Arizona is really starting to peak. They might be the best team in the PAC 12 after all.
The Cougars are definitely nothing special. They are pretty much a one player team most nights.
With top teams falling all around them Arizona can keep rising in the rankings. This spot looks like an easy win.
Washington State Cougars
If the Cougars finished last in the PAC 12 this season it would have been no surprise so a few early wins it not so bad.
There is no doubt who drives this Wazzu team. Josh Hawkinson’s numbers have not grown much from a year ago but the dude is essentially a double-double machine averaging 15 and 10.
Freshman Malachi Flynn shows promise and is second on the team in scoring at 11ppg. He is also tops on the team in assists.

Conor Clifford is a 7 footer who makes sure that Hawkinson does not have to guard all the bigs in the PAC 12. He is a modest contributor who’s best skill is size.
Wazzu is not a great team but there is one thing they do especially well, make free throws, they are 77% good for 11th in the country.
Unfortunately that is hard to correlate to anything meaningful when it comes to handicapping.
Arizona Wildcats
Gonzaga just leapt to the top spot in a lot of rankings. One of the reasons for that is that they beat this very good Arizona team. They got them early and I am not sure they could do it again.
That was the last time they lost this season and they are on a 12 game winning streak. They are looking really sharp off wins over UCLA and USC on the road and they just got Alonzo Trier back.
He was only their leading returning scorer from a year ago. Everything is on the up in the desert.

Trier will team with freshman Lauri Maurkannen, a freshman from Finland who has a very smooth game. He has length and in typical euro fashion is a strong shooter and never in a hurry with the ball.
With Trier in the fold this team could certainly get through the rest of their schedule unscathed. It won’t be easy but this one should be.

Free Washington State Cougars vs. Arizona Wildcats NCAAB Prediction:
Every reason for Arizona to be a big favourite at home. They can cover it too.
Still this could be a flat spot coming home. They will win but maybe they don’t dominate like they are fully capable.
4* Free CBB Betting Pick: Washington State +23.5
I am not big on Wazzu but they make just enough shots to cover the backdoor in this one.
