When the Wildcats ran it inside the 10, they got stuffed. When they tried to throw it, the Huskies had the coverage to shut down the pass.
It was a game of cat-and-mouse all night. Outside the red zone, Arizona was the cat and Washington was the mouse. Inside the red zone, the roles were reversed. Washington became a different defensive team inside the 20-yard line. They came with more energy, more focus, and more urgency than the Wildcats did.
The play-calling was questionable in the red zone for Arizona's offense. It seemed that Washington knew exactly what play the Wildcats were running before they snapped the ball.
