National Novel Writing Month is in full swing GREG GONZALES

No one lacks a story to tell, whether or not the story is true. This month, everyone has a chance to let their inner writer out.

National Novel Writing Month, called “NaNoWriMo” by coordinators and participants, offers everyone a reason to write: Put together a 50,000-word novel before Nov. 30 at midnight. The prize: The title of novelist and the coordinators will print and bind a copy of the completed work. It’s simple, but the idea has spread to hundreds of thousands of people nationwide.

NaNoWriMo began in July of 1999 when a group of 21 “twenty-somethings” in the San Francisco Bay area challenged themselves with the same idea, according to the group’s website.

The site compares the original event to starting a band, with reasons like “nothing better to do,” and getting more dates.

The motives vary, but the principle is just about the same, even 13 years later. Though the ultimate goal is to reach the 50,000 words mark, the true merit in this literary frenzy is the finished product and getting to know oneself as a writer.

“I’ve been wanting to write a novel for a long time and I thought this was a good opportunity for that little push to work on it,” said Hope

Anderson, a Ph.D. candidate studying second language acquisition and teaching. This is Anderson’s first time participating.

“It’s about trying something new … for people who have wanted to [write a novel] who haven’t had the push to do it before,” she said.

Anderson said she plans to make a novel out of an idea she’s had in mind since she was 14, and she’s already armed with characters and potential plot lines. She said she’s having trouble with her plot, but the already tight-knit community gives her all the help she needs.

“The local group has a lot of fun,” she said.

“You really don’t feel like you’re on your own.”

Each city has multiple groups that meet in cafes and restaurants, where participants can bounce ideas off each other and help with writing techniques. And because NaNoWriMo is centered on the website, where all of the novels are entered for an accurate word count, the contestants don’t even need to leave the comfort of their homes for advice.

With more than 250,000 participants last year, 13 years of organized events and a website community where every single writer can connect, you’d be hard-pressed to feel isolated in NaNoWriMo. Last year more than 30,000 participants managed to reach the 50,000-word hall of fame.

This year, so can you.

TIME TO GET FUZZY: No-shave November is finally here

O

GREG GONZALES

ctober is over now, and so begins the dreaded No-Shave November. Well, it could be dreaded if participants don’t keep clean.

If you don’t know what it is, No-Shave November is exactly what it sounds like: don’t shave for the whole month of November, no matter how bad it might look.

“I have done it a few times and am contemplating doing it again this year,” said Alex Lopez, an environmental sciences senior. “Your face keeps warm, you save money on shaving equipment and the ladies love the rugged lumberjack look.”

But both Lopez and Max Roth, an electrical engineering senior, agree that itchiness is the worst problem with No-Shave November.

Both veterans of the tradition, they contend that it’s something men should try at least once.

“I’ve always seen it as an excuse for men when they’re in that awkward phase of growing a beard,” said Roth.

There wasn’t a consensus, though, on whether or not women should participate.

“Women shouldn’t ever really want to have long leg hair,” said Roth. “… if it’s under the pants and she’s not planning on getting any, go for it.”

Sarah Laus, an accounting sophomore, didn’t think girls should participate, either.

“If we didn’t live in Arizona, it’d work out,” she said. “But since we do, I think girls should shave.”

Overall, men and women both participate, and sometimes it’s not just for the fun of it.

Heather Devers, a natural resources junior, said she would only use body hair for revenge if she had a boyfriend who participated.

“Other than that, I rather enjoy my soft and smooth body parts,” said Devers. But should the aforementioned scenario take place, she said, “I would shave nothing.”

If you participate this year, just keep in mind that not everyone looks good with facial hair or body hair.

“As long as no neck-beards are to be grown, I’m fine with it,” said Devers. “There is nothing OK with just being able to grow hair on your neck. Either you are able to grow all out, or you shouldn’t be growing at all.”

Italian honorary to hold poetry reading JASON KRELL

Gamma Kappa Alpha, a national Italian honorary society, is holding a poetry reading, translated from Italian by a faculty member and student, to show students a side of World War II that is rarely talked about.

Beppe Cavatorta, an associate professor in Italian and director of the Basic Italian Language program, and Brenna Ward, a senior studying Italian, classics and music, began translating Emilio Zucchi’s “Le midolla del male” — “The marrow of evil” — last semester after Ward wanted to be more involved in a class of Cavatorta’s that she was auditing, according to Cavatorta.

