PALO ALTO, California (Ticker) -- In the midst of its worst stretch of the season, 19th-ranked UCLA hopes a meeting with lowly Stanford on Thursday can help it get back on track.
The Bruins (20-7, 9-5 Pac-10) have fallen from first place in the Pac-10 and out of the top 10 in the national rankings after enduring three losses in their last four games.
Following back-to-back road losses to then-No. 18 Arizona State and Arizona, UCLA momentarily stopped its slide with an impressive 85-76 victory over then-No. 19 Washington last Thursday.
The Bruins' woes returned on Saturday as they endured an 82-81 setback to the Washington State, allowing Taylor Rochestie to score 14 points in the final three minutes en route to the loss.
UCLA had no trouble in the last meeting with the Cardinal, cruising to a 97-63 rout on January 31.
Things haven't gotten better recently for Stanford (15-10, 4-10), which enters the contest on a three-game losing streak after dropping a 68-60 decision against Oregon on Saturday.
