There might not be anyone more surprised to see UCLA on the Sweet 16 than UCLA fans. It has not been an easy season if you are a fan of the Bruins. They’ve had to overcome the odds throughout the year. They lost five-star recruit Daishen Nix before the season even started, and lost star guard Chris Smith to injury halfway through the season. injured his ACL at the midway point. They were down double digits to MSU in the play-in game before coming back to win. They now must face an Alabama team that plays that loves to demoralize you on both ends of the court. They play rock-solid defense and love to shoot the three. UCLA struggles to defend the perimeter, which will be a big problem if Bama's shots are falling early. Johnny Juzang’s hot hand will be enough to get the Bruins in the fight, but it won’t be enough to keep thas been playing outstanding for UCLA. He will help the Bruins keep this game early but the Bruins don't have enough to stop the onslaught that is sure to come.

Play on Bama. This is a 9* play
