UCLA comes in as the highest-scoring team in the nation at 92.3 ppg and the Bruins are also No. 1 in field goal percentage at 53.5. Early in the season they were covering and flying Over the totals, but their spread and total rating has caught up with them. They've gone Under in four of the past six games and 2-5 ATS in the last seven. ASU is in a similar situation with its total rating and has stayed Under in its last four. Overall on the season, the Sun Devils allow 81.6 ppg and let opponents shoot a whopping 48 percent. When they met five weeks ago, UCLA won 102-80. It was the sixth straight meeting UCLA covered. Look for something similar here with Over being the top play.
Let’s pick a final score at random: 93-83. A shootout, right? Indeed, but the Under would cash nonetheless. This selection is based partly on common mathematical sense, meaning the unlikelihood of so many points crammed into 40 minutes. Yes, the teams collaborated for 183 last month when the total was 179.5. But UCLA is actually playing a bit of defense nowadays. And the Sun Devils recently slogged through a game with 111 points. Play the Under.
