Arizona football just lost a game to USC on Saturday 48-14, but have they lost their desire to win? Here are three key takeaways from Coach Rich Rodriguez‘s post-game press conference.
Seventeen-year-old Arizona Football quarterback Khalil Tate took the field as one of the youngest quarterbacks to start a game. Hopes were high all around, but starting a very young quarterback can’t make up for losing DB Cody Ippolito, multiple running backs, Isaiah Hayes to a concussion and others who to injury or who have recently just come back from injury.

The Arizona Football team has lost four games in a row, and it hasn’t been pretty. Rich Rod addressed fans woes and more after the loss to the Trojans.
You know someone was going to ask Rich Rod about the losses and the fans being upset, that person was a Scott Bordow from the AZCentral.com. Bordow was stunned at the empty seats in the fourth quarter. He was not sitting in the sun obviously. And frankly, the students couldn’t bear to watch the dumpster fire going on, it hurts them too.
Rich, fresh off a fourth loss in a row, took it personally and responded, “What do you want me to say?” Duh! Of course, the fans are upset, so is the team and the coaches! You would be pissed off if he took this losing trend lightly. Rodriguez is a ‘the buck stops here’ type of boss and that is commendable.
