Week of Feb. 14-18: (2-0)

vs. Oregon—WIN

vs. Oregon State—WIN

Week of 21-25: (1-1)

at Colorado—LOSS

at Utah—WIN

This is the most difficult road trip in the Pac-12. Since Steve Alford came to Westwood, UCLA has completed the sweep just once. That was last season and it took a once in a generation college player to do it. I picked Colorado as the loss but it could easily be Utah. Point is, the Bruins go 1-1 on this road trip.

Week of Feb. 28- Mar. 3: (0-1)

at USC—LOSS

OVERALL RECORD

UCLA Basketball 2017-18 Pac-12 Record: 14-4

UCLA Basketball 2017-18 Non-conference record: 11-2

2017-18 regular season record: 25-6

14-4 is not a good enough record to win a top heavy Pac-12 but with a 25-6 overall record, UCLA will have a good seed in the NCAA tournament and the opportunity to make a long run.
