The Florida Gators and Arizona Wildcats meet Monday in the college basketball action at the T-Mobile Arena. Here’s a Florida vs Arizona Prediction. This article will include a Florida vs Arizona Pick.
Florida Gators Betting Preview
The Florida Gators won 36 games and a national championship, and they enter year four under coach Todd Golden. Florida has a 69.7 percent winning percentage under Golden.
Alex Condon returns after averaging 10.6 points and 2.2 assists, while Thomas Haugh averaged 9.8 points and 6.1 rebounds. Rueben Chinyelu averaged 6 points and 0.7 assists, and Urban Klavzar played in 258 minutes last season. Florida returns decent depth, but the stars who led the way to a title are gone. However, Florida brings in Xaivian Lee from Princeton and Boogie Fland from Arkansas. Star caliber players, and they put Florida back in the SEC mix and make it a contender to defend its title. Florida still has a quality roster that will have something to say in March.
Arizona Wildcats Betting Preview
The Arizona Wildcats won 24 games last season and enter year five under coach Tommy Lloyd. Arizona has made the big dance in each of the last four seasons.
Jaden Bradley returns after averaging 12.1 points and 3.7 assists, while Tobe Awaka averaged 8 points and 7.8 rebounds. Motiejus Krivas averaged 7.9 points and 1.1 assists, and Anthony Dell’Orso played in 675 minutes last season. Arizona returns some decent production, and Bradley has the ability to pick up where Caleb Love left off last season. Arizona also has a stacked recruiting class coming in led by Koa Peat and Brayden Burries who are 5-star recruits at every site. Young roster for the most part, but Arizona will be a threat in the stacked Big 12 this season.

Florida vs Arizona Prediction
Arizona is a talented team, and you’re not going to get the underdog role often if it plays to its potential. I wouldn’t talk you off the ledge if looking at the points. However, Florida has been too consistent as of late to bet against, and there’s enough returning talent and two major additions in the transfer portal to think things will slow down. Of course, I’d like to make sure Fland plays before locking in a bet. But at the time of this writing and the reasonable number, give me the Gators.