The class, taught in the spring of 2012, concerned the resistance war in Italy during World War II, and “The

marrow of evil” was the perfect poem to translate as a project outside of class, Cavatorta said, adding that it deals with one of the most famous fascist torturers and a partisan woman who was tortured and killed.

The victim, Anna Maria Enriques Agnoletti, was tortured by Pietro Koch, who was notorious for his antipartisan activity and was later convicted and executed by the Allied High Court for his violent acts during the war. According to Cavatorta, “The marrow of evil” follows Koch and Enriques until the former’s eventual execution.

“You have a window open on Italian culture, true literature in this case – Italian poetry – but also on a historical event,” Cavatorta said of the poem.

“It was very important … and an aspect that not everybody knows about.”

He also added that while the poem may deal with

somber topics, it is important to remember along with other tragic events during the war, such as the Holocaust.

“When you have something that is totally atrocious happening, to talk about it is a good way not to forget,” Cavatorta said. “I think this is the lesson that in many cases is given to us by scholars about the Holocaust, and is actually relevant to the Holocaust as well, because Maria Enriques … was actually a Jew, that during the year decided to convert to the Catholic religion in order to avoid the persecution that unfortunately she was not able to avoid.”

There is a positive message at the end of the poem, Cavatorta said, reminding readers that there is good in everyone. “[In] the last stanzas, there is some hope,” he said. “Because we have the voice of Maria

poetry, 3

3 said. “It’s a good example to show that it’s possible to have an active collaboration between an undergrad student and a FROM PAGE 2 professor. You don’t necessarily need to be a Enriques in this last part, praying that maybe graduate student, but you can do something there was a spark of love in something that if you have the passion, the willingness to [Koch] actually did.” work.”

Aside from what students can learn from the poem, Cavatorta said he also hopes the event serves as an example of what undergraduates IF YOU GO are capable of.

Copper room of the Student Union “[The event] is a little bit different because Memorial Center on Friday from 5 p.m. to it’s open to the whole campus, and it’s also 7 p.m. Refreshments will be served. sponsored by a University of Arizona grant, a student-faculty interaction grant,” Cavatorta

The great Tucson pho shootout

VS JORDin o’connor/arizona Daily Wildcat

T

HAYDEN JORDE

here’s a wide array of restaurants near campus with food from around the world, but when it comes to Vietnamese the choices are limited.

The two restaurants located closest to the UA for students who are hankering for a steamy bowl of pho are Miss Saigon, located on the corner of Campbell Avenue and Speedway Boulevard, and Saigon Pho, just off of University Boulevard.

Miss Saigon and Saigon Pho serve similar dishes, are about equidistant from the heart of campus and cost almost the same amount to eat at.

But where should you spend your

Lovin’ Spoonfuls: a vegetarian’s delight

money? Both have strengths and weaknesses but there can only be one victor.

Saigon Pho is a convenient restaurant to grab a bite to eat at while window-shopping on University. The portions at Saigon Pho are large and very filling, and for only 74 cents more than a dish at Miss Saigon, a diner can get three veggie spring rolls served with a delicious peanut sauce, rather than the two much smaller veggie rolls that Miss Saigon offers.

However, the spring rolls at Miss Saigon hold together better, and important factor for an enjoyable experience.

Entrees at Saigon Pho costs between $5.99 and $9.99, which is very similar to the pricing at Miss

Saigon. Saigon Pho, however, offers a larger selection of veggie and real meats than Miss Saigon, including frog and buffalo curries. The size of the menu at Saigon Pho is a bit intimidating though, as it features more than 60 items.

The selection of Vietnamese baguettes is more extensive than that offered at Miss Saigon, too, but Miss Saigon wins when it comes to flavor.

As for the rest of the food at the less-crowded Saigon Pho, it can only be described as decent. On the up side, you don’t have to wait for a table like on occasion at Miss Saigon, but one has to wonder why Saigon Pho isn’t usually very crowded.

The answer is in the pho. The

chicken pho broth at Saigon Pho tastes a bit too much like broth that could be found in a bowl of canned chicken noodle soup. This can be corrected by adding either hoisin or sriracha sauce, but Saigon Pho’s pho lacks the complexity and subtleness one can find at Miss Saigon.

Miss Saigon’s fried tofu, which can be served in pho, is far superior to that of Saigon Pho, but not because of its flavor. At Miss Saigon the fried tofu comes out crispy, while not compromising the spongy texture one expects. Saigon Pho does not do this poorly by any means: Miss Saigon just does it particularly well and consistently.

