- UCF is coming into this game with a 21-11 record this season and they are 9-9 in the conference. They are coming off of an 81-59 loss against Arizona in their last game and they have not been playing well recently, losing 4 of their last 5 games. They have been struggling a lot recently with their offense getting held under 70 points in their last 3 straight games, but they average 81 points scored per game this season and they are going to be hungry to bounce back. They are going up against a UCLA team that is 23-11 this season and they are 13-7 in their conference. They are coming off of a 73-66 loss against Purdue in their last game and they have been playing very well recently as they have won 4 of their last 5 games with some quality wins in that span. They have not had a great defense all season though so that is going to help UCF's potent offense bounce back in this game, and UCLA has also been very inconsistent with their offense as well. They are not a team that gets a lot of shots up either while UCF has been shooting very well all season and they have been much better with their rebounding as well. UCF will cover the spread in this game.
