No one gives the Arizona Wildcats much of a chance this season, and no one understands why better than UA coach Rich Rodriguez.
He understands and accepts the reality of Arizona’s situation: The Wildcats went 3-9 last season, continuing their downward trajectory from the 10-4 peak of 2014. They are predicted by most to finish last again in the Pac-12 South. If that happens for a second straight season, Rodriguez could be out of a job.
“I have more confidence in us than everybody else does, and we have more confidence in ourselves,” Rodriguez said during training camp.
