The Star asks five burning questions regarding the Arizona football program after the Wildcats finish 5-7.
A season after finishing 1-11 and last place in the Pac-12, the UA in Year 2 of the Jedd Fisch era went 5-7, knocked off a ranked opponent in 12th-ranked UCLA , and ended a five-game losing skid to rival Arizona State on Friday in a 38-35 win.
As the Wildcats officially turn the page to 2023, here are five burning questions we have for Arizona: Arizona receiver Tetairoa McMillan, who is tied for most receiving touchdowns in the Pac-12, is in contention to win Pac-12 Offensive Freshman of the Year, but running backs Damien Martinez and Jaydn Ott , who rushed for 274 yards and three touchdowns against Arizona, also have cases to win the award.
Cowing could return to the Wildcats, but will likely become the first Arizona wide receiver drafted since Criner in 2012. Manu will return at linebacker, but losing sixth-year senior Roberts, along with limited experience in Malik Reed — who didn’t play a defensive snap this season — Anthony Solomon, Cage and Ammon Allen, Arizona is vulnerable at linebacker.
