Football Practice Report: Nov. 13

Venue: Moshofsky Center
Format: Full pads

The zone-read option took the Pac-12 by storm when the Ducks began running it a decade or so ago. Lately, the Air Raid has been embraced around the conference, notably by Washington State and USC.

On Saturday, the UO defense will contend with both systems. Arizona employs a little of each, and preparations for Oregon are further complicated by the fact the Wildcats play two quarterbacks, and adjust their scheme accordingly.

Back for Arizona is quarterback Khalil Tate, whose athleticism can cause fits but who also threw for three touchdowns as the Wildcats beat Oregon last season.
