On Saturday, the Arizona Wildcats returned to the game’s land based past, rushing for 506 yards in a convincing 62-24 victory over the Northern Arizona Lumberjacks. While the ‘Cats performance on the ground will excite fans, the lack of a credible aerial attack should be a cause for worry in the Lowell-Stevens facility.
Arizona dominated the Lumberjacks at the line of scrimmage, Wildcat runners ran through wide lanes on their way to sizable gains. The Arizona front was able to climb and engage at the second level, creating opportunities for runners. Four different ‘Cats rushed for more than fifty yards including leading rusher Brandon Dawkins.
