UCLA Basketball Vs Arizona: How To Watch, Odds, Predictions, And More

Can UCLA pull off the major upset on Thursday night?

The UCLA Bruins basketball team enters into its final week of the regular season, starting with a major matchup against the 5th-ranked Arizona Wildcats. UCLA has been incredibly inconsistent all year long, leading to them needing to win their final two games just to hit over a .500 record.

UCLA enters this game having lost four in a row, so they will look to stop the bleeding. The Bruins aren't likely to make the NCAA Tournament after a troubling season, but a win over highly-ranked Arizona could provide some small crack in the doorway.

How to Watch

The game will be taking place from Pauley Pavilion, with tip-off scheduled for 6:35 pm PT. The game will be broadcast on ESPN. The radio broadcast will be held on UCLA Sports Network, AM 1150. It will also be on Sirius XM, SiriusXM 386, and on the SXM Ap

Odds

Action Network has the spread favoring Arizona at -9 tonight. UCLA enters as the heavy underdog in this contest.

Predictions

Just when the Bruins look completely out of everything, they find a way to pull themselves back in. I think UCLA does the same thing here tonight, behind a rallied effort. The Bruins pull the upset on the Wildcats, potentially saving their NCAA Tournament bid if they can perform well in the upcoming Pac-12 Tournament.

74-70

More

The Bruins have won five straight home matchups over Arizona and will be looking to keep that going tonight. UCLA has gone 6-2 over their last eight matchups with the Wildcats, so history may be on their side.
