UCLA has been a Jekyll-and-Hyde team all season, and although it has won four of five, we never know when the Bruins will decide not to show up or play up to their capabilities. That is why it's difficult to lay double digits especially against Rutgers, which has won five of eight and the Scarlet Knights currently are on 4-0 ATS run following their 72-67 victory over Minnesota on Wednesday. Tariq Francis scored 29 points, and the Scarlet Knights hit 10 of 23 from 3-point range while shooting 46 percent overall. UCLA is just 14-17 ATS in 2025-26, and this line is inflated a bit after the Bruins shot 58 percent and beat USC 89-68 on Saturday. They are unlikely to shoot that well in consecutive games. Take Rutgers.
