They are coming off a win against the Norfolk State Spartans in their last game. Motiejus Krivas led the team in points in that game with 20 while Koa Peat was next on the team with 16.

The current betting odds have Arizona listed as a 7.5 point favorite in this game according to Draftkings Sportsbook. Arizona has looked great in their games this season with their 7-0 record overall which has them right at the top of the Big 12. They have looked great on their home court this year with their 4-0 home record and they are ranked inside the top 2 teams in the nation at the moment. Meanwhile, Auburn has looked good in their games this season with their 7-2 record overall, but that record has them lower in the SEC. They are currently ranked inside the top 25, but they aren't a highly ranked team and this will be their first road game of the season too. Auburn has picked up some good wins this season, but they have also fallen short in some of their games against stronger opponents. They lost a really tight game against Houston who is a really good team, but they weren't even competitive in their loss to Michigan. This team definitely isn't the same team under Steven Pearl as it was under Bruce and they are still trying to find their way, no longer being one of the more dominant teams in the nation. Arizona has taken over as one of those teams though, pulling off some very impressive wins this season. They have a lot of talent on their team with Koa Peat leading the way and lately they have been blowing out a lot of their opponents. They are going to bring their best effort for a ranked opponent at home and they have a big edge here with the home advantage since Auburn is playing their first road game of the year. The best way to place a bet here is on Arizona to cover the spread in this game.

"Our execution has got to get better for us to beat the best teams on our schedule. Our offense has got to get better. If it wasn't for tough shotmaking by KO (Kevin Overton) and Keyshawn Hall, we don't win that game. Two of our best players bailed us out when we had very poor performances from other guys on our team." - Steven Pearl after his team’s win against NC State in their last game. 

"It means a lot you know, obviously we love playing these types of games, and it's extra special when you can bring it home for your home fans. I know our fans yearn for these types of match ups." - Tommy Lloyd on his team’s upcoming game against Auburn.
