UCLA Bruins and Southern Jaguars head-to-head record
UCLA has a strong record against Southern, having won both of their prior meetings handily. After a decisive 79-52 victory in 2007, UCLA defeated Southern 95-47 in their previous meeting on the 18th of November 2016. UCLA's size and scoring prowess in the paint will probably provide a serious obstacle for Southern, especially because Lauren Betts leads the Bruins with 19.6 points, 2.9 blocks, and 9.7 rebounds per game. The Bruins' excellent perimeter shooting, which averages 6.9 made three-pointers every game, may also help to increase the margin. Southern may find it difficult to match UCLA's offensive firepower, even though Soniyah Reed has been a reliable scorer, scoring 12.8 points during the last ten games, while Dakiyah Sanders offers helpful support with her skill and defense. The Bruins are strongly predicted to win easily again, based on their prior meetings and UCLA's ongoing dominance.
