Analysis:

Free Play from Doc’s Sports. Take Over 138 in UCLA Bruins @ Purdue Boilermakers (8p.m., Friday, February 28 FOX) Purdue has been ice cold at the moment losing 4 straight games and seeing their seeding for the NCAA Tournament fall. They score much better at home and the way they will get out of this slump is by making some shots from the arc. They have a great home court advantage and I expect them to reach the high 70s in points in this game.
