Arizona vs Old Dominion Prediction

I’m on Arizona here. I just don’t know how Old Dominion will respond after a heartbreaking loss to the season. If it was a lesser opponent I could see a bounce back performance to get the bad taste out of their mouths, but honestly, against Arizona, I’m just envisioning more frustration and disappointment. The Wildcats are loaded from a talent perspective, and I just don’t see Old Dominion hanging around for a full 40 minutes. Give me Arizona.
