Arizona routs Utah to get off to best Pac-12 start in program history

Slow starts have been a problem for the Arizona Wildcats this season, but they wasted no time dispatching the Utah Utes on Sunday.

Arizona grabbed a double-digit lead in the first quarter and never looked back in a 77-60 win in Salt Lake City.

It’s the first time in program history the Wildcats have swept the Mountain schools on the road and also the first time they have started 5-0 in Pac-12 play.

After leaning heavily on Aari McDonald in Friday’s nail-biter at Colorado, the Wildcats used a balanced effort to down the Utes.
