Arizona Football: Khalil Tate gets positive national media attention after big win

After a historic sophomore season in Tucson, Arizona Football starting quarterback Khalil Tate struggled in the first half of this season and for good reason. Fans and local media searched for answers to losses and missed watching their quarterback run the ball. Even though everyone seemed to agree that under Sumlin he should be more of a passing quarterback to be taken seriously, fans and local media still couldn’t resist making more of the situation than was warranted.

It’s Kevin Sumlin’s first season. Khalil Tate was injured early in the season by what seemed to be his Heisman Trophy contender, Houston’s Ed Oliver.
