Arizona Wildcats coach Kevin Sumlin wasn’t in the best of moods on Monday when he had his weekly press conference, and understandably so.
His team was still not that far removed from a demoralizing 51-27 home loss to Washington, one in which it was outscored 38-10 in the second half to end a three-game win streak. Now at 4-2 overall and 2-1 in the Pac-12, the Wildcats are in a four-way tie for first along with ASU, Utah and their next opponent, USC, whom they face Saturday night in Los Angeles.
That game will serve as a homecoming of sorts for many UA players who hail from the LA area.
