If you have any doubts about Arizona, then you must not be paying attention to the 2025-26 season. Along with being undefeated, the Wildcats have taken down five ranked opponents, starting with a 93-87 win over then-No. 3 Florida in the season opener, followed soon after by a four-point win over then-No. 15 UCLA (69-65) and then-No. 3 UConn (71-67). They got conference play underway last weekend with a 97-78 win over Utah. As for Kansas State, the Wildcats have not fared nearly as well, losing four in a row at one stretch (Nebraska, Indiana, Bowling Green, and Seton Hall). They bounced back and won the last four games of their non-conference slate, but lost their conference opener last weekend, 83-73 to BYU.
Arizona opened the season as a potential contender with +2500 odds to win the national championship; they are now +600, second only to Michigan.

Our Arizona vs Kansas State Wildcats Prediction
Arizona will win this one, but there is no value in the moneyline (-4000), and large spreads (-18.5) always make me apprehensive (will the loser catch up too much in garbage time?). However, K-State does not have a defense capable of slowing the Wildcats down. Look for Arizona to have a big night (90-100+ points), leaving Kansas State to score just enough for the final score to go OVER the TOTAL.
Our K-State vs. Arizona Pick: OVER 169.5
