TUCSON — The Arizona Wildcats defeated Texas Tech on Saturday night in the most unexpected way imaginable.

Arizona played phenomenal defense — after struggling on that side of the ball for most of its first two games. Then the Wildcats ran out the clock in a manner that would have made Dick Tomey proud.

The Cats defeated the Red Raiders 28-14 in front of an announced of 37,207 at Arizona Stadium. It was Arizona’s first non-conference game – and first non-conference win – over a Power Five opponent since 2012.
