Arizona Wildcats vs. Alabama Crimson Tide Prediction
I’m on the over in this one. I think Arizona wins, but I think that this is going to be a track meet between two teams that like to get up and down the floor and can score points in bunches. This is going to be one of the games of the night but I think that we get a high-scoring one in this game. Give me the over.
