Arizona is off to its best start since 2019, when a 4-game win streak got the Wildcats to 4-1 ahead of a big showdown at home against Washington. They would lose that game, and the next 19, including another home defeat to the Huskies.
Only two UA players who participated in that 2019 game are still on the roster, and Washington has changed coaches twice since then. The current coach, Kalen DeBoer, has the Huskies (4-0, 1-0 Pac-12) at No. 7 in the country, making them the highest-ranked opponent to come to Arizona Stadium since 2013.
