After winning the Pac-12 last season, the Arizona Wildcats have quickly put themselves in a position to win the Big 12. Picked to finish fifth in the conference in the preseason Big 12 coaches poll, the Wildcats are 5-0 and all alone in first place after Tuesday night's 81-70 rout of Baylor.

The Wildcats built a 27-point lead and held off the Bears’ furious comeback attempt that whittled the lead down to as little as nine points.

Following a sixth consecutive win, which put Arizona 4-0 in the Big 12 in its first season of play, Tommy Lloyd voiced his displeasure with the most recent performance, that his team needed to be better in order to handle the challenges ahead.
