TUCSON, Ariz. -- Stanley Johnson scored all 18 of his points in the second half, T.J. McConnell added 16 points in a rare display of offensive aggression and No. 10 Arizona rolled over No. 8 Utah 69-51 on Saturday. Arizona (16-2, 4-1 Pac-12) came out shaky at both ends in the Pac-12s first game between Top 10 teams in nearly seven years. The Wildcats rallied behind McConnell, the pass-first point guard who created his own shots while still setting up his teammates. Johnson took over in the second half and the Wildcats shot 49 per cent against one of the nations toughest defensive teams to win their 32nd straight home game. The Wildcats also outworked the Pac-12s best rebounding team, grabbing 21 more than the Utes (14-3, 4-1), including 17 on the offensive glass that led to 18 second-chance points. McConnell had six assists, and Brandon Ashley added 14 points and eight rebounds. Brandon Taylor had 12 points and Jordan Loveridge scored all of his 11 points in the second half for Utah. Coming off victory over Colorado, Arizona coach Sean Miller said the Wildcats would be home underdogs against the up-in-your-face Utes. That wasnt completely true; the Utes were six-point underdogs according to the Glantz-Culver line. Still, Miller had a point. Utah entered McKale Center with a higher ranking and leading the Pac-12. The Utes also were among the national leaders in defensive scoring and shooting percentage, and have the dynamic duo of Delon Wright and Loveridge. Utah sure looked like the better team early, starting with Wrights steal and breakaway dunk on the games opening possession. The Utes jammed up the Wildcats inside and they had no answer, missing seven of their first eight shots while Utah opened with a 10-2 run, with Wright having a hand in all 10 points. The Wildcats clawed back behind their feisty bulldog of point guard, McConnell, who dribbled in and out of traffic to set up himself and his teammates. McConnell had 12 points -- two on a jumper over the 7-foot reach of Jakob Poeltl -- two assists and set up his teammates for five free throws by halftime, helping Arizona build a 31-26 lead after its early funk. Johnson took over in the second half, scoring nine quick points, including a breakaway dunk off a steal. McConnell added in a nifty no-look pass to Dusan Ristic for a layup that put the Wildcats up 46-32. Arizona turned up the defensive pressure on Utah to close out the first half and continued to hound the Utes, making every possession a battle to get a shot off. The Wildcats were particularly effective against Wright, who had three points after his early flurry. TIP INS Utah: The Utes were playing their first matchup between Top 10 teams since losing to Kentucky in the 1998 NCAA championship game. It was their first Top 10 game in conference play since facing New Mexico in the WAC in 1968. Arizona: The McKale Center last hosted two Top 10 teams in 2004. ...