If it’s your first time trying Vietnamese food at either

restaurant, you should end your meal with a boba tea, a blended, iced drink originally from Taiwan, which usually features tea or fruit flavors and contains miniature tapioca balls. It’s a draw on whose is better though, as Miss Saigon and Saigon Pho offer virtually the same drink, and both are very tasty.

If you should find yourself looking to expand your culinary palette this weekend, you should definitely take your money to Miss Saigon before Saigon Pho. Miss Saigon is the best tasting Vietnamese food around campus as the food is consistently delicious.

But should you find yourself on University, don’t hesitate to swing into Saigon Pho and grab yourself a jumbo bowl of pho.

MUSIC

LOCAL REGGAE THAT ROCKS

HAYDEN JORDE “For your health, the planets and the animals, all ingredients are cholesterol free, cruelty free and vegan,” says the menu at local Tucson restaurant Lovin’ Spoonfuls, and it’s not lying.

Literally every item on the menu is vegan and anything that can be is 100 percent organic. Dining at Lovin’ Spoonfuls is truly a wonderful experience for a vegan or vegetarian who is looking to enjoy dishes that typically belong to the carnivores’ culinary world.

The staff at Lovin’ Spoonfuls is a bit quirky and incredibly friendly, and the atmosphere in the restaurant is relaxed.

The lighting is low, the music is calming and the decor is natural and warm. All of this helps to create a pleasant experience at this restaurant located on the corner of Campbell Avenue and Blacklidge Drive.

The lunch menu has a delicious collection of soy meat and cheese substitute-based dishes, including vegan grilled cheese, chicken nuggets, tuna, BBQ beef, BLTs and a wide selection of burgers.

Entrees on the lunch menu cost between $6.95 and $8.25 and come with a side of potato salad, coleslaw or carrot walnut-raisin salad.

The entree called BLT Deluxe is a solid meal, but it doesn’t really resemble its meaty counterpart. The vegan mayonnaise used at Lovin’ Spoonfuls was delicious, but the soy bacon itself was a bit too crispy.

However, the Classic Burger was incredibly good. Soy meat patties are often a bit dry, but not at Lovin’ Spoonfuls, which does soy meat justice with this juicy, cruelty-free burger served on a whole-wheat, 100 percent organic bun. Pair this with a glass of Lovin’ Spoonfuls’ spiced tea, potato salad and kettle-cooked chips, and you have one awesome vegan lunch that doesn’t lack flavor.

As a vegan, you might think you would never again get to indulge in the goodness that is an allAmerican chili dog, but you’d be wrong. If you are a vegan with a craving you might want to consider the vegan chili dog or the golden nuggets.

You can buy soy nuggets at the grocery store, but those just don’t compare to the savory nugs they serve up at Lovin’ Spoonfuls, and the same is true of canned vegan chili and soy hot dogs. Lovin’ Spoonfuls does it better.

If you are a vegan looking for somewhere tasty to eat lunch this weekend, don’t pass up the opportunity to try out Lovin’ Spoonfuls.

UA students make a balancing act out of school, fraternity life and their families RACHEL CABAKOFF

T

he Phoenix-native band members of Something Like Seduction have known each other since their childhood years and spent high school combining their musical talents.

Now, in college, it’s a different ballgame of balancing their studies and the art they love.

The band consists of drummer Esteban Obregon, bassist Tyler Cunningham, guitarist Nik Gelo and vocalist Connor Shea.

Last year they performed in their Arizona-Sonora Residence Hall room, but now they have their own practice space downtown where they can jam out and not worry about waking the neighbors.

Now sophomores at the UA, the members are becoming more involved with the band while also trying to focus on their studies and keeping their grades up. With

majors like industrial engineering, computer science and business, bio-systems engineering and finance, the stresses of school can sometimes overpower the band.

“It’s pretty tough balancing the two,” Shea said. “I’ll have hours of homework and I get spread a little thin at times, but we definitely always make time for the band, regardless of how busy we are.”

Gelo, as a double major in business and computer science, said the band as a whole is feeling the heat from both their families and school.

“It’ll be tough having no sleep and practicing up to the wee hours of the morning, but we pull through it,” Gelo said.

Not all members of the band feel pressure on all sides, though.

“My parents are very supportive,” Cunningham said.

“My dad is a fellow musician so he knows what’s up.”

