In the Stands Report by Bookemdano: The Arizona Wildcats take on the Washington Huskies tomorrow night in Seattle at the Bank of America (BOA) Arena. They have their work cut out for them. The Huskies are a different team at home. Take a look at these stats:
UW is 14-1 at home, but 0-5 on the opponent’s
home court and 0-1 at neutral sites this season:

At BOA: 87.2 68.4 +18.8
Away from BOA: 66.8 79.5 -12.7

Away from BOA: 31.3 35.8 -4.5

Scary! Add the hostile crowd to the mix and it seems a bit unfair. And if that isn't enough, the Huskies will be out for revenge after getting embarrassed by the Wildcats 87-70 at McKale Center last month. If Arizona coach Sean Miller can somehow orchestrate a win over the Huskies on Thursday and the Washington State Cougars on Saturday, then you might as well pencil in Miller as Pac-10 coach of the year!
Good luck 'Cats!
