Arizona football notebook: Preparing for Washington’s air assault, fixing the 1st quarter offense, Tanner McLachlan’s hurdle instincts

Arizona has allowed 64 points over the first four games of the 2023 season. A year ago at this time, it had yielded 136, including 49 at Cal to open Pac-12 play.

But the Wildcats have yet to face a truly good offense. That will change on Saturday night when 7th-ranked Washington comes to Arizona Stadium.

The Huskies (4-0, 1-0 Pac-12) are scoring 49.8 points per game, third-best in FBS, and rank first nationally in passing (467.3 yards per game) and total offense (593.3). They also lead the country in plays of 20- (39) or 30-plus (23) yards and are second in red zone touchdowns (20).