Within the past year, Something Like Seduction has released

multiple singles, trying to get its name out there.

The band released its first EP, “From the Sun,” in February, which started the ripple effect of singles including “What Hits You First” and, most recently, “The Receiver.”

They’re hoping to release another single during winter break.

Something Like Seduction’s sound can be described as a fusion between reggae and rock, differentiating itself from fully reggae-sounding bands like Slightly Stoopid or Rebelution.

“Our biggest band influences are Pepper and The Expendables, our favorite band is Blink-182,” Shea said. “Most of these bands all have more of a rock sound as well, which is why we love them.”

The band has played at local venues, spreading its reggae/rock sound around places like The Hut, The Rock and at Shea and Obregon’s fraternity house, Sigma Chi, in addition to hitting up The Marquee, Pub Rock and Clubhouse

in Phoenix.

“Our music is fun and relatable, all just good vibes,” Gelo said.

“Were not trying to take ourselves too seriously, just having fun.”

Something Like Seduction plans to continue playing throughout college and come out with more singles, and hopefully someday a feature-length album.

“We have some new songs and music videos coming out within the next couple of months,” Obregon said. “I really want to get our name out around campus.”

The band has big plans for the future, but for right now the four are going to keep hitting the books and playing the music they love.

FROM TUCSON TO THE POP CHARTS ALEX WHELAN

W

turki allugman/arizona Daily Wildcat

TUCSON NATIVE Lexa Raquel has cracked the Billboard Hot Singles chart with her No. 9 hit, “One Of A Kind.”

ith a No. 9 hit on the Billboard Hot Singles Sales chart at the young age of 19, it would be easy enough for Tucson native Lexa Raquel to put up her feet and call it a day.

Raquel, however, is not your average singer/songwriter. Even with the runaway success of her hit, “One of a Kind,” Raquel refuses to take a break, pushing forward with her longtime dream of being a professional singer. Of course with her level of training and passion, it’s not unreasonable to picture Raquel soon becoming a name people look to for inspiration and quality music.

Raquel began her career singing in the opera at age 5. She said her musical vision and style first came to her as a freshman in high school.

“Technically I had training before then, because I had my first voice lesson when I was 7,” she said. “When I was a freshman, though, was when I started taking it more seriously and writing my own songs.”

A turning point came for Raquel when she was approached by Tucson local and American Idol contestant Crystal Stark about the possibility of mentoring the young freshman. “ Crystal and I go to the same church, so we were at vacation Bible school and she just heard me singing,” Raquel said. “After that first day, she immediately approached me about singing with her, and so through my senior year of high school she gave me voice lessons once a week.”

In addition to inspiring Raquel to take a shot at singing professionally, Stark came to be a role model to Raquel.

“I couldn’t imagine any of this without her,” Raquel added.

In high school Raquel also became an expert at writing her own material inspired by subjects from heartbreak to family values. “One of a Kind,” the thumping synthesizer-laden club song largely responsible for her name recognition, was inspired by her grandfather and his support of her attempt to sing professionally. “‘One of a Kind’ has a very special place in my heart, because it was the song that got my foot in the door,” she said. “But ultimately it was a very safe song. The record I’m doing right now is me — more my style.”

A YouTube search reveals Raquel’s staggering number of songs that show her sound, including an acoustic R&B of originals like “All of Me,” and the straight soul of her cover of Alicia Keys’ “Unthinkable.”

Raquel said that forging her own style in the music market is one of her primary goals as an artist.

“I want to make a difference with my style and my lyrics, and I think a big part of that is just being different enough to stand out to people,” she said.

For Raquel, reaching people through music is the most crucial part of her work.

“Music is so universal,” she said. “It’s the one language everyone can understand. It’s so important because of that.”

After attending the UA last year as a music education major, Raquel set about making her dreams come true by flying to Nashville to record. Given “full creative control” for the album, Raquel enthusiastically described her forthcoming music as some of her most inspired and diverse work yet.

“Recording this album has just reminded me not to let opportunity pass you by,” she said. “My advice to everyone out there is just to follow your dreams. If you work hard, you can make them happen.”

Ryanhood are ready to play Press photo

The Tucson folk-pop duo plays the Rialto Theartre Saturday, debuting solo acts, playing with UA’s CatCall GRANT HULL Ryanhood, the folk-pop duo of Ryan Green and Cameron Hood, is back in Tucson a year after the release of its fourth and most recent album, After Night Came Sun. The local duo is known for its infectious songwriting and extensive touring, having opened for Jason Mraz and Train, as well as performing in small college venues. Following a tour of college campuses across the country to promote Sun, Green and Hood are preparing for a Saturday night performance at the Rialto Theatre.

