Arizona Team Total OVER 89.5
Arizona is coming off a Big 12 Championship, but this is still a smash spot offensively against Long Island. I think the Wildcats can get over 89.5 points Friday afternoon.
The Sharks have faced the 26th easiest schedule in college basketball this season. They have played only four teams inside the top 100: Notre Dame scored 89 points and ranks 253rd in tempo, Illinois scored 98 and ranks 270th in tempo, Mississippi State scored 87 and ranks 68th in tempo, and Georgia scored 89 and ranks 11th in pace of play.
Arizona owns the sixth-best offense in the country, the third-best offense across 17 games away from home, and ranks 48th in tempo. This offense now faces a defense ranked 238th over its last ten games.
The last time the Wildcats played a team ranked in the mid-200s, they scored 99 points against South Dakota State on December 29.
Even if the Wildcats are not at their best, they should still be able to clear 90.
