Arizona at Washington picks and predictions

Prediction

Arizona 76, Washington 71

Moneyline

PASS.

Arizona is 3-2 straight up on the road while Washington is 10-4 at home. Washington (+325) may have some value, but the spread is the better wager.

Against the spread

BET WASHINGTON +9.5 (-115).

The Huskies rank in the top 75 for opponents’ field goal percentage (41.1%) and opponents’ 3-point field goal percentage (29.4%).

Washington is solid defensively and has been good in conference play, posting a 6-5 ATS record within the Pac-12. Arizona is tied for the 2nd-worst covering rate in the Pac-12 at 3-7 ATS and it is also just 1-4 ATS on the road.

The Wildcats haven’t played well lately and given the Huskies’ strength is defensive, so back WASHINGTON +9.5 (-115).

Over/Under

LEAN UNDER 151.5 (-110).

Washington is 14-8 O/U, but it is 1-3 O/U in its last 4 games with a total of 140 or more. The Huskies are 6-5 O/U in conference games while Arizona is 3-7 O/U.

The Wildcats are 9-12 O/U, and they are 2-6 O/U in their last 8 games. The Wildcats have scored 65 or fewer points in 2 straight games and may again struggle against a solid Huskies defense.

Considering the conference-play trends and the Wildcats’ weakness on the total, back the UNDER 151.5 (-110).

Arizona at Washington State odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Thursday’s Arizona at Washington State odds and lines, with college basketball expert picks, predictions and best bets.

The No. 8 Arizona Wildcats (17-3, 6-3 Pac-12) visit the Washington State Cougars (9-12, 4-6) Thursday night. Tip from Friel Court at Beasley Coliseum is set for 11 p.m. ET (FS1). Below, we analyze Tipico Sportsbook’s lines around the Arizona vs. Washington State odds, and make our expert college basketball picks, predictions and bets.

Arizona took down UCLA 58-52 Saturday, covering as 2-point home favorites. It has now covered in back-to-back games but is 2-4 in its last 6. The Wildcats are 8-11-1 against the spread (ATS) this season. Their offense ranks 13th in the nation in scoring, averaging 83.3 points per game (PPG) while shooting 48.74% from the field (19th).

Washington State fell to Colorado 58-55 Sunday, but still covered as 5.5-point road underdogs. It is 3-2 ATS in its last 5 and 5-5 ATS in its last 10. This season, the Cougars are 10-11 ATS. Washington State’s offense has struggled, shooting 43.14% (256th) and averaging 68 PPG (271st).

Arizona at Washington State picks and predictions

Prediction

Arizona 72, Washington State 63

Moneyline

PASS.

There is no value on the Arizona (-210) moneyline play in this one.

Against the spread

LEAN ARIZONA -5.5 (-105).

Arizona has a fast-paced offense, averaging more than 83 PPG going up against a Washington State defense that ranks 273rd in the nation for opponent field goal percentage (45%).

In their earlier matchup this season, the Cougars got the best of the Wildcats on their home floor, beating them by 13 and covering as 12-point road underdogs. Expect Arizona to be looking for revenge in this one as they make a push for the top 5.

The favorite is 19-7 ATS in the last 26 meetings between these 2 teams and the road team is 8-3 in their last 11 meetings.

Over/Under

BET UNDER 145.5 (-115).

The Under is 6-0 in the Wildcats’ last 6 games following a ATS win, 4-1 in their last 5 following a straight-up win and 6-1 in their last 7 against a team with a losing straight-up record. The Under is also 5-2 in their last 7 games overall.

For the Cougars, the Under is 4-1 in their last 5 overall. It is 11-4 in their last 15 games against a team with a winning straight-up record and 19-7 in their last 26 following a straight-up loss.

UCLA at Arizona odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Saturday’s UCLA at Arizona odds and lines, with college basketball expert picks, predictions and best bets.

The No. 5 UCLA Bruins (17-2, 8-0 Pac-12) and No. 11 Arizona Wildcats (16-3, 5-3) meet Saturday at McHale Center in Tucson. Tip-off is scheduled for 2 p.m. ET (ABC). Below, we analyze Tipico Sportsbook’s lines around the UCLA vs. Arizona odds, and make our expert college basketball picks, predictions and bets.

Rankings courtesy of the USA TODAY Sports Coaches Poll.

The Bruins have rattled off 14 consecutive victories since a neutral-floor setback against Baylor back on Nov. 20. UCLA has been hot against the number, too, posting a solid 7-2 against the spread (ATS) mark across the past 9 games overall. The Under is 7-1 in the previous 8 outings.

The Wildcats spanked the USC Trojans 81-66 on Thursday. Arizona was ornery after getting its behind kicked in Oregon last Saturday by an 87-68 count as a 4-point favorite. Arizona has been up and down lately, going just 2-2 straight up across the past 4 outings and 2-5-1 ATS over the previous 8 contests.

UCLA at Arizona picks and predictions

Prediction

UCLA 76, Arizona 72

Moneyline

UCLA (+100) is the play straight up if you don’t want to fiddle around with the points. However, these lines opened very close to interchangeable, and it likely will close the same way.

