The No. 2 UCLA Bruins look to advance to the Pac-12 Tournament's next stage when the face the Oregon Ducks in NCAA college basketball action on Friday, March 10.

UCLA hardly broke a sweat in its quarterfinal matchup against Colorado, walking over the Buffaloes in an 80-69 victory. Meanwhile, N'Faly Dante's 16-point, 11-rebound double-double played a big role in Oregon's 75-70 win against Washington State yesterday evening.

Can UCLA continue proving why it's one of the country's best programs? Or does Oregon have what it takes to upset the Pac-12's top team?

UCLA vs Oregon Prediction & Pick

After leading Oregon to victory yesterday, N'Faly Dante is questionable for tonight's game with an ankle injury. If he can't suit up against UCLA, it'd be a blow for the Ducks considering that Dante is their leading scorer and rebounder. Even if he does play, he likely won't be at 100% and will have to deal with the Bruins, who are averaging 39.3 rebounds over their last three games.

While Oregon's winning streak looks impressive on paper, three of those opponents own sub-.500 records. The Ducks are an abysmal 1-6 against ranked opponents this season, which includes a pair of losses to the Bruins. Considering how UCLA held Oregon to a 59.5 PPG clip in those defeats, I don't see the latter's fortunes changing.

UCLA's defense will smother Oregon all night long, leading to another convincing victory for the Bruins.

Final Score Prediction: UCLA: 68 | Oregon: 62

UCLA vs Oregon Best Bet

In a game featuring two top-70 defenses, I'm taking the under on the 134.5-point total. For starters, UCLA and Oregon only surrender a combined 127.2 PPG. Furthermore, the two sides have averaged just 131.7 points in their last three meetings, finishing with fewer than 134.5 in each contest.

Considering how Oregon plays worse against ranked teams while UCLA's defense is among the best in college basketball, offensive expectations should be tempered tonight.

Bet: Under 134.5 Points (-110)
