Arizona Basketball Moving Up in New Bracketology

Selection Sunday is just two days away and the latest Bracketology from Joe Lunardi has Arizona moving up as the Wildcats get set to play in the Big 12 Tournament semifinals vs. Texas Tech on Friday night.

Arizona’s rise comes on the heels of an 88-77 win over Kansas on Thursday. The Wildcats are now up to a four-seed and are projected to face No. 13 Lipscomb in the opening round.

According to Lunardi, Arizona would be in the South Regional and would go to Seattle, Washington for their first two round games, and if they advance to the Sweet 16, would play in Atlanta, Georgia for the Regional semifinals and finals.

Lunardi has the Top 4 seeds in the South as: No. 1 Auburn, No. 2 Michigan State, No. 3 Texas A&M, and No. 4 Arizona.

Meantime, Lunardi has eight Big 12 teams in his latest Bracketology for Friday, March 14th, 2025.