The Bruins are on a 14-game win streak, and while facing the Wildcats in their building is never easy, UCLA is catching Arizona at a great time.

Against the spread

UCLA +1.5 (-115) doesn’t make a lot of sense. If you like the Bruins to win straight up, that’s easily the better play.

PASS.

Over/Under

UNDER 148.5 (-105) is the lean, but this warrants just a half-unit play at best.

The Under is 7-1 in UCLA’s past 8 games overall, while going 5-2 in its last 7 tries against teams with a winning overall record.

The Under has hit in 7 of the past 10 games overall for Arizona while going 6-1 in its past 7 at home and 5-2 in the past 7 against teams with a winning overall mark.

USC at Arizona odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Thursday’s USC at Arizona odds and lines, with college basketball expert picks, predictions and best bets.

The USC Trojans (13-5, 5-2 Pac-12) and No. 11 Arizona Wildcats (15-3, 4-3) meet Thursday at McKale Center in Tucson. Tip-off is scheduled for 9 p.m. ET (Pac-12 Network). Below, we analyze Tipico Sportsbook’s lines around the USC vs. Arizona odds, and make our expert college basketball picks, predictions and bets.

Rankings courtesy of the USA TODAY Sports Coaches Poll.

The Trojans head to Tucson with a pair of home wins over Colorado (68-61, last Thursday) and Utah (71-56, Saturday). However, USC lost its most recent road showing at UCLA on Jan. 5, and it also fell at Washington State prior to that on New Year’s Day. The good news is that USC is 6-1 against the spread (ATS) across the past 7 games overall.

The Wildcats are looking to rebound back from an 87-68 loss at Oregon, and they head into this home matchup looking to snap an 0-4 ATS slide. Arizona has scored 70 or fewer points in 4 of the past 5 games, and the Under is 3-2 during the span.

USC at Arizona picks and predictions

Prediction

Arizona 76, USC 71

Moneyline

The moneyline was OTB at the time of publication.

However, Arizona will be too much risk for not enough reward when it does open, and even playing it in a multi-team parlay won’t be a great play, as there is just no value here.

PASS.

Against the spread

USC +7.5 (-105) is a decent play on the road, as the Trojans look for a 4th consecutive cover. On the flip side, Arizona has failed to cover in each of the previous 4 outings.

The Trojans are 6-1 ATS in the past 7 games overall, and 6-0 ATS in the previous 6 against teams with a winning overall mark.

Arizona is just 0-3-1 ATS in the past 4 games at McKale Center and 3-9 ATS in the past 12 games following a non-cover.

Over/Under

UNDER 151.5 (-105) is the lean, but go rather lightly.

The Under has registered in 5 of the past 6 games at home for Arizona, while going 5-1 in the past 6 games against teams with a winning percentage of .600 or better, too.

The Under is 4-1 in the past 5 for USC against teams with a winning percentage over .600 and has cashed at a 5-2 clip in the past 7 following a cover.

Arizona at Oregon State odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Thursday’s Arizona at Oregon State odds and lines, with college basketball expert picks, predictions and best bets.

The No. 9 Arizona Wildcats (14-2, 3-2 Pac-12) and Oregon State Beavers (7-9, 1-4) meet Thursday. The opening tip at Gill Coliseum in Corvallis will be at 11 p.m. ET (ESPN2). Below, we analyze Tipico Sportsbook’s lines around the Arizona vs. Oregon State odds, and make our expert college basketball picks, predictions and bets.

Arizona was upset 74-61 as a 12-point favorite against Washington State Saturday. The Wildcats were undone by uncharacteristically allowing 14 offensive rebounds and by shooting a season-low 31.7% from the floor. The loss in Tucson snapped an 8-game win streak.

The Beavers are 0-3 straight up and 1-2 against the spread over their last 3 games. Oregon State is a slow-paced team that also struggles with its offensive efficiency and was held to a season-low 42 points in its last game, a 62-42 loss at Colorado Saturday.

Arizona at Oregon State picks and predictions

Prediction

Arizona 82, Oregon State 67

Moneyline

Arizona (-2000) is far too steep as a standalone wager or in a parlay. PASS.

Against the spread

Oregon State has been wildly inconsistent and cannot be recommended in this spot, but the spread is also a couple of points away from any value for Arizona. PASS.

Over/Under

The Over is 4-1 in the Wildcats’ last 5 games following a straight-up loss and is 5-1 in the Beavers’ last 6 games after scoring fewer than 50 points in their previous game.

The last time Arizona lost a game, it popped back up with a solid offensive performance by pouring in 81 points against a slow team in the Cal Golden Bears on Dec. 4. The Over hit in that contest and has in 4 of 5 UA games against teams outside the KenPom top-150.

Washington State at Arizona odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Saturday’s Washington State at Arizona odds and lines, with college basketball expert picks, predictions and best bets.

