The Arizona Wildcats’ first spring under Kevin Sumlin came to an end Saturday, and the defense again got the better of the offense.
The defense forced five turnovers in front of about 5,000 fans at the UA spring game at Arizona Stadium. Afterward, Sumlin said the linebackers had stood out more than any other position group throughout spring camp.
But Sumlin saw signs of hope on the other side of the ball.
He praised the work of the running backs, whose ranks included some surprise standouts. And he really liked that the offense scored on its first possession of the second half after trailing at halftime 42-16.
