We are listed as nine point road favorites at Arizona. Their statistics are not overly impressive: #61 offense and #100 defense. But they have a stud on each side of the ball in Tonnemaker and Tate.

Floyd Tonnemaker has played in 16 games in his career - the first 15 were 100+ yard games. But Washington State held him to 76 last week. Although he is not considered as polished a runner as some others, I consider him to be the most productive runner that I have had to coach against in 8 seasons of Pac 10 play.

QB Willie Heinrich is a 4th year starter who has no one to throw to this year.

DT Damien Tate is set to graduate as well and we will not miss him. He has 31 sacks in his college career and is likely to set new highs for tackles and sacks this season.

OLB John Heap leads the team in tackles. He will also be gone after this season. Arizona may be in some trouble next year.
