UCLA vs Alabama prediction for 2024 Women's College World Series

Justin Martinez, The Oklahoman: "Alabama pulled off the biggest upset of the Super Regionals when it earned a 2-1 series win over No. 3 Tennessee. But it'll be a challenge to keep up on the scoreboard with UCLA, which ranks 15th in the nation in runs per game (6.2). The Bruins are led by the redshirt senior duo of Maya Brady and Sharlize Palacios, who've combined for 125 RBIs and 37 home runs this season. Give me UCLA, which will generate just enough offense to get the win."

Prediction: UCLA 6, Alabama 4

DraftKings: UCLA (-185) is favored to beat Alabama in the Women's College World Series
