SAN DIEGO—It’s amazing what you can do with better players.
Arizona’s massive overhaul of the roster produced huge dividends in its collective debut, with the performance of transfers Jayden de Laura and Jacob Cowing particularly incredible in a 38-20 win over San Diego State on Saturday afternoon at brand-new Snapdragon Stadium.
De Laura threw for 299 yards on 22-of-35 passing with four touchdowns—the same number he had for Washington State against the UA last November—and an interception while Cowing caught eight passes for 153 yards and three scores, tying the school single-game record.
