QB Jayden de Laura and the Wildcats passing attack struggled last week, but de Laura has bounced back every time he’s had an off game this year.
“We weren't very good in any area in the passing game,” the Arizona coach said.
Arizona had three dropped passes, according to Pro Football Focus. The first pass of the game, a slightly high seam pass to tight end Tanner McLachlan, also could have been ruled a drop. “I was about ready to lose my mind,” Fisch said. “We put the ball on the ground seven times, the quarterback and wide receiver position, Jacob and Jayden particularly. That's not OK. They know that.
De Laura has shown the ability to bounce back this season. After he threw three interceptions against MSU, he completed 71.4% of his passes without a pick the following week against North Dakota State. After he threw two interceptions at Cal, he passed for 484 yards and six touchdowns against Colorado.
“We'll know more in the next few days,” said Fisch, whose teams visits UCLA on Saturday. “Don't know yet exactly if he’ll be good to go or not. We'll see Tuesday if he's going to be limited or not. I’ll know better tomorrow morning after we get another day of treatment in.” Civic engagementIn 2020, Election Day was a mandatory day off for all NCAA Division I student-athletes. That’s no longer the case.
