Comment: The good news — this can’t possibly go worse than last year’s 69-7 humiliation in Pullman. The bad news – QB Luke Falk is back. His numbers in two games against the UA are comical: 79 of 97 (81.4 percent) for 825 yards with nine touchdowns and zero interceptions. The Wildcats might try hitting him a time or two in Round 3. 

Comment: This is where the roughest part of Arizona’s schedule begins – the first of three November road games to close the season. The Trojans lose a ton of talent but return Sam Darnold, who might be the best quarterback in the country. Last year’s 48-14 USC victory snapped a string of nine consecutive one-score games in the series. 

Comment: This looks like the most winnable game of the month — and it might be a game the Wildcats have to win to ensure bowl eligibility. It’s possible Oregon State — which won its final two games, beating Arizona and Oregon — will be this year’s Colorado. But that seems premature. 

Comment: This isn’t a traditional rivalry by any means, but there’s unquestionably some rancor between the schools after Oregon poached two of Arizona’s 2017 commits, including QB Braxton Burmeister. Remember the last time the Wildcats visited Eugene? Things have changed dramatically since, on both sides. 

Comment: Will RichRod and Todd Graham both be coaching for their jobs? Will both schools need to win to reach bowl games? Will ASU’s defense show up? Who will Arizona’s quarterback be by season’s end? So many questions. Far too much time to ponder them.
