While the Arizona Wildcats had a great passing attack in their Week 1 win, their rushing attack was very good as well.
were able to start off their season with an impressive 61-point performance against the New Mexico Lobos.
Week 1 did not disappoint for the Wildcats’ offense, as they totaled 627 yards on their way to the convincing win. In the win, the Wildcats were balanced on offense, but it was the passing offense that received most of the attention. McMillan totaled 10 receptions, 304 receiving yards, and caught all four of Fifita’s touchdowns. The game by McMillan was one of the best we will likely see from a wide receiver all season, as he had more receptions than the rest of his team in the game and obviously more receiving yards.
While the passing attack for Arizona was excellent, the running game was also excellent in the win. The Wildcats totaled 205 rushing yards on 26 total team carries. Jacory Croskey-Merritt led the way for Arizona, as he totaled 106 rushing yards and one rushing touchdown.
