Arizona football: Six seniors that stood out against ASU

Arizona collapsed with its postseason hopes on the line. The Wildcats fell 41-40 to their in-state rivals on Saturday despite holding a nineteen-point lead entering the fourth quarter.

The 2018 Territorial Cup was earned by the school from up north, but the ‘Cats seniors did their best to bring the nation’s longest-standing rivalry trophy back to Tucson. Josh Pollack’s last second kick may have sailed wide right, but the blame in this game lands elsewhere.
