UCLA Bruins vs UNLV Rebels 11/27/2021 Picks Predictions Previews
The #2 UCLA Bruins of the Pac-12 Conference will go against the UNLV Rebels of the Mountain West Conference in NCAAB action in Thomas & Mack Center, NV, on Saturday, November 27, 2021, at 5:00 PM ET.
The UCLA Bruins went into Monday night’s battle with #1 Gonzaga with an undefeated record, hoping to put themselves up against the top, but came out thrashed 83-63. The Bruins fell early and never recovered, trailing 45-25 at halftime.
The Bruins will aim to bounce back against the Runnin’ Rebels, who struggled against quality teams in the early going. Jaime Jaquez Jr. finished with 19 points and 6 rebounds, although he was a non-factor until the 2nd half when he scored 9 of the team’s first 15 points to narrow the deficit to 16 points.
During that time, the Bruins only made three of 16 shots. UCLA did not register consecutive baskets until the 7:58 mark of the first half, illustrating their problems. The Bruins only had 8 turnovers in the match, but their 35% shooting was the death knell against Gonzaga’s efficiency.
- The University of California, Los Angeles Bruins is 9-3 ATS in their last 12 matches.
- The Bruins are 5-0 SU in their last 5 matches against UNLV.
- The UCLA Bruins are 5-1 SU in their last 6 matches in the Mountain West Conference.
