This is a 10* TOP DISCORD ELITE 8 TOTAL on the OVER Bruins/Wolverines.

Everyone and their dog is expecting a defensive battle here I think, but we look for this one to sneak OVER before it's finished.

The Wolverines are on a mission right now without Isaiah Livers in the line-up. Michigan is great on both ends of the court and its experience should give UCLA issues.

But the Bruins aren't going to down without a fight. If UCLA is going to pull off the upset, it's going to have to stretch Michigan and make it play from behind. That means jacking up a lot of three-point shots (17th best in the country from range.)

UCLA gets to the hoop as well, as it averages seven free throws more per game than its competition.

I get why this number is so low, but one last point is that UCLA has seen the total go OVER in eight of its last 11 after scoring 85 points or more in its previous outing.

All signs point to this one flying well OVER before the final seconds tick off the clock.

Good luck, NP
