UAB vs. UCLA Betting Line: Bruins Already Own Win Over Blazers This Season
The UAB vs. UCLA betting line can be found at MyBookie.ag.
The number 14-seeded Blazers stunned number 3 seed Iowa State on Thursday with a one-point victory and thus became one of the biggest bracket busters of the day. Of the 11.57 million brackets entered in ESPN's Tournament Challenge, only 5.1 percent picked the Blazers to upset Iowa State in the first round of the NCAA tournament.
Over the last 20 seasons, UAB is the 4th largest underdog to win an NCAA Tournament game. At one point Iowa State had become a -14 favorite.
UAB's 60-59 win over Iowa State is the second-most unlikely Round of 64 upset since the start of the 2012 NCAA Tournament, based on BPI's pre-tournament projections.
Iowa State became the fourth Big 12 Tournament champion to lose their first NCAA Tournament game since the conference began in 1996-97.
UAB will face a UCLA team that was seeded at number 11 and itself stunned heavily favored SMU. This was one of five games decided by a point on Thursday.
The Bruins come into this game as a -6 point favorite.
UAB is 16-6 Against The Spread in their last 22 games overall while UCLA are 8-2 ATS in their last 10 games overall.
UCLA met UAB early in the season, beating them 88-76.
