Oregon Ducks at UCLA Bruins Prediction 2/17/18
UCLA lost a close one on the road against Oregon back in January falling by three. The Bruins got off to a slow start and had trouble with turnovers in the game turning the ball over 13 times while the Ducks had only 8. They return home where they're 13-2 overall and 7-1 in conference games straight up and are an excellent 5-2-1 versus the spread. Oregon plays tough for the most and does have a positive ATS road record, but I don't think that they get off to a fast start in the rematch and UCLA's depth is the difference here helping them pull away late.
