The Arizona Wildcats are good, but they have been amazing on home court as they are currently riding a 44-game winning streak at the McKale Center. The Wildcats will be hosting the Mizzou Tigers Sunday, a team that has not won a true road game since February 2014.
- Mizzou has lost eight consecutive games against ranked teams by an average margin of 19.5 points.
- Arizona is 2-4 ATS in their last six home games.
- Mizzou is 5-15-1 ATS in their last 22 road games.
Arizona is coming off a win that saw freshman Allonzo Trier put on a breakthrough performance. The Seattle-native scored 27 points and shot 80 percent from the field in an 85-72 win over Fresno State. The Wildcats may be undefeated, but the final scores have not inspired a lot of confidence, with three of their last four wins coming by single-digits.
Mizzou enters this game riding a three-game winning streak on the back of two freshmen. The Wildcats top two scorers this season are Kevin Puryear (14.1) and Terrence Phillips (10.0) who are both in their first season in college.
