Arizona can't buy a bucket & go down to USC 80-57

As their starting center sat out with a sore back, the Arizona Wildcats were trounced by the USC Trojans 80-57 on Thursday night in Los Angeles.

The Wildcats (14-6, 5-2 Pac-12) regressed to their baffled-by-a-zone ways, turning in their worst offensive performance of the season. USC's long, athletic defense held UA to a season-worst 28 percent shooting and a putrid 5-for-25 mark from 3.

That was the worst D-1 game I've ever watched.

The only competent player on the floor was Rakocevic. 

If USC played anybody else last night, they would have lost by 20.

Without Jeter we were helpless . Terrible play. At the game and it was embarrassing.
