This past weekend was not a very good one for the Arizona teams. In football both teams in action lost. Baseball had success but as the season nears the end so do the chances of post season play. Here's a look at what happened.
Let's start on the diamond. The Dbacks hosted the San Diego Padres and got out to a great start. They outscored the Padres 13-2 to take the first 2 games of the series. They came up short on the sweep losing yesterday 6-4. The Dbacks are now one loss away from being eliminated from the playoffs. 6 games remain on the schedule as they start a 3 game series with St. Louis and then end the season with the Padres again.
In college football the Arizona Wildcats had a bye and play UCLA next. The Sun Devil's played Colorado in what many people were calling a trap game. The undefeated ASU Sun Devil's were coming off a huge win and ranked 25 in the country. When Al was said and done the game indeed was a trap game and ASU fell 34-31. ASU plays Cal next.
In the NFL the Cardinals played host to the Carolina Panthers in what many thought would be the Cardinals first win of the season. QB Can Newton was out with a foot injury but second year, Scottsdale native filled in just nicely. Carolina added a hefty doe of Christian McCaffrey and came away with 38-20 victory. The Cardinals host division rival Seattle next Sunday.
