The Wildcats are heavily favored in this match-up but playing the Wolf Pack could be tricky.

The Wildcats hand to hold off a fourth quarter comeback by UTSA to escape with a win last week.  Arizona could have similar problems with the Wolf Pack.  Nevada depends heavily on their rushing offense. Arizona has had diffculty stopping the run this year having allowed over 100 yards rushing in each of their two games this season.

The other danger for the Arizona Wildcats lies in their own offensive scheme.  Rich Rod’s big play offense must produce points on each possession to be effective.  If Nevada can get some stops on defense they could keep Anu Solomon and the big play Wildcats off the field with a solid running attack.

With a win the Wildcats will start the season 3-0 and will most certainly move into the AP Top 25.  However a loss would be a major set-back for a team eager to prove itself as one of the teams to beat in the PAC-12.
