Nick Johnson scored 22 points, Kaleb Tarczewski added 16 and No. 3 Arizona quickly turned its rematch with California into an 87-59 rout Wednesday night at Tucson.

Cal won the first meeting 60-58 on a last-second jumper by Justin Cobbs that sent the students pouring onto the court.

Arizona ran away from the Bears early in the rematch, using a big first-half run and 50% shooting to prevent the season sweep.

T.J. McConnell had 13 points and six assists, and Rondae Hollis-Jefferson provided a lift off the bench with 12 points and 10 rebounds.

Johnson also had seven rebounds and five assists after struggling the first game against the Bears.

Cal struggled at times against Arizona's defensive pressure and had little chance of stopping the Wildcats at the other end to lose for the 17th time in 19 games at McKale Center.

Cobbs led the Bears with 12 points.

Arizona wanted a little revenge after what happened in the first meeting against Cal.

The Wildcats entered the Feb. 1 game with the No. 1 ranking and a school-record 21-game winning streak. They left Berkeley with their first loss of the season — thanks to Cobbs' stepback jumper with 0.9 seconds left — and with forward Brandon Ashley in a walking boot after he injured his right foot going up for a rebound in the first half.

Ashley is done for the season, but Arizona has found ways to win without him, picking up three victories in four games.

at Arizona State 76, Stanford 64: Jahii Carson scored 26 points — 23 in the second half — and the Sun Devils held on in the second half to end the Cardinal's winning streak at three games.

With the win, the Sun Devils move into a four-way tie for third place in the Pac-12 with three games to play. California, Stanford, Colorado and the Sun Devils are all 9-6 in conference play.

Jermaine Marshall added 16 points, including 12 during a key 10-minute stretch of the first half, as Arizona State opened up a 10-point lead and never looked back.

Anthony Brown led Stanford with 21 points and Chasson Randle made six of nine shots in the first half, but only scored two points in the second half, finishing with 17 points before fouling out with 7:11 left.

Arizona State bounced back from back-to-back losses after upsetting then-No. 2 Arizona on Feb. 14.
