UC Davis Aggies vs UCLA Bruins 12/21/2022 Picks Predictions Previews

 

The UC Davis Aggies will meet with the #13 UCLA Bruins in NCAAB action in Pauley Pavilion, CA, on Wednesday, December 21, 2022, at 5:00 PM ET.

 

To attempt to improve on their 7-4 performance and 1-3 road record against the top-ranked Bruins, UC Davis travels to Los Angeles.

 

The Aggies lost 79-68 against Eastern Washington on the road on Saturday. They will now face the potent Bruins in their last non-conference game of the year.

 

UC Davis lost to Eastern Washington despite shooting only 37% from the floor and committing 11 turnovers in the second half alone.

 

For the Aggies, Elijah Pepper scored a team-high 25 points, including 14 in the opening period. Despite being the 28th-ranked rebounding team in the nation, UC Davis was unexpectedly outrebounded in the contest.

 

The Aggies, who are ranked 66th in the nation in points per game, are one of the more dynamic scoring teams in the country. They are rated 135th in 3-point field goal percentage and 28th in offensive rebounding.

 

They do not, however, effectively guard the basketball. The Aggies are just 332nd in the nation in turnovers per game and rank 230th in offensive efficiency. They are horrible in defending 3-point shots at 349th place.

 

  • The UC Davis Aggies are 1-4 ATS in their last 5 matches. 
  • The total went UNDER in 13 of UC Davis’ last 20 matches. 
  • The Aggies are 1-5 SU in their last 6 matches on the road.

UC Davis Aggies vs UCLA Bruins Predictions 12/21/2022

 

By their high standards, the UCLA Bruins appear to be finding their footing after a shaky start to the season.

 

They won seven in a row, including two straight victories over teams ranked in the top 25—Maryland on the road and Kentucky at the CBS Sports Classic in New York.

 

On Saturday, Jaime Jaquez led the Bruins to a 63-53 victory with a double-double of 19 points and 12 rebounds. Kentucky was only able to shoot 33% from the floor because of UCLA’s defense, which also created 18 turnovers.

 

It is not unexpected that the Bruins are among the most productive teams in the nation given that veterans Jaquez and point guard Tyger Campbell are both starters.

 

UCLA is third in the country for offensive efficiency, tenth for turnovers committed per game, and twenty-fifth for average points scored per game.

 

UCLA is rated 77th in 3-point field goal defense, 11th in efficiency, and 36th in scoring defense. The Bruins are a solid 156th in the nation in rebounding despite having limited size.

 

  • The total went OVER in 7 of UCLA’s last 9 matches.
  • The UCLA Bruins are 7-0 SU in their last 7 matches. 
  • The Bruins are 10-0 SU in their last 10 matches at home.

UC Davis Aggies vs #13 UCLA Bruins. The NCAAB pick for this game is the #13 UCLA Bruins. This might quickly get nasty.

 

With seven consecutive victories, including two over opponents ranked in the top 20, the Bruins are performing their best basketball of the year.

 

UCLA is effective both on offense and defense. They have the third and eleventh most effective offenses and defenses respectively.

 

The Bruins can compete on the boards and shoot the ball at a high rate, but UC Davis, which is rated 28th in the nation overall in rebounding, can rebound with any team in the nation.

 

Both points scored and points surrendered rank them 25th and 36th, respectively. Additionally, the Bruins rank 10th in the nation for turnovers, while the Aggies are only 332nd.

 

Anticipate UCLA to win easily and to pull away from the Aggies in this game. The #13 UCLA Bruins will win to a predicted score of 86-62.
