The Colorado Buffaloes have been a great surprise this season, but their next challenge is the biggest one this season as they visit the unbeaten and number one team in the Nation, Arizona Wildcats, this Thursday at the McKale Center.

Colorado is 15-4 this season, with a 4-2 record against Pac-12 opponents; they base their game in second changes with 39.2 rebounds per game, 35th best in the nation.

The Buffaloes two best scorers are guard Spencer Dinwiddie and forward Josh Scott, both averaging above 14 points per game.

Colorado beat USC 83-62 in their last game; the victory cut a two game losing streak.

Arizona is 18-0 and beat the Arizona State Sun Devils 91-68 last weekend.

“I feel we have a confident team, but in a good way,” Arizona coach Sean Miller said. “A lot of players who were part of a big winning streak last year saw how quickly it can leave you if you don’t continue to work hard and get better. I believe the mission of this year’s team is to try to be a team that really practices and shows up. Leave one game behind and quickly move to the next. So far, so good.”

Arizona is a 14 point favorite over Colorado in the NCAA Basketball odds for Thursday.

Colorado is 2-6 ATS in its last 8 games on the road, and 1-4 SU in its last 5 games when playing on the road against Arizona.
