Chris’ Pick

I’m backing Arizona here. The Bruins will surely be out for some revenge after Arizona beat them as 20-point underdogs last season, but the thing here is that this line feels awfully short for UCLA if the Bruins were that much better than the Wildcats here. This is a Wildcats team that has lost to the likes of USC and top-5 ranked Washington by a combined 9 points. A win here also clinches bowl eligibility for Arizona. I’ll side with the Wildcats here.
