In this Pac-12 matchup, there is a clear favorite I won’t lie to you. Arizona should win this game, but crazier things have happened than a potential Washington upset. Let’s break this one down.
Now Washington has by no metrics been a bad basketball team. They score a decent amount of points, and while they do lack a little bit on defense, they still win games with a record of 15-12 which is respectable. Keion Brooks has been an absolute monster, averaging over 21 points a game, and three of his teammates are also in the double digits. Even with that all being said this will be an uphill battle.
Now Arizona has been very good despite their recent heartbreaking loss to Washington State. I think they take their Washington hatred out in this game and end up with a statement home win against the Huskies. Caleb Love is still one of the best players in college basketball, and his supporting staff are no slouches. The Wildcats have one of the best offenses in the league as well as a top 30 defense. Give me the Wildcats to win this one at home.
