Arizona State takes three-game streak to UCLA

Coming off of a 76-60 win over Washington this weekend, the No. 12 UCLA Bruins welcome Arizona State to Pauley Pavilion. The Bruins are the clear favorites, in Vegas and everywhere else, but the Sun Devils are in the midst of a streak. After a close win over Washington State last week, ASU posted two huge wins versus Oregon and Oregon State.

Luckily for the Bruins, they’re essentially a lock for the NCAA tournament with their 19-5 record (11-4 in Pac 12 play). However, bracketologist Joe Lunardi currently sees UCLA as a three-seed in March. Avoiding a major upset is still key at this time of year. Despite their streak, the Sun Devils don’t have a legitimate shot at the big dance, unless they take it all in the conference tournament.
