Series history The rivalry dates from the first games in 1923, but the true intensity of the series would not occur until the addition of Arizona to the Pac-10 in 1978. Since becoming conference foes, the game is played typically twice per season. The Wildcats and Bruins have faced off 10 times in conference tournament games.

The rivalry did not gather steam until Lute Olson's arrival in 1984, who compiled a 28–23 record against the Bruins during his tenure as Arizona's head coach. Since then, the two schools competed for the Pac-10 (now Pac-12) Championship every year, with the two teams winn ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
