UCLA Bruins vs. Maryland Terrapins: Prediction
This is one of the games I circled on the calendar when the schedule was released. The UCLA Bruins and Maryland Terrapins have what it takes to challenge in their respective conferences to challenge for the title. The Bruins and Terrapins are well-balanced teams that don't rely on one player to bail them out.
The UCLA Bruins are one of the most veteran-laden teams in college basketball, so the hostile crowd in College Park will be nothing they haven't seen. The Terrapins are terrific at home, and that momentum carries them over the finish line. Take the Terps.
Final Prediction: Maryland Terrapins -1.5 (-110) O/U 141.5
