The Arizona Wildcats are set to play a football game for the first time in two weeks, when the UA faces the UCLA Bruins Saturday night at Arizona Stadium.
Arizona hopes to snap a 16-game losing streak and pick up the first win of the Jedd Fisch era, however UCLA, which is coming off a loss to Arizona State that could potentially determine the Pac-12 South race, enters Saturday's contest as 16-point favorites.
Fisch held his second press conference of the week before Arizona-UCLA on Thursday. Here are the best clips:
