Arizona Would Like To Bounce Back from Lackluster Win
Washington State Hopes To Make Waves
NCAA basketball odds show that the Arizona Wildcats is a 12-point favorite to take down Washington State.

Washington State hasn’t found many things to happen easily for them this season. The Cougars are 6-10 and only 1-4 in conference play.
While a postseason big seems unlikely at this point, for any tournament, a win over Arizona could provide the long spark for a winning streak that would make such an improbable run much more likely.
