  • If you’re looking for offense, then you have come to the right place. The UCLA Bruins and Creighton Bluejays should bring tons of points to their matchup Monday, as the two teams are averaging 88.3 and 97.7 ppg respectively during this young season.

    Shark Bites
    • UCLA is 1-8 ATS in its last 9 games.
    • Creighton is 2-6 ATS in its last 8 games against teams with winning records.
    • UCLA’s Thomas Welsh is averaging 13 points and 11.3 rebounds per game this season.

    The Bluejays have proven they are the real deal, putting up 92 points on a ranked Northwestern squad last week.
