Daily Bruin's coverage of the Washington game:

M. basketball: Bruin comeback falls short

Loss encouraging in the big picture

M. basketball: Bruins make the most of Thompson’s time

BTW, I think these articles have a bit too much "glass is half full" mentality. Yes, one can't complain about a road split in the Pac-10, but looking at this team's prospects going forward, there is still great cause for concern. The next four games are going to be very tough (Az St, Az, at Cal, at Stanford). If this team continues to fall behind early in games, 0-4 during this stretch is not out of the question. This team is still a bit away from being anything more than an average Pac-10 team. We need to come out ready to play on Thursday because losing this game would pretty much wipe out all of the warm fuzzies that developed from pulling out the victory in Pullman last week.
