00:00Arizona now on the road with a quick turn around heading to Waco tonight.

00:04Basically a pick of here DRS for Arizona visiting Baylor.

00:09How do you see this game playing out between the Wildcats and the Bears?

00:13Hey, take a look at the free throw shooting between these two in a close

00:15game.

00:15Who do you want to lean to?

00:16Well, it's one and two in conference play 79.3% in conference play for

00:21Arizona then Baylor at 79.1%.

00:23So that's where you say, okay, both of these teams going to make their free

00:26throw shots.

00:26Who's actually getting to the free throw line more?

00:29We look at Arizona's defense in conference play been number one in the

00:32conference and not allow you get to the free throw line.

00:34You say why would that be important?

00:36Why just told you they shoot close to 80% as a team talking about Baylor

00:40getting to the free throw line.

00:41Also point distribution for Baylor heading into this from the free throw

00:44line third in conference play almost 22% of their points come from the free

00:48throw line flip it over to the opposite side for Arizona.

00:51I just told you they don't fail.

00:52How about 15% of the points going against the defense going which is 16th

00:56in the conference.

00:57So if I'm at Baylor and I'm like, you know what?

00:59I like to get to the free throw and make a lot of free throws.

01:01I don't think that's going to be there so you can go through and acknowledge

01:03him and the Aubrey Arizona offense is good looking for a bounce back.

01:06But sometimes you just like to pinpoint one spot in this game that can make a

01:09difference on a line at minus one and a half.

01:12I just don't think Baylor is going to get enough free throw attempts here to

01:15use that 80% to their advantage and maybe Arizona uses that in their favor.

01:19I'll take the slight upset just based on the number at plus one and a half

01:23with Arizona.
