Arizona won its third consecutive game at home, beating UTEP 31-10 on Saturday night to wrap up its nonconference slate. It was another strong defensive effort, while the offense took a little while to get going but still ended up with a season high in yardage and committed just one turnover.
“I thought today was the best team win that I can remember that we’ve had,” Arizona coach Jedd Fisch said afterward. “And now we gotta get to Pac-12 play. We got to up our game. We got to play better, and we got to see what we can do moving forward.
