TUCSON, AZ – Winning their first-straight game, No. 5 Arizona Basketball (20-3, 9-3) goes for the sweep against Oregon State (9-14, 3-9). 

After losing to Oregon in Eugene three weeks ago, No. 5 Arizona Basketball has been on a roll. Winners of five straight, the Wildcats are back in action as they take on Oregon State.

Returning to the hardwood to face the Beavers, the Wildcats should have a clear advantage here; however, now isn’t the time for Arizona to get complacent and lose sight of bigger things to come on the horizon.

Coming in, the Wildcats are the double-digit favorites, but like their previous games, it is going to take another solid offensive performance, and the defense will have to continue to bring the intensity  if they are going to get the win here!

And with Arizona Basketball preparing for Oregon State, here is how you can watch and follow their game.

Arizona Game Preview:

Resuming conference play against Pac-12 foe Oregon State, Arizona has found its stride again and coming into Saturday’s action, this should be a fun one!

Conference foes, both teams share quite the history here, and overall Arizona has dominated this series, holding the 70-22 advantage since 1975, including winning the last six straight.

The last time both these teams played each other was in Corvallis in January where Arizona came away with the 86-74 victory.

Arizona’s offense is going to need to get to work quickly in this one and keep its momentum going, meanwhile, the defense has to bring the intensity if they are going to avoid Saturday’s upset! Tip-off for this one is currently set for 7:30 P.M. Tucson time!
