Arizona lost fumbles by Antwan Roberts and Gio Richardson against NAU, making pressure-point control and protection against defensive punch-outs specific ball-security priorities for Seth Doege's offense.

Arizona's first-half offense maintained the balance and running-back opportunities Doege wanted, and he believed its four possessions could have produced 28 points without the fumble rather than identifying an inability to move the ball as the main early problem.

Arizona started the second half poorly on familiar plays, with Doege criticizing players for freelancing instead of following details and assignments while acknowledging he had not fully explained the slowdown.

Arizona quarterback Sawyer Anderson threw an interception on his first college pass but recovered to establish a rhythm, including a difficult third-down completion to Isaiah Mizell after climbing the pocket, which Doege highlighted as a positive response rather than dismissing the initial decision error.
