Football defense puts on Superman cape with two touchdowns vs Cal

Sometimes, the best offense is a good defense. Five tackles for a loss, four takeaways, two sacks, and mostly importantly, two touchdowns.

Quite the performance for the Wildcat defense on Saturday night as they provided the spark Arizona needed to come away with a 24-17 victory over the Golden Bears.

“That was really a gutty performance,” Sumlin said of his defense. “That’s two weeks in a row in the second half where the guys have played really, really, well.”

Last week’s second half comeback against USC feel short, but this time around the Wildcats were able to overcome a four-point deficit after 20 minutes of play and get their third win of the season.
