In this article, we will formulate a UCLA vs Cal State Fullerton Prediction for this college basketball game on Friday, November 22nd, at the Pauley Pavillion. 

What Should We Think About UCLA?

The big question for UCLA is what we should be thinking about this UCLA team. The Bruins come into this game with a 4-1 record but the only loss was a disappointing one against the New Mexico Lobos. In each of the last two games the offense has been impressive and they will look for that similar success here. In the last game against Idaho State, UCLA scored 84 points and they ended up cruising to a 14-point victory. The Bruins shot 57.4 percent from the field and 64.3 percent from behind the three-point line. UCLA on the season is averaging 77.8 points while their defense is giving up 55.4 points per game.

  • Cal State Fullerton has lost eight of its last nine road games.
  • Cal State Fullerton has lost the first half in five of its last six games.

Cal State Fullerton Coming Off First Win

John Square Jr had a strong game putting up 17 points, five rebounds, and three assists. The Titans are averaging 59.6 points while their defense is giving up 76.6 points per game. The offense is ranked 353rd while the defense is ranked 286th. 

UCLA vs Cal State Fullerton Prediction

Cal State Fullerton is coming off a win in the last game, but overall this offense has been an issue and they are going to really struggle to get the offense going here. Cal State Fullerton is averaging only 59 points per game and they are going to really struggle to get going here. UCLA is going to continue to hit the shots from deep and ULCA is going to cruise here. Back UCLA against the spread here.
