Arizona State vs CBB Arizona Prediction:

In my opinion, this line is too high. The two teams have played each other before, with Arizona beating Arizona State 69-60 in Tempe on New Year’s Eve. That game was closer than it looked, however, with Arizona State trailing by just 2 points with 13 minutes left in the game. The Sun Devils shot 3 of 27 from three-point range and made 18 fewer free throws than the Wildcats in that game. They still lost by just nine. I think Arizona State will shoot better from beyond the arc and the free throw margin will narrow a bit on Saturday. Those two factors should open the door for the Sun Devils to cover, which shouldn’t be too much of a stretch due to the high point spread.

CBB betting predictions: Arizona State Sun Devils +11.5
