No official statistics were tabulated Saturday, when the Arizona Wildcats conducted their spring football game at Arizona Stadium. But I kept a play-by-play, and I was able to compile some notable numbers.
Although these stats are unofficial, they provide a snapshot of who stood out during the scrimmage. Some disclaimers: Not every player is listed, and I did not keep track of tackles.

Notes: Although the offense often stalled in the red zone, Tate had a pretty good day, completing 64.3 percent of his passes. … Why was Kevin Sumlin so pleased with the running backs? “Backups” Tilford, Leon and Mariscal combined for 301 yards on 41 carries (7.3 ypc). … The running backs combined for 10 receptions. UA backs caught 13 passes all of last season. … Harris had a more productive game than I originally thought; he’s one to watch in training camp.
