Arizona vs Auburn Prediction

I’ll take a shot on Auburn here, but you could make the case either way. The Tigers have just two games under their belt this year so far, and both have been wins versus overmatched teams. First was a 92-59 affair versus SE Louisiana. In that one Auburn hit 51 percent of their shots with a 50-37 rebounding edge but also had 14 turnovers and a sketchy 59 percent (16-of-27) at the line. In game two versus App State, Auburn took a 22-point victory on a 40-35 rebounding edge and just 32 percent shooting allowed defensively. The offense wasn’t that hot (41 percent) but there were a lot of bench minutes out there to be fair.

As for Arizona, they’re sitting on consecutive wins following their opener loss to UCLA. In their most recent victory over Northern Arizona, the Wildcats rolled to a 31-point victory on the strength of 62 percent shooting, a 32-24 rebounding edge and just six turnovers. Arizona gave up 41 percent shooting on the other side and benefitted from the Lumberjacks’ 15 turnovers. The Wildcats have scored well this year with 75 or more points in all three games and a combined 194 in their two wins. Auburn is going to have to hit the gas on the scoreboard but I think they’ve got the goods to cover. It’ll be a fun game.
