The Morgan State Bears are very inconsistent: they only have 4 wins, and all of them against very modest teams. As soon as they face serious teams, will they show that they are not yet ready for top competition.
The worst part is they haven’t faced anyone in the Top 20 in the nation, and Arizona is Top 5. Their average score per game is not low: 80.9 per game, but they allow at least 70 and sometimes it’s not enough to win.
The alarming thing is that in none of the matches they have lost have they been able to have an advantage during the game, they basically spend the whole time chasing the opponent, which is exhausting. Their shot selection is not correct, and they waste a lot of time with the ball.
Betting on the Arizona Wildcats
- Regular Season Record: 10-1
- BetMGM Spread: (To be determined)
- BetMGM Moneyline: (To be determined)
- BetMGM Over/Under: (To be determined)
The Arizona Wildcats have only had one defeat that was not budgeted for. It was against Utah, and they fell by 81-66, which didn’t look so good, and lost a six-game winning streak, including several by beatings.
They recovered mentally and have now added four in a row in the win column. Azuolas Tubelis is the axis of the offense lately and has 4 games with at least 19 points and against California he scored 25 units and 12 rebounds.
Arizona is poised to have a great tournament and some analysts have even put them in the Final Four, but for that they need to keep getting positive results and proving they are elite players. Morgan State is an excellent opportunity for this.
JefeBet Prediction
Unfortunately for the Bears, they are going to serve as cannon fodder for the Wildcats, who are on a mission and can’t afford another loss like the one they had previously, which served to plug them in, and now they are more connected than ever.
Morgan State is a low-key program that benefits greatly from the experience of playing against these types of powerhouses. They will put up a fight, but they will fall.
Prediction: Arizona Wildcats Spread.
