Stanford loses 3-0 and gets swept by UCLA. Bruins are the clear favorites to win Pac regular season title.
Stanford will need to rebound quickly next week to buttress the great work that they have done toward a possible
top 8 seed next week at home against Arizona.
Probably a must-win series to avoid slipping further down the Pac/postseason picture, though
Card were helped this weekend by Texas getting swept by Oklahoma, Washington losing a series at Arizona State,
but Florida State swept Georgia Tech (and already has a series win at Duke compared to our neutral site loss to
Blue Devils). That is what is tough about these H2H matchups (when we lose); they end up inevitably becoming point(s) of comparison
when assessing who should host as a top 8 vs a top 16 etc.
