having met expectations, whereas the loser will look back with a bunch of "what ifs. Gut says that one could go off the rails.
