Betting Prediction:
Stanford started the season inconsistently but they have turned things around since then and won 5 of their last 7 games. They are also coming off a 93-86 win over Long Beach State in the last outing. Okpala leads Stanford with an average of 16.8 points and 6.1 rebounds while Davis is the assists leader with 3.8 assists per game. Stanford is averaging 73.2 points per game on offense on 44.4% shooting from the field.
The UCLA Bruins are having an uncharacteristic season so far. They are thought to be one of the good teams in college basketball but they have won just 7 out of their first 13 games. They are also riding on a 4-game losing streak and they are coming off a 73-58 loss to Liberty. The Bruins have talent on their sides with Wilkes leading the way with 17.5 points per game. As a team, UCLA is scoring 76.5 points per game on 45.1% shooting from the field.
UCLA has played miserably so far and it is not very reasonable to put your money on them. Despite this fact, they have the ability to score in bunches when on their best day. If they get going early, it will be difficult to stop them.
