Arizona bounces back with 65-41 rout over Northern Arizona

TUCSON, Ariz. -- Arizona rallied from a season-opening loss by scoring quickly and building an insurmountable halftime lead. The Wildcats let down in the second half and had too many penalties to be satisfied completely with the win, particularly with the schedule about to get a whole lot harder. Gary Brightwell ran for 141 yards and a touchdown on five carries, Khalil Tate accounted for three scores and Arizona bounced back from a disappointing opening loss by routing Northern Arizona 65-41 on Saturday night. "I'm happy about the win, but there's a lot of things that I'm not very happy about," Arizona coach Kevin Sumlin said. "I addressed that in the locker room and we're going to continue to address that." Arizona (1-1) had an extra week off to think about its opening loss to Hawaii.
