It wasn't pretty, but a win is a win.
In Arizona's case, the Wildcats hadn't experienced winning a football game since Oct. 5, 2019, a stretch of 20 games, until Saturday afternoon, when the UA outlasted the Cal Golden Bears 10-3. Saturday also marked the first win of the Jedd Fisch era.
Here's what Fisch said following Arizona's win:

Being on the other end of an ugly game
Jedd Fisch says Arizona’s 10-3 win over Cal felt similarly to the 13-3 Rams-Patriots Super Bowl, when Fisch was as assistant for L.A.Except this game resulted in a win for Fisch. “That was quite the win. … It’s one of those weird games.” pic.twitter.com/nfDLkZANJI
