The Surprising Twist That Could Make Caleb Love and Arizona the Dark Horses No One Sees Coming
February’s been quite the tempest for the Arizona Wildcats—three wins, then three losses out of four games, dropping them from the AP top 15 down to No. 22. At a glance, it might look like the Wildcats’ ship is taking on water, but here’s the twist: our TRACR model still sees them sailing among the elite. So, what gives? Is this just a mid-season slump, or are we witnessing a team that has its sights set on something bigger despite the bumps? The truth is, setbacks have been defensible—close calls, tough breaks, the usual drama that makes college basketball so addictive. And if you peer beneath the surface, there’s a Jason Bourne-like potential in this squad waiting to resurface—hinging largely on the resurgence of Caleb Love, whose form could tip the scales as the tournament looms. Can Love reclaim his preseason All-American promise? If so, don’t count the Wildcats out just yet. Otherwise, we might be watching a fascinating “what could have been” story unfold. Intrigued?
Arizona fell in the standings after three losses in four games. But our TRACR model thinks the Wildcats are still an elite team.
