Tough opponent UNLV, but AZ gets it done with defense in the 2nd. Hopefully we're #1 when the poles come out Monday. :)

Putting it on the line tonight against New Mexico State, they have a 7'-5" center. :eek:

Lots of famous people in the crowd, always enjoy that about LA games. Good game so far. Too bad you couldn't make it.

Cats started playing in the second half. Coach Miller called it at the half " We have to start playing like men" Great to win on ESPN!!! Tied best ever start in the History of U of A Basketball. 16-0:partyguy:

They played great the second half, excluding the 6:15 to :45 second mark. They can't have lapses like that and stay #1.

Yea, turnovers almost caused the opposite outcome. I think that is UA's Achilles, take better care of the ball.

Utah played good, we played sloppy. Team needed a challenge to wake up. Thinking this game will get them to focus over the next few weeks.

Yea, I hope so. Played sloppy in the second half against Colorado too. Won't get away with it against Cal and Stanford on the road this week.
I see MSU lost to Mich today.

Wow. Needed that test. Good game for them to test how to win when you are playing poor.

I agree, hope AZ plays better at Cal, Mike Montgomery will have the Bears ready.

Came across this yesterday! Bear down!! :schreck:

Dear Trolls,
Before you try to say that Arizona has a weak schedule, let me educate you.

3 different sources (listed below) have Arizona's schedule ranked as 12th, 17th, 19th. According to ESPN, we are 5-0 against the RPI top 25, 6-0 against the top 50, 8-0 against the top 100 and 11-0 against the top 110. We have signature wins including at #5 SDSU (18-1, #18 RPI), at #10 Michigan (15-4, #14 RPI), neutral site against #17 Duke (17-4, #11 RPI) and at UCLA (16-4, #20 RPI). Want to argue that Arizona's future schedule is filled with cupcakes? We have 6 more games against the RPI top 50 and 2 games against the #51 RPI. The Pac-12 is currently the 3rd ranked conference in the NCAA.

If you still wish to troll after reading these facts, you are admitting that you know nothing about basketball and that you are really just jealous that your team does not have the awesome resume that Arizona has. You admit that clearly Arizona is the best team since you are choosing to take the time to come on here and comment.

Thank you. Have a nice day.

It matters with seed and region placement. Seems like you only watch the tournament and nothing more......

Yes your right. But after that. SEEDING MEANS NOTHING. Its one and done. You do understand that don't you CC.

In fairness to Bobby, I understand his allegiance to UCLA and I applaud how he roots for them. In fact, I feel sorry for people that don't root for "their" team. Fair weather fans aren't really fans at all.

Nice! I'm glad the selection committee didn't have time to dwell on yesterday's loss. I think the strongest RPI carried them to the 1 Seed in the West. Wish they would have got #1 overall though.
