What Arizona players are saying about bye week, NAU game

The Arizona Wildcats came up one yard short in their season opening loss against Hawaii, and have now had over a week to dwell on the heartbreaking defeat after getting a bye during the first full weekend of college football.

Despite the late comeback attempt that culminated in Khalil Tate being brought down at the goal line for what would have been a game-tying touchdown on the last play of the game, the UA looked mostly disappointing in the loss to the Rainbow Warriors and will now have to improve, particularly on defense, as they get set for what now has to be a confidence building game against Northern Arizona on Saturday night.
