Arizona is coming into this game with a 15-6 record this season and they are 9-1 in the conference. Arizona had a very rocky start to the season with 5 losses coming prior to conference play, but they have been on fire in the Big 12 this year. They have won their last 4 straight as well as 11 of their last 12 games and they are currently sitting right near the top of the conference. Their only loss in the conference came on the road against a very good Texas Tech team, but they lost that game by 16 points and it is the only road game this season that they had to deal with some altitude in. Now they are going up against a BYU team that is 15-6 this season as well as 6-4 in the conference, and they play in Provo which is an even higher elevation. BYU has been playing very well in their recent games too, winning their last 4 straight as well as 5 of their last 6 games. They have also been playing very well at home this season as they have won their last 3 straight there as well as 11 of their 12 home games, winning 9 of those games by 10+ points as well. Their only loss at home this season came by 5 points against Texas Tech who has been one of the better teams in the conference this year and is also more conditioned to playing in the altitude. Arizona has been on fire in the conference, but this is a bad spot for them on the road against a BYU team that has also been heating up recently and has been dominant at home all season. BYU will cover the spread in this game.
