Analysis
This is a play on the CENTRAL FLORIDA KNIGHTS for our CBB Friday Enforcer. UCLA made a nice run in the Big Ten Tournament as it defeated Michigan St. before losing to Purdue in the semifinals and the win against the Spartans was costly as Tyler Bilodeau sustained a knee injury. He missed the Purdue game and is listed as questionable and even if he goes, he will not be close to 100 percent and he is a major contributor, leading the team in scoring and second in rebounds. While there has been time for prep, this is a difficult travel spot for the Bruins and their struggles away from home are well documented. Central Florida has the much easier travel schedule and have been off since losing Thursday. This is one of the most experienced teams in the field and have seven wins over top 50 KenPom teams. Power Six teams as a double-digit seed are 82-50-4 ATS (62 percent). 10* (749) Central Florida Knights
