No. 1 – An NCAA Tournament Appearance for Arizona Basketball

The 2018-19 Arizona Basketball season has been a bit of a down one, at least compared to what we’re used to! Crazy to think that a 9-4 record is considered a bit of a disappoint to fans’ normal standards.

However, coming in, we knew this season was going to be a bit of a down year, with a slight chance of some surprises. Arizona still has talent, solid coaching and a strong fan base to perhaps wield them to another a solid year.

Luckily for us and Arizona, the Pac-12 is also down this year. So, perhaps anything can happen! Also, I think the team’s best basketball is ahead of them still.

Their work will be cut out for them, but perhaps the Wildcats and Sean Miller can get it done once again! They have had a pretty tough schedule so far, and a favorable Pac-12 slate could be what this team needs. Should the Cats win 11-to-12 games in the Pac-12, then perhaps it’s doable.

I know I am not alone in wishing this here, but I truly do wish for Arizona to just get back to the NCAA Tournament again…. please!

At Zona Zealots, we hope you enjoyed the Christmas wish list! Does yours differ a bit from ours? Please let us know on Twitter or Facebook! We would also like to wish you a happy holidays, and as always, Bear Down!
