Under the Friday night lights at Arizona Stadium, the Wildcats walked onto the field for another practice. The big difference this time? It was the first occasion players suited up in full pads during Training Camp, setting the tone for the upcoming season.
With only three weeks until the New Mexico Lobos arrive in Tucson for the season opener, Arizona's football team is showing signs of development and perseverance amid an injury bug. Coach Brennan spoke to the media afterwards and here are five takeaways.
