Arizona is not Stanford, but in terms of their ability to move the ball in the air, they're not that far off. Washington's passing game isn't bad either and Arizona's defense has been terrible this year, but Arizona's numbers are extremely skewed right now due to their absolutely brutal first half schedule (5th toughest in FBS, including OK State/Oregon/Stanford in consecutive weeks), so I would be shocked if Arizona doesn't look WAY better from here on out than their numbers would indicate. Also, 3 of Washington's 5 wins don't really impress me. The California and Utah games were good wins against teams that are more on Washington's level, but escaping with a 3 point win vs Eastern Washington and beating Colorado and Hawaii, who are both inferior teams, is not particularly impressive. I think this would be a good spot to put a small play on the Arizona ML, honestly, but I would not lay points on UW here.
