For Star subscribers: You have been warned. Saturday's game won't be a dunkfest, first-to-100-wins game.
Greg Hansen Of the 1,124 home games played by Arizona basketball teams since 1950, only nine have matched nonconference teams in the AP top 10.So, yes, Saturday’s 8:30 p.m. game between No. 6 Tennessee and No. 9 Arizona should be worthy of staying up past bedtime.
"Arizona and Texas rambled into an alley and slugged it out for 40 minutes," my colleague Bruce Pascoe wrote. This can’t be good news for Arizona coach Tommy Lloyd, a smart guy who surely made his pre-Tennessee practices this week get-tough-or-get-beat, hand-to-hand basketball combat sessions. None of this will be new to Barnes, who probably has brought visiting nonconference teams to McKale Center more than any coach in history. Barnes’ Providence and Texas teams played in Tucson in 1990, 1996, 2001 and 2002, losing to UA teams ranked, in order, No. 4. No. 8, No. 12 and No. 1.
None of his teams since — at Clemson, Texas or Tennessee — have matched those Providence scoring figures. Barnes switched from offense-first to defense-first in the mid-1990s, but not without making an impression on Lute Olson.
