Arizona vs. UCLA CBB Prediction:
Arizona looks for their fourth consecutive victory, while UCLA seeks to get back in the win column.
Give me the Bruins. UCLA played Arizona tough in the first meeting this season and I expect to see a similar result in this one. The Bruins struggle offensively, but the defensive is typically sound. If the Bruins don’t settle for jumpers and try to get to the rim, I think they should be able to hang around here. This is too many points.
