Tomorrow night the Wildcats will be looking to rebound from a 3rd loss at the hands of rival ASU where they historically have been upended. Players and coaches have talked all week about how poorly prepared they were for that game and will be looking to come in focused against a reeling Husky squad who all appear ready for spring break.
The Wildcats have a great defense but ASU shot out of their minds and the game was during the daytime which usually makes for poor defensive efforts.
The wildcats have one the premiere coaches in college hoops and senior leadership at starting positions. As evidence, they have followed up each one their losses with a decisive blowout.
The Wildcats are clearly a team with lots to prove as they are trying to maintain a top seed in the upcoming tournament time as they continue to trail an unproven Gonzaga team and a hot Utah squad that continues to nip at their coat tails.
No doubt the Huskies will be playing alot for pride but realistically this team has been decimated by injuries inside at center and power forward. ASU has an amazing 37% 3pt shooting percentage while Washington shoots below the conference average. How did ASU beat Arizona? You got it! From beyond the arc. Additionally they've surrendered an abysmal amount of turnovers and allow 76pts a game.
Believe me I'm no professional but laying 10points with the Wildcats seems like a great way to buy your mistress that real pearl necklace you've been promising her.
Final score Arizona 75 Washington 58
