2013 AdvoCare V100 Bowl: 5 Big Questions With Zona Zealots
By Joe Micik
1.) In the midst of all the offense talk, we’ve neglected the Arizona defense. How would you grade their performance this year, and most importantly, do you think they could slow down Andre Williams?
JS: Not a lot has been made of Arizona’s improvement on defense. A year after yielding nearly 500 yards per game, good for 122nd in the country, the Wildcats are allowing about 100 yards per game less than that this season.
However, I still don’t think they’re quite at level they need to be to compete in the offensive-minded Pac-12. As for this game, I think that they will have some trouble stopping Andre Williams. They’ve yielded over 400 rushing yards in their past two games and give up over four yards per carry to their opposition on the season. However, if they are able to slow down the Boston College offense and force them to throw, the Eagles might struggle against an underrated Arizona pass defense.
Bonus.) Predict the final score, if you please.
JS: Arizona 35, Boston College 28