The Washington State Cougars (6-10, 1-4 Pac-12) take on the No. 4 Arizona Wildcats (14-1, 3-1) Saturday. Tip at McKale Center is at 5 p.m. ET (Pac-12 Network). Below, we analyze Tipico Sportsbook’s lines around the Washington State vs. Arizona odds, and make our expert college basketball picks, predictions and bets.

Rankings courtesy of the USA TODAY Sports Coaches Poll.

Arizona enters off a 70-67 win against Washington Thursday. The Wildcats average 87.5 points per game (3rd) and will attempt to get their scoring back on track against a Cougars team that allows only 66.4 points (109th). Arizona has been stellar this entire season with its only loss coming by way of an 81-66 decision at Utah on Dec. 1.

Washington State has struggled this season and will hope to gain momentum by beating one of the top teams in the country on its home court. F DJ Rodman was the leading scorer for Washington against Arizona State with 16 points in a 77-71 loss Thursday and will need to have a big outing Saturday.

BET WASHINGTON STATE +12.5 (-115).

Washington at Arizona odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Thursday’s Washington at Arizona odds and lines, with college basketball expert picks, predictions and best bets.

The Washington Huskies (9-6, 1-3 Pac-12) and No. 4 Arizona Wildcats (13-1, 2-1) clash Thursday at McKale Center in Tucson. Start time is slated for 11 p.m. ET (FS1). Below, we analyze Tipico Sportsbook’s lines around the Washington vs. Arizona odds, and make our expert college basketball picks, predictions and bets.

Rankings courtesy of the USA TODAY Sports Coaches Poll.

Washington heads to Tucson on a 3-game losing skid (straight up and against the spread (ATS)). All 3 losses were at home, and the Huskies shot worse than 37% from the field in each. UW went just 2 of 25 from beyond the arc in scoring a season-low 49 points in a 74-49 loss to UCLA Saturday.

The Wildcats flip the calendar after going 7-for-8 in December. Arizona is coming off a 69-60 Saturday win at Arizona State. UA’s 69 points were its fewest in a single game since the team’s lone loss, an 81-66 loss at Utah Dec. 1.

Washington at Arizona picks and predictions

Prediction

Arizona 91, Washington 69

Moneyline

Arizona (-2000) should comfortably win but there is no value on betting 20 times your potential return — the risk isn’t worth the reward. STEER CLEAR.

Against the spread

This is a big number, but Washington is dealing with a couple of key injuries. Expect a lot of Huskies turnovers and Wildcats offensive rebounds.

A year ago (Jan. 3, 2022), UA hosted UW and was favored by 24.5.

Consider a partial-unit play on the WILDCATS -18.5 (-105).

Over/Under

The Over is 6-1 in the Huskies’ last 7 road games following 3 or more consecutive home games. The Over is 9-2 in Arizona’s last 11 home games against foes with a losing road record.

Washington plays at a slow pace, but the Over is 4-1 across its last 5 games. Both teams have played a schedule heavy with good defensive squads, and Arizona should bounce back after its 69-point game Saturday.

BACK THE OVER 154.5 (-105).

Tennessee at Arizona odds, picks and predictions

Analyzing Saturday’s Tennessee at Arizona odds and lines, with college basketball expert picks, predictions and best bets.

The No. 7 Tennessee Volunteers (9-1) travel to Tucson to battle the No. 9 Arizona Wildcats (9-1) Saturday at 10:30 p.m. ET (ESPN2). Below, we analyze Tipico Sportsbook’s lines around the Tennessee vs. Arizona odds, and make our expert college basketball picks, predictions and bets.

This could be the best game of the young season. Arizona and its offense, which averages 92.5 ppg, will be going against Tennessee, who only allows 51 points per game. According to KenPom rankings, this will be a matchup of the best offense in America against the best defense in America. A true clash of styles.

Arizona can live or die by the 3-point shot in this game. If it is falling for them, the Wildcats can easily blow Tennessee off the floor. If Tennessee can slow this game down, which is what they want to do, they will be able to remain in this game and pull off an upset in the desert. This will be an exciting game of two contrasting styles. Whichever team can set the pace will be the victors.

Tennessee at Arizona picks and predictions

Prediction

Arizona 75, Tennessee 67

Moneyline

PASS on the Moneyline.

Tennessee has a real chance to win this game. But my feeling is with Arizona being at home, they will pull off the victory Saturday night.

Tennessee has the defense to slow the Wildcats. And it will. But not enough. With Arizona the victor, -170 is just a bit too high to wager on.

Against the spread

BET Arizona -3.5 (-110).

Arizona will hit enough 3’s to win this game. It may be close the stretch. But the shooting ability of Arizona will overcome the stifling defense of Tennessee to put up enough points to win and cover this small number. -3.5 seems right for this game. But I still like the Wildcats to cover. Arizona -3.5 (-110) is my favorite play.

Over/Under

BET UNDER 150.5 (-110).

Tennessee, and the No. 1 defense per KenPom, will hold Arizona down. This means Arizona will not get to its 92.5-point average. But it also means Tennessee will not need to score as much.

With Arizona getting to only 75, Tennessee will not get the game to the Over. Under 150.5 (-110) is the play.
