UCLA coach Jim Mora met with the media for the final time before Arizona on Wednesday. Here were the notes:
-Mora said he believes the team has gotten over the Stanford loss. Said there was always a little worried they might not, but he says the team has "re-focused immediately."
-Mora backed off his stance a little bit that he'd be significantly restricting playing time for backup guys, but he said he has communicated with some guys about why they won't be playing as much now as opposed to previous games.
-Mora said "we're in good shape" injury-wise right now. He said Eli Ankou is "working through" his elbow injury, and if he's ready to go Saturday, he'll go. Sounds like no other real worries for Saturday at this point.
