Khalil Tate said it best following Arizona’s 28-23 loss to BYU Saturday night.
“Back to the drawing boards,” he said.
The Wildcats lost their first home opener in 18 years, marring what should have been an exciting kickoff to the Kevin Sumlin era.
There was plenty of blame to go around.
Tate completed 17 of 34 passes for 197 yards and two touchdowns, but ran for only 14 yards on eight attempts. The rest of coordinator Noel Mazzone’s offense showed growing pains, too, which may be understandable given there are still 11 regular-season games to be played.
