UCLA vs. Arizona BETTING PREDICTION
UCLA handled business at home versus Colorado, while Arizona knocked off Oregon State for a massive home win.
Arizona has looked impressive, freshman Noah Fifita looks like the real deal, however we’re going to back UCLA in this one to end the Wildcats win streak. The Bruins’ defense is legit allowing just 15.0 ppg and less than 300 yards per game. Offensively for UCLA, Ethan Garbers has given them a boost and the quarterback position and Carson Steele is the real deal at running back. While this Arizona run is fun, the better team puts an end to it in Tucson on Saturday night.
UCLA vs. Arizona Prediction: UCLA -2.5
