My Wildcats are still cruising

 Arizona Wildcats (11-0)




My Arizona Wildcats continue to remain unbeaten at 11-0.

Ranked No. 8 in the country by the Associated Press College Basketball poll, Arizona faces 18th-ranked Tennessee Wednesday; 4th-ranked UCLA on Dec. 30 and 10th-ranked USC, sporting a 12-0 record, on Jan. 2.

If the Wildcats win all three it would be a feather in their cap, using an old cliche, but it wouldn't be devastating if they lost one. All three games are away. Bummer! Tough games on the road and you can add the game in Tempe on Jan. 8 against the Arizona State Sun Devils to make it four straight games away from the friendly confines of McKale Center.

If the Wildcats continue to get four players in double figures (currently Bennedict Mathurin, 17.4 ppg., Azuolas Tubelis, 16.1 ppg., Christian Koloko, 13.6 ppg., Kerr Kriisa, 11.8 ppg.) and play well defensively, well it is possible the unbeaten streak could continue, making it a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year for Arizona fans.
