Bruce Pascoe No. 4 Arizona at Utah Huntsman Center Salt Lake City 6:30 p.m. Pac-12 Networks 1290-AM, Varsity NetworkProbable startersARIZONAG Kerr Kriisa People are also reading… G Rollie Worster How they match upThe series: Arizona leads the alltime series 37-31 and is 16-3 against the Utes since Utah joined the Pac-12 in 2011-12. The Wildcats have lost three of their past five games against Utah in Salt Lake City but beat the Utes 97-77 at the Huntsman Center last season.
Utah opened the season with four straight home games, beating LIU, Cal State Bakersfield and Idaho State before losing to Sam Houston State, 65-55. They then beat Georgia Tech at the Ft. Myers Tip-Off, when Madsen scored 16 points, and lost to Mississippi State in their second game of the Florida event. Utah last played St. Thomas, clubbing the second-year Division I team 95-66.
Branden Carlson is “an athlete. You can’t let him roll behind you. We know that he can pick and pop and he can shoot it a little bit. So we have to be ready for him. I think we’re already played a lot of the top bigs in the country and he is another of them.” “And I like the game of soccer because I look at the spacing, the timing, the flow, and maybe there’s some carryover to how we’re trying to play. You know, I’m probably closer to a soccer oriented coach than an American football oriented coach.”Because the Pac-12 wanted to reach 20 conference games by wrapping two of them for each team around its football championship game when the schedule expanded in 2020-21, this season’s league race already was underway when USC played at Cal on Wednesday.
