And so it goes.
The winless Arizona Wildcats are now on a 17-game losing skid, which is the longest active streak in FBS.
Arizona now turns its focus and desperation for a win to the Colorado Buffaloes (1-4; 0-2 Pac-12) in Boulder on Saturday at 12:30 p.m.
South Florida transfer quarterback Jordan McCloud, who started in each of Arizona's only Pac-12 games against Oregon and UCLA, was announced to have a season-ending knee and ankle injury, placing season-opening starter Gunner Cruz back in the driver's seat.
UA head coach Jedd Fisch addressed McCloud's disappointing injury, among other topics, during his news conference Monday.
