Think Chattanooga (2-3) wants to run this far from home, winless on the road? This is their second road game in three nights. There's no sense trying to go uptempo with powerhouse UCLA, and this Bruins team is on a 7-3 run UNDER the total. No. 24 UCLA (4-0) has been perfect while playing great defense, allowing 60, 50, and 70 points the last three games. The offense is ranked 66th in the nation in scoring, still without 6-9 freshman forward Wanaah Bail (knee), who is expected to make his debut next week. The UNDER is 4-1 in the Bruins last five games following a win, and the Bruins match up well defensively against the road weary visitors. The Mocs are 4-9 ATS in their last 13 road games vs. a team with a winning home record, and 2-6 ATS against a team with a home winning percentage of greater than .600. No. 24 UCLA (4-0) has been perfect -- and getting better. The Bruins are nearing full strength with Bail expected to make his debut next week, while senior Travis Wear, who missed the Bruins’ first three games due to an appendectomy, returned with 11 points and four rebounds in 22 minutes the last game, an 81-70 win. The Bruins are 4-1 ATS in their last five home games vs. a team with a losing road record. UCLA has opened the year shooting 50.4 percent from the field while outscoring its first four opponents by an average of 20.8 points. The home team holds all the cards. Play UCLA and UNDER the total.
