After Oklahoma upset South Carolina, it was very likely that UCLA would move up to No. 2 in the newest rankings. That became a reality on Monday afternoon. As the 19-1 Bruins moved ahead of South Carolina into the spot behind No. 1 UCONN. Putting the women in a great position to finish this regular season out and head towards the Big Ten tournament. This is the best team that UCLA has ever had and they will need everything they have to win it all. UCONN is dominate as well.
