This is just based on how they looked in their exhibition versus SDSU. They only have one actual big man (Krivas), and many of the other teams ranked in the top 10 this year (Duke, UConn, Illinois) have more size. If Arizona had a bunch of experienced, talented guards, that would be one thing, but they don't. It's not that I have THAT much confidence in our own guards, but I still think they're better than Arizona's. And I like our frontcourt more than theirs.
I do think Tommy Lloyd is a better coach than Cronin. But then, that's not saying very much. There are dozens of coaches better than Cronin. So we'll have to see how big a factor coaching is in that game.
But again, given my initial impressions of Arizona, we should win that game.
