Arizona State vs UCLA Prediction
UCLA comes into this matchup after losing to Gonzaga, but they played decently well and ended up covering, which not many teams can say this year. The Bruins are 6-0 at home and they are shooting 48% from the field. Arizona State has won three games in a row, but they were lucky to escape with a win over Santa Clara in their last game. The Sun Devils are 1-0 on the road and they are shooting 47% from the field. I do think UCLA will get the win, but I expect it to be a low scoring game and I think ASU can keep it close. Take the Sun Devils here.
