UConn vs UCLA Predictions & Picks

UConn are backed to cover as they advance in the March Madness bracket.

The Huskies underwhelmed in their tournament opener, but they can put that behind them with a strong defensive showing that slows down this Bruins offense.

  • UConn are 6-2 in their last 8 games
  • UCLA are 5-6-0 ATS as a betting underdog
  • The Under has cashed in 5 of UConn's last 8 games
  • The Under has hit in 3 of UCLA's 4 postseason games so far

Head To Head

  • UCLA lead the all-time series 1-0
  • UCLA won 102-96 when the two teams last met in March 1995

Verdict

UConn did not look great in the first-round win over Furman, but they did get the job done.

Against a better standard of opposition, we expect a sharper performance from the Huskies.
