The Washington State Cougars look to stay atop the Pac-12 North standings when they face the Arizona Wildcats in Tuscon on Saturday night. This matchup takes on much more importance than it appeared it would at the start of the season, or even a few weeks ago, as both teams still control their own destinies for the conference title.
Arizona has made a surprise three-game run of victories on the back of quarterback Khalil Tate, who came in against Colorado for an injured Brandon Dawkins and promptly set the NCAA record for rushing yards in a game for a quarterback.
