In this edition of the BROCast, Dave and Tracy break down UCLA's huge win over Oregon in Autzen, talk about Nico Iamaleava's injury, preview Wisconsin, and then talk about basketball practice heading into the season.

We talked about the dominant defensive performance in the win over then-No. 13 Oregon this weekend, and how the game itself wasn't particularly lucky -- UCLA had quite a bit of bad luck itself to not be up by a lot more early in the game. We also talked about the offensive performance and Ty Dieffenbach coming in to lead the team to the win.

We then shifted gears to talk about Nico Iamaleava and his injury, and the unfortunate position he's in heading into the end of the season and the offseason. If his injury is longterm, there are some hard decisions for him coming up as to his future, given the state of the sport with the Transfer Portal and NIL.

We previewed Wisconsin, and what we're expecting from the Badgers. We also debated whether this is a very important game or not.

Finally, we provided an update from what we've heard from basketball practice heading into the exhibitions, which begin next week. We also talked about Jalen Davis, the point guard officially visiting this weekend.
