Selection Sunday is the day when every team hoping to be involved in the tournament hold their breath. A big part of the fun and excitement is seeing which of the bubble teams make it in, but it’s also interesting to see which of the top seeds will have a pretty clear path to the Final Four. It can be argued that the Arizona Wildcats, who were installed as a #2 seed, have one of the potentially easiest paths to the final. They certainly made their opening round game look easy, but they will have a bit of a tougher test on Saturday night in Salt Lake City when they face the Saint Mary’s Gaels. This is a game that Arizona would be expected to win, but the bookies have it reasonably close, installing the Wildcats as a 4-point favorite. I think this one might actually be one of the steals of the second round, at least in terms of covering the spread. Let’s take a closer look at how these two teams got here as well as the latest college basketball spreads.
