Both teams have a lot riding on this game, with many questions to be answered. Who will take command early? Will Arizona continue its dominance on offense? Can the Arizona defense limit the Huskies’ offense?

Neither team is ranked heading into tonight’s match-up, but Arizona is nonetheless atop the Pac-12 South at 2-0 and has more to lose in this one. The Huskies are 1-2 in the Pac-12 North and are looking to get back into contention and position themselves to be bowl eligible and maybe more!

31. 835. Prediction. 35. 818

"“This will undoubtedly be Arizona’s toughest test thus far. Really this game comes down to how well Arizona’s defense can play, and whether or not Khalil Tate and Arizona will be able to put up enough points against a tough and feisty defense. While I do have confidence Arizona could potentially pull the upset in this one, it is rare to see a Chris Petersen coached team lose focus too often into a season, especially in back-to-back games. Arizona keeps it close, but comes up short in the end.”"

Prediction. 30. 818. 31. 835

"“I think the crowd is going to rock today, the team is playing better and better every week. The QB is even more healthy, no major injuries – and they know how important this win is – so I think they ride the high and I think Tate switches it up in this game”"

David Rosen

818. 31. 835. Prediction. 24

"“Arizona will use it’s confidence, riding a 4 game win streak, and pull off the upset in front of a packed house inside Arizona Stadium. Defense will need to step up big time, and not have any bad penalties and play smart. On offense, same thing. Tate and company will nee to continue to put up big yards and not let the foot off the pedal. In the end, Arizona will find a way to win this one 31-24!”"

Jordan Cuda

818. 38. 835. Prediction. 30

"“Arizona will feed off the momentum of a four game winning streak and a sell out crowd at Arizona Stadium. I expect Arizona football to come out firing on all cylinders as adrenaline will be flowing through all the players wearing the “A” on their helmets. Adrenaline will allow players with bumps and bruises to play at the highest level such as Khalil Tate and J.J. Taylor. The dawgs from UW will not go down without a fight as their seasons hangs in the balance. This game will come down to the wire but will end with the Wildcats singing the fight song in the locker room after a humungous win”."
