Watch: Wildcats remember QB Khalil Tate's historic effort, preview Friday night's game

Wildcats host Colorado on short turnaround after Oregon upset

Fresh off an upset over Oregon, the Arizona Wildcats host Colorado on a short week Friday night — and they'll do it with some fond memories.

Khalil Tate memorably came off the bench to rush for an FBS quarterback record 327 yards during the Wildcats' 45-42 win in Boulder last year. Tate's senior receivers Shun Brown and Shawn Poindexter were on the field for the quarterback's breakout game, and on Tuesday recalled some of the top plays and on-field moments from that October night a season ago.

Brown and Poindexter were joined by junior safety Tristan Cooper to help preview this week's matchup, when the Wildcats will look to ride their newfound momentum to another Pac-12 win.
