At this early point in the 2019 season, the Arizona Wildcats’ record is .500 but its performances have been far from even. The season-opening loss at Hawaii was a mess all over, while last week’s win over NAU didn’t exactly calm fans’ fears after the defense gave up 41 points to an FCS school.
Now comes Texas Tech, an offensive juggernaut that will be Arizona’s biggest test by far. As our Adam Green noted, this game would serve as the tipping point one way or the other for the season since after this it’s nothing but Pac-12 games and most of those will see the Wildcats as underdogs.
