Minnesota has a history with UCLA in the NCAA Tournament, but Wednesday night was their first matchup ever matchup at Pauley Pavilion. The red-hot Gophers staged a 17-point comeback to leave L.A. with an impressive 64-61 win over the Bruins.

Minnesota (14-12, 6-9) swept the two California teams on the road over four days, with another double-digit comeback to beat USC 69-66 on Saturday. Only Big Ten leader Michigan has also done that

UCLA faltered in the second half against Minnesota, missing crucial free throws on FS1, leading to a frustrating loss. Mick Cronin was not happy post-game.

Here's what stood out the most... Garcia had only seven points in Minnesota's win over Southern Cal on Saturday, and there was a point on Tuesday when he had made 7 of his last 27 shots from the field.

With a chance to leapfrog two teams in the Big Ten standings, the UCLA Bruins fell to the Minnesota Golden Gophers in a disappointing loss.
