It’s generally not a good idea to overreact to any kind of data that comes from just the first three games of a 30-plus game season, but it’s hard not to with how the Arizona Wildcats have started.
The offense has been pretty impressive, too.
Arizona’s defense in early wins over NAU, UT-Rio Grande Valley and North Dakota State has been nothing short of spectacular, and some of the numbers are among the best in program history.
The UA (3-0) has held all three opponents to 52 or fewer points, which it last did to start a season in 1949-50 when the highest-scoring team in college basketball averaged 72.
