Keeping snap counts and Pro Football Focus grades from the Arizona Wildcats loss to Colorado

It wasn’t your imagination; Arizona’s 34-7 home loss to Colorado was about as ugly as it gets.

But from a ratings standpoint, the Wildcats weren’t nearly as bad in some areas as they were at others during what is quickly becoming a losing season. According to Pro football focusThe UA’s overall grade of 65.0 on Saturday was slightly better than BYU’s 64.5 from the week before, but that grade was heavily influenced by the defense.

Arizona’s defense scored 75.3, second-best this season and behind only the 84.3 it earned for beating NAU in Week 2. The Wildcats’ run defense (83.4) was also second to NAU match and they recorded their second-best tackling grade (67.2) of the season.

In attack, however, it was a completely different (and bad) story. Arizona posted a 53.4 grade for its time with the ball, its lowest since October 2021, when it posted a 52.9 grade in a 34-0 loss to Colorado.

The passing game was the main culprit, with a pass-blocking grade of 42.7 the lowest since a 33.9 at Utah in 2022.

For the season, Arizona’s overall grade has dropped from 81.8 to 72nd out of 134 FBS schools. Next weekend’s opponent, West Virginia, is ranked 69the at 81.8.
