The Wildcats are in rebound mode after a rough pre-holiday loss to Ohio State (85-65) on its home floor. They return from a 10-day break as 25.5-point favorites in a likely tune-up game for a challenging schedule ahead, which features seven ranked teams in a span of nine games.
The Bears carry a 7-4 record into a tough road environment, just as they did in their last matchup on the road against the 8th-ranked Kansas Jayhawks. Brown struggled to find shots in that loss and shot just 26.7% from the floor, with leading scorer Kino Lilly Jr. netting 18 points on 7 of 21 shooting.
