Staff Prediction

This is the only ranked matchup on Wednesday. Both teams come in 8-2 and ranked in the top 20. UCLA comes into this game playing their best basketball of the year up to this point, winners of their last 5 games. Maryland is coming off back-to-back losses, after starting 8-0. I think homecourt advantage will be the difference in this even matchup. Maryland will win and cover the 1 point.
