A game the US can finally see! At least those east coasters that stay up late, and those who like to hear Walton and Pasch.

You might be able to count those people on two hands.

Line is sitting at Arizona -3½ right now.

Vegas has been pretty on the nose on Arizona games lately, I'm nervous. Nothing more than following the line though

We've looked shaky on the road but we should pull this out. I think the line is right on the money.

We've only played the two road games, and only one with Rawle (a 16 point win over UNM).

Trier, Ayton, and Rawle all made the flight, right? We're winning by double digits.

when everybody is afraid... I think it's a good signal for a W.

when everybody is confident... I think it's a good signal for an upset.

Well good evening to you too 97!

In a hotel room with ESPN on now (Wichita St Vs Houston) and this'll be one of the few uninterrupted Arizona games I'll watch these next few weeks.

I think it will be close for 3/4 of the game and we wear them down and win by 8-10 points. They will come out playing over their heads and blow their wad too early. Utah is a good team but I think the Cats are really starting to learn their roles and understand the process. Hope to see continued progress and contributions from the bench.

Couldn't fight his way through that pick, but the Utah player missed the wide open 3. But nice to see PJC score the other way then rebound

The Cats are playing outstanding ball on both sides of the floor to start the game.

Great start. Playing with purpose. Hope we can keep this up, it would be great to have a dominant first half

Especially on the road.

Neither was PJC. Unless I'm delusional, though, that appears to have changed.

The lineup before with smith, barcello, Randolph, Alkins, Ristic just completely killed momentum
