TUCSON, AZ – Returning to McKale Center following their loss to Stanford, No. 8 Arizona Basketball (22-4, 11-4) looks to rebound against Utah (17-9, 10-5).

Snapping its seven-game win streak at Stanford, No. 8 Arizona Basketball is back in action again, looking to rebound from its tough loss to the Cardinal on Saturday evening.

Returning to the hardwood to face the Utah Utes, the Wildcats should have a slight advantage here; however, as we all saw the last time these two teams faced, Utah came away with the convincing win in Salt Lake City.

Coming in, the Wildcats are the favorites, but like their previous games, it is going to take another solid offensive performance, and the defense will have to bring a better effort this game if they are going to get the win here!

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