TUCSON, AZ (Tucson News Now) -
The Arizona Wildcats head to Oregon Saturday as a three touchdown underdog to the number three team in the nation, but with some experience this season that the Ducks do not have.
#21 Arizona has been in two tough games already including, one with a ranked opponent that they won.
And yes that game against then-#18 Oklahoma State was not in the hostile environment that will await the Wildcats at Autzen Stadium, but Ducks running back Kenjon Barner say his team knows that even though they might have more talent than the Wildcats, they still have to play like it come Saturday.
Meanwhile for Arizona to have any shot this is one of those games where they are going to have to dominate in the running game.
The Wildcats are currently averaging just under 250 yards per game on the ground and they will need to hit that number or more in Eugene.
It's another 7:30 kickoff and that's another advantage for UA. The Cats have played all late games this season while this will be Oregon's first contest under the lights in 2012.