The show will also feature Green and Hood’s respective side projects including The Great Collision and Cameron and Callie, as well as the UA’s men’s a cappella group, CatCall.

Ecstatic about its first show in Tucson in a year, Ryanhood will look to reconnect with its massive local fan base, and deliver its unique

a café. We did that a ton, but it wasn’t really and friends, but we thought it was good enough fulfilling and it wasn’t really worth being to release.

DW: What have you guys been up to since away from home for long periods of time.

Are you excited to work with CatCall? What After Night Came Sun was released?

Hood: We toured in little pieces — we’d go Ryanhood is headlining the Rialto show this will their involvement be with the show?

It’s awesome. They picked one of our songs up the West Coast for a month, then go up the Saturday, but both you and Ryan have side East Coast for a couple weeks or something, but projects performing as well. What are these “Around the Sun,” to use in their competition.

We gave them rights to do that and they put largely we haven’t toured this record anywhere projects about?

Since we chose not to tour right now, we’re it on their newest CD. We worked with them near as much as past records because we got just involved in other stuff. One of them is in the past but this time it was like, “Why burned out on touring.

For an indie band you have a couple Ryan’s project The Great Collision. He’s the don’t you come be our background singers?” different choices. One is you can get a song singer and songwriter and the main thrust, They’re all of that for this show; they’re filling in a movie or on YouTube and get some kind whereas in Ryanhood, I do more of that and in all those kind of meaty backup parts.

We’re going to do a couple songs with them of buzz phenomenon that gets you through he’s the harmonist and blazing guitar guy. This without major label support. Another would be gives him a chance to step out and sing from his a cappella, where they’re our band. It’s kind extensive touring where you play everywhere heart, and kind of let people get to know him of flattering when you’re a band and another in the U.S. ten times each — or really good more. It’s a little bit more dreamy, cinematic band is like, “Hey, we like you enough to management would be a good way to do it. than Ryanhood, which is more folk-stomp pop. record your song on our CD and to do it I’ve got just a little side project with my friend at competitions.” So we’re charmed. I like What we did was college touring.

Most universities have a set aside budget Carlie, who I just think has a honey voice, the connection with the U of A. CatCall is just for entertaining their students, but it’s and she doesn’t really have aspirations to be a awesome. They belong to the U of A and it’s not like a big theatre show like Centennial rock star. We actually have a Christmas record our way of connecting and saying, “I went Hall or something. It’s more like a show in coming out. Initially we made it for our family here. This is my hometown.” brand of accessible, easygoing folk pop.

“We go against Matt [Scott] and Ka’Deem [Carey] all the time,” linebacker Marquis Flowers said. “It definitely helps going against the speed of a spread offense like that with a quarterback that can run, because Matt and Ka’Deem gave us all the looks. We know what can hurt us. We just gotta go out and play.”

Arizona has earned high marks for its No. 5-ranked passing offense (first in the Pac-12), and rightfully so, but the running game has been impressive in its own right.

The Wildcats are third in the Pac-12 in rushing offense with 199.2 yards per game, just behind UCLA’s 216 per game and a ways back from Oregon’s 330.6.

Carey has vaulted himself into the discussion of top running backs in the Pac-12 with 961 yards and 12

touchdowns, in an impressive competition that includes Franklin, Oregon’s Kenjon Barner and Stanford’s Stepfan Taylor. The sophomore back said he thrives on facing off with some of the best running backs the conference, and the nation, has to offer.

“He’s a great player,” Carey said of Franklin. “I love to go against another great running back. Going against Franklin, you just wanna outrush him and outperform him. He’s gonna be looking to do the same thing.”

Both UCLA and Arizona run similar, no-huddle offenses. They have mobile quarterbacks and talented running backs, and both are looking to take the reins from USC at the top of the Pac-12 South on Saturday, with a little help from Oregon. Scott isn’t looking at the standings, or toward the possibility of a berth in the Pac12 championship game, though.

“We can lose respect really easy by losing a couple games here or there,” Scott said. “So we just want to keep going, keep fighting and try to get W’s.”

UCLA passing versus UA pass defense

Rodriguez has talked about the size and athletic ability of UCLA redshirt freshman quarterback Brett Hundley, and the Bruins have enough weapons to make it a long day for UA’s passing defense, which is ranked last in the Pac-12.

