Expect the big guns to show up in Game 3

We expected an even-steven match-up between the UST Growling Tigers and the FEU Tamaraws. It was evident in Games 1 and 2 of the UAAP Season 78 Finals that both sides were equally competitive and hungry for a title. And so the set is stage for the ultimate showdown in the winner-take-all Game 3 on Wednesday at the Mall of Asia Arena.

FEU showed tremendous poise in Game 1, unleashing a 14-2 run in end game from a nip and tuck payoff period en route to the victory. But in Game 2, just when the Tams threatened to finish off the Tigers after posting a commanding 30-21 halftime lead, Kevin Ferrer went berserk in the third canto, lighting up the Smart Araneta Coliseum with 24 of his game-high 29 points to save the day for his alma mater.
