(NCAAB) Arizona vs. Tennessee,
Point Spread: 1.50 | -105.00 Arizona (Away)
Result: Loss
Tommy Lloyd brought a fast-paced offense (#3) from Gonzaga as well as efficient offense (#14) thanks to having a quality PG and incredible big man. Both teams have played similar strength of schedule with Arizona #218 and Tennessee #224 with the difference being the Wildcats have beaten two top 20 teams while the Vols are 0-2! The Wildcats are in GREAT rhythm having played Dec 8th, 15th and 18th while the Volunteers have played one game since Dec 11th with the Memphis cancellation. The Arizona offense is explosive and I think it will be too much here. Rick Barnes tried to defend the Arizona pick and rolls with scrimmages, but he said it’ll be tough. While Tennessee isn’t a slow paced team, we are backing Arizona to get the win on the road.
