Arizona vs. Texas A&M

Arizona Wildcats forward Jake DesJardins (55) and the rest of the Arizona bench reacts to a dunk made by Arizona Wildcats guard Kobi Simmons (2) in the second half during a game at the Toyota Center in Houston, Texas on Saturday, Dec. 17, 2016. Arizona won 67-63. Mamta Popat / Arizona Daily Star

Because the Wildcats have had two straight 10 a.m. Saturday tipoffs, the Wildcats have ditched the usual pregame fare of pasta and chicken for them.

On Saturday, the Wildcats arose in time for a 6:30 a.m. (Arizona time) brunch buffet of potatoes, sausage, bacon and fruit, along with stations for customized smoothies and omelets of their choice.

So far, the Wildcats are 2-0 right after breakfast, having also beaten Missouri with the exact same schedule a week earlier. Β
