College basketball just around the corner

Arizona Wildcats Basketball

It's just nine days away from Arizona's regular-season basketball opener against Pacific at McKale. Nine days! Can't wait.

It's like boarding a train. Destination unknown. Will it be a Pac-12 title? Will it be an NCAA bid, a sweet sixteen appearance, an Elite 8, a Final Four...a National Championship?

The preseason AP Poll says we are the 12th best team in the country. USA Today has us at No. 10. Can we improve on that?

Some of those answers will come quickly, while the answers to many of the above questions will have to wait til February, March and April of 2016.

The good news is we all have our own seat on the train with plenty of countryside to look at along the way.

It should be fun!
