Prediction
This is a tough one, but I’ll back the Wildcats here on the road. Baylor is 12-1 at home this season, but just 7-5 ATS. Arizona plays well on the road and have covered three of their last four away from Tuscon. The Wildcats are coming off consecutive losses and the reason was poor 3-point shooting. Baylor doesn’t not defend the three very well, in fact, they rank 315th in the country in that category. The Wildcats haven’t lost three in a row all season and I think they get the job done here.
Pick: Arizona +1.5
