Colorado Buffaloes
Colorado may not be a ranked team, but they have played pretty well so far this year. I am excited to see if they can keep this strong play up as the year gets deeper.
The Buffaloes last played on Sunday, where they took care of the Washington Huskies by a score of 78-64. They did just what they had to do against a team they are better than. Now, the challenge will be much more so when they take on the Wildcats.
This is a team that does have experience playing against some top competition this season, as they have already faced off with Tennessee and UCLA. Even though they did not win those games, they were not totally overmatched by them.
Tristan da Silva led the way in scoring for them in their last win with 22 points and 6 rebounds. Jabari Walker also had 11 points and an impressive 13 rebounds.
Arizona Wildcats
Arizona has enjoyed a very nice season so far. It is hard not to be impressed by what this team has done thus far.
The Wildcats come into this matchup with an impressive record of 12-1 and they are ranked as the #6 team in the land. I definitely feel they are among the best teams out there and it would not shock me at all if they made a deep run in March.
This squad last played on January 3rd, where they beat the Washington Huskies by a score of 95-79. In all likelihood, it will be tougher for them when they host the Buffaloes on Thursday.
In the win over the Huskies, this team was absolutely in a groove on the offensive side of things, as three players score 20 or more points. The guy that led the team in scoring was Bennedict Mathurin, who had 27 points on the night. Christian Koloko also had 22 points and 10 boards.

Free Colorado Buffaloes vs. Arizona Wildcats NCAAB Summary:
Arizona will be looking to keep up their strong play when they face off with a foe from their conference on Thursday. Although Colorado is not the better team, they are not going to a soft landing for the Wildcats.
4* Free CBB Betting Pick: Arizona ATS
After not playing in a little bit, I do not think the approach is going to change for Arizona at all. I do not expect them to take their opponent lightly, especially in a game such as this one.
The Buffaloes are certainly a solid team, but they are not on the same level as the Wildcats. I do not think they will really be able to keep up with Arizona on either side of the ball.
The Wildcats have been good ATS lately against Colorado and I think that will keep up on Thursday. I know they are a pretty big favorite, but I like them laying the points because once they hit a groove, I do not give Colorado all that much of a chance.
I like Arizona as a 15 point favorite here.
