BYU is without Richie Saunders. The Cougars already rely on high powered offense with the dual engines of AJ Dybantsa and Richie Saunders to win games since they play at a brisk pace and defense comes second to them. Without Richie Saunders, a great team like Arizona can make AJ have to do everything and gas him while the Wildcats play a balanced game even without Koa Peat.

Arizona should win and cover pretty easily tonight. It is a wildcat best bet.