The Wildcats give up 316.4 yards per game. Hundley averages 307.1 yards per game, but don’t be surprised to see a spike in his production against the Wildcats’ woeful defense.

Advantage: UCLA

UCLA rushing versus UA rush defense

Seen as its worst attribute only a few games ago, the UA rush defense has improved as the season progressed.

Against Arizona, the Trojans only rushed for 125 yards.

UCLA has the leading rusher in the conference in Franklin, and an offense that is committed to feeding him the ball.

Franklin rushes for 130.2 yards per game and is the only rusher in the conference with more than 1,000 yards.

Advantage: UCLA

Senior kicker John Bonano missed another field goal against USC, but has hit PAT’s consistently. Senior punter Kyle Dugandzic is fourth in the conference in yards per punt, averaging 43.9 yards, and he kicked a 70-yarder against USC that played a major role in the Trojans’ failure to score on the final drive.

UCLA kicker Ka’imi Fairbairn is third in the Pac-12 with 7.4 points per game. The Bruins also have the third best return unit in the conference, averaging 26.9 yards per game.

Advantage: Even

Coaching

Both Rodriguez and UCLA head coach Jim Mora Jr. are in their first year as head coach, and each has helped to change the culture of their respective programs.

After years as conference doormats and conference irrelevancy, both teams have a chance to make the Rose Bowl, and this game is a crucial one for both teams as the season draws to a close.

Rodriguez and his offense have kept up with and even outgained some of the best competition in the country, but UCLA has shown it can stop opponents defensively, something that the Wildcats have struggled with.

GO WATCH WHO:

Arizona at UCLA

WHEN:

Saturday, 7:30 p.m.

WHERE:

Rose Bowl (Los Angeles)

UA will try to take control of Pac-12 South against Bruins ZACK ROSENBLATT At his introductory press conference last November, head coach Rich Rodriguez said his goal was to bring the UA to its first-ever Rose Bowl.

On Saturday, the No. 24 Wildcats (5-3, 2-3 Pac-12) will travel to Los Angeles to take on No. 25 UCLA (62, 3-2 Pac-12) at 7:30 p.m. in the Rose Bowl Stadium.

The BCS Rose Bowl doesn’t take place until Jan. 1, but the UA has caught the rest of the Pac-12 off guard as it tries to make a run to the top of the Pac-12 South and come closer to Rodriguez’s ultimate goal.

USC was supposed to win the Pac12 South, yet the Wildcats upset it 3936 last week at Arizona Stadium.

If Arizona defeats the Bruins and USC falls to No. 4 Oregon, the Wildcats will be in a tie for first place in the South with UCLA and USC, and would hold the tiebreaker having beaten both California schools.

Rodriguez doesn’t want Arizona getting too far ahead of itself.

“That is way out there,” Rodriguez said. “I’m worried about tomorrow’s practice. I haven’t thought about anything but what we have to do to win this game.”

The Bruins are not a team to look past, either. UCLA opened some eyes in week two, upsetting then-No.16 Nebraska, and its rushing attack led

by Johnathan Franklin is 23rd in the nation and second in the Pac-12.

Franklin leads the Pac-12 with 1,042 yards, to go with six touchdowns, and is complemented by versatile freshman quarterback Brett Hundley, who has 267 yards and five touchdowns on the ground.

“He’s one of the best backs, probably in the country, definitely in the Pac-12,” defensive lineman Tevin Hood said. “He’s a hard runner. With the lead option and lead zone they run we need to focus on keeping up with him and Hundley. We can’t have any holes in the defense.”

Luckily, the Wildcats have a bit of practice going against a speedy quarterback-running back combination.

t times during the Wildcats’ 39-36 upset against USC last week, the defense looked like boys struggling to play against men — well, actually just one man: receiver Marqise Lee. Lee ran around, through and past Arizona to the tune of 469 total yards. As in, one single player ran for more than a quarter mile against the Wildcats, and somehow the UA still won.

Obviously most of the credit goes to the Arizona offense, specifically quarterback Matt Scott and receiver Austin Hill. And considering Lee’s Pac-12 record 345 receiving yards was a greater yardage total than 21 teams have averaged per game this season, it’d be hard to say the defense played well, at least statistically.

That’s not a single game trend either, as the Arizona defense gift wraps yardage like it’s Christmas
