Arizona has had a rollercoaster season, highlighted by impressive wins but also some notable losses that raise concerns about consistency. While dominant victories against teams like Canisius and Old Dominion showcase their offensive firepower, the defeats against Wisconsin, Duke, and UCLA—a trio of solid opponents—reveal some vulnerabilities, particularly in their defensive schemes. Their recent win against ranked TCU and a solid sweep of Oklahoma is a positive sign, but games against tough teams such as Texas Tech and Houston will be critical in determining their tournament standing. Maintaining momentum in these upcoming contests, while improving on defensive efforts, will be key to solidifying their position heading into March Madness.
