Connecticut at Arizona

The UConn Huskies return to the floor after an exam break, and have a key three game set coming up. Tonight it is at #18 Arizona, then onto Auburn, and their AAC opener with Wichita State. The Huskies are 7-3 on the season, but have struggled vs. some lesser teams, but own a win vs. the Pac-12's Oregon, and played tough against Syracuse. Jalen Adams and Terry Larrier give the Huskies some NBA caliber players that should be enough to allow them to stay in touch here. Arizona has some big guys in the middle, and would not be surprised to see UConn coach Kevin Ollie play some zone to close up the interior and dare the Wildcats to beat them from outside. Ollie has a tendency to stay with starters even when down a lot late, so a backdoor cover isn't out of the question either. Take the points on UConn.
