Arizona has four top-25 victories and the Cougars have zero, as they’re 0-2 SU against top-15 teams. On the season, BYU is 8-11 ATS and 2-4 ATS in the Big 12 play. The Cougars have struggled with turnovers in conference play and have shown they can get off the slow starts which is something you can’t do against Arizona. The Cougars really have three main players and Arizona has the defensive capability of limiting their production. The Wildcats are the deeper team, being able to be efficient on offense in many ways.
Arizona (20-0) is ranked No. 1 in the nation and travels to Provo to face No. 13 BYU (17-2) for a Monday night Big 12 clash. They met twice last season, with Arizona winning the first meeting at Provo and BYU returning the favor and winning at Arizona. Both games went over the total. The last four meetings have gone over the total, and I'm expecting this game to also get over the total. Arizona has gone over only 11 out of 20 games because its defense dominates with 39% shooting allowed. But BYU shoots 49% from the field while Arizona shoots 51.6%. Both have good shot selection. Arizona scores 89.8 points per game; BYU scores 86.8 per game. Over.
