The UCLA Bruins (15-6) aim to keep their momentum rolling as they go for their fifth consecutive victory when they welcome the No. 16 Oregon Ducks (16-4) to Pauley Pavilion on Thursday night. Tip-off is set for 10:30 PM ET, with coverage on Fox Sports 1.
The Oregon Ducks are looking to notch their sixth conference win, currently sitting at 5-4 in league play. Their conference campaign has been a mixed bag, featuring a solid road victory over Ohio State and a strong showing against Penn State. Earlier this month, they suffered a setback against Purdue but bounced back with a home win over Washington. However, their defensive struggles were on full display in a 77-69 road loss to Minnesota, where they entered as five-point favorites. Lately, the Ducks have had trouble covering the spread, managing to do so in just one of their last five outings.
Meanwhile, the UCLA Bruins are riding a four-game hot streak and looking to make it five in a row. After a rough start to conference play, where they found themselves at 2-4, the Bruins have turned things around in impressive fashion. Their resurgence includes wins over Iowa, Wisconsin, and Washington, along with a gritty 82-76 road triumph over USC on Monday. With that victory, UCLA improved to 6-4 in Big Ten competition.
