After taking two days to reflect on Arizona's skid-snapping win over the Cal Golden Bears, UA head coach Jedd Fisch addressed the Wildcats' first triumph in 763 days — a 20-game streak that stretched across two seasons.
Quarterback Will Plummer exited Saturday's game "about three or four times" for shoulder and hand injuries, and is expected to be limited this week as the Wildcats prepare for the Utah Utes for Senior Day.
Fisch discussed the plan for Plummer this week, Arizona's win over Cal and delivering game balls, among other topics, during his news conference on Monday.

Experiencing fans storming the field
Jedd Fisch says Saturday was the first time he’s experienced fans rush the field. “They deserved it. 763 days, that’s a long time. … As we continue to build this program up, hopefully the fans will be rushing the field for championships rather than just for a win.” pic.twitter.com/G5yxqp0KC7
