SPOKANE, Wash. (AP) — There’s fast and then there’s Arizona vs. Washington State fast.

The teams with the two best offenses in the Pac-12 like to play quickly and they put up big numbers offensively while doing it.

The big question when No. 15 Arizona (5-1, 2-1) visits Washington State (2-5, 1-3) on Saturday may be whether the Cougars can even slow the Wildcats down.

Washington State defensive lineman Destiny Vaeao said a key to the game will be slowing down Arizona quarterback Anu Solomon, the No. 9 passer in the nation in total yards.

Washington State, meanwhile, leads the nation in passing behind senior quarterback Connor Halliday and a bevy of talented receivers.
