These are two of the highest-rated teams in KenPom history, and my Michigan vs. Arizona predictions expect the Wildcats to punch their ticket to the national title game for the first time since 2001. Read on to find out why in my March Madness picks for April 4.

Michigan vs Arizona prediction Michigan vs Arizona best bet: Arizona moneyline (+105) Both teams have terrific bigs and love to attack inside. However, they also defend at an elite level on the interior, so that matchup looks like a wash. This will come down to perimeter play, and the Wildcats are more comfortable in the midrange, and boast the superior backcourt with Jaden Bradley and Brayden Burries.

They also do a better job taking care of the ball and controlling the offensive glass, while Michigan has looked shaky in those areas against top-tier opponents. Those extra chances will make a difference in a razor-close contest. COVERS INTEL: Arizona is 30th in the country in extra scoring chances per game (+3.
