UCLA Bruins

On the heels of a thrilling 68-66 comeback victory at Arizona State on Wednesday, your UCLA Bruins look to extend their winning streak to three games in Tucson against the No. 12 Arizona Wildcats.

How to Watch

The game will be nationally televised on ESPN2 at 1 p.m. PST. Bob Wischusen will provide play-by-play and former Bruin Sean Farnham will be the analyst.

Odds

According to the Action Network, Arizona is a -17.5-point favorite, and the total over/under is set at 143.5.

The Arizona offense is one of the best in the nation with a high-tempo attack. UCLA's defense is ranked 40th in efficiency and the offense is 222nd. If Arizona goes an early run, UCLA may not be able to keep up.

Predictions

Despite being on a winning streak, the Bruins have a tough task ahead of them. Arizona is tough at home and UCLA's inconsistent offense will have a hard time keeping up with high-flying pace.

Arizona should cover and win by a hefty margin.

Wildcats 91 - Bruins 70

Adem Bona needs one block to join the top-10 in UCLA shot-blocking history. He has 93 blocks in 51 games and 36 in 18 games this season. The sophomore has averaged 15.5 points in the last two games and will need to keep up that pace to give UCLA a chance to hang around.
