UCLA vs Stanford Game Preview
Why Stanford Will Win
Okay, Stanford, now do that to the other team in Los Angeles.
The Cardinal pulled off a mini-shocker with a 64-61 win over USC on Thursday night. They shot well enough from the field, were good from three, and they clamped down when they absolutely had to.
They don’t have the offensive burst to keep up in a shootout, but UCLA will be without Johnny Juzang (COVID) and it’s about to play its third game in five games and its fourth in seven.

Why UCLA Will Win
Stanford makes a TON of mistakes.
It kept the turnovers to a minimum with just six against USC to go almost with only 13 fouls. It was by far the team’s cleanest all-around game of the year, and it was a total aberration.
Stanford is usually good for at least 15-to-20 turnovers a game, and the normally has a massive fouling problem.
UCLA doesn’t have to overextend itself. It doesn’t normally turn the ball over for easy points, it should have enough scoring pop to be okay, and it shouldn’t have a problem hitting from three on the Cardinal D.

What’s Going To Happen
How tired is UCLA?
This is a different-style of team than USC, and it’s going to give Stanford a whole lot of problems with plenty of forced errors and a whole lot more scoring. As long as the legs and interest are both there, the Bruins won’t have a whole lot of problems.
They’re going to be too good from the outside.
It takes at least 80 points to beat UCLA, and Stanford won’t get there.
