Halftime Report
A win for Arizona would push their record over .500, and after one quarter of play they've put themselves in a good position to make it happen. They have a bit of a cushion as they currently lead Canisius 52-30.
If Arizona keeps playing like this they'll be starting off their season with a 'W'. On the other hand, Canisius will be starting their season off on the wrong foot unless they turn things around (and fast).

Looking ahead, the game looks promising for Arizona, as the team is favored by a full 32.5 points. They finished last season with a stellar 21-10 record against the spread, so they might be worth a quick bet.
Arizona ought to be happy about their advantage in the spread: the team was a solid 22-6 when favored last season. A bettor who placed a $100 dollar bet on them to lose every one of the 31 games they played last year would have netted $980.68. Sadly, Canisius will open their season as the underdog, and the team was 4-14 as such last year.
