MANILA, Philippines A day before the UAAP Finals decider, Far Eastern University and National University look back and try to draw inspiration from their respective series that propelled them to the championship showdown.

The Tamaraws and the Bulldogs, each confident of completing a historic title romp, clash in the winner-take-all Game 3 at 4 p.m. Wednesday at Smart Araneta Coliseum.

Both hope to get a boost from their huge Final Four feat two weeks ago, when the Tamaraws dethroned the La Salle Green Archers and the Bulldogs ousted the top-seeded Ateneo Blue Eagles.

Its another do-or-die, so how we prepared and what we did in our previous do-or-die games, we want to have that again, standout guard Gelo Alolino said of the Bulldogs, who survived four no-tomorrow contests this season, including two against the Eagles in the Final Four.

In our minds, we know we have to bring out that kind of game [against Ateneo].

Showing incredible will in every knockout game, the Bulldogs had it in full display again when they forged a rubber match for the crown with a commanding Game 2 triumph, 62-47, last week.

But for the Tamaraws, who took Game 1 of the title series with a 75-70 decision, they want to relive the poise and focus they showed in responding to adversity.

Its on us how well adjust, said FEU coach Nash Racela after the Game 2 loss where the Tamaraws bowed to the Bulldogs for the first time in four games this season.
