The Arizona Wildcats had a difficult time avoiding adversity this season, but they did not have a problem avoiding a so-called “bad loss.”
Arizona finished the regular season 27-4 with its four losses — versus Butler, Gonzaga, Oregon, and UCLA — all being at the hands of teams that finished the season in the top 25.
Aside from the Wildcats’ ability to battle through injuries and suspensions, losing only to those teams is “the other thing” Sean Miller said he is most proud of about his squad.
“We lost to some really quality teams and each game represented different challenges,” he said.
