UCLA vs Washington Prediction 

Both of these teams come into this matchup with a 5-2 record and both are dealing with some injuries, so this should be an interesting game. UCLA is coming off of a tough loss to Cal, but they are shooting 48% from the field and their defense has been very good. Washington just lost to Colorado by 13 points and they are shooting 44% from the field. The Huskies have allowed 78 points or more in three of their last five games and I think UCLA’s defensive advantage will be the difference. Take the Bruins to win here.
