TUCSON, Ariz. (AP) — Once upon a time, the Arizona Wildcats had a reputation for playing rock-ribbed defense.

The Wildcats (4-2, 2-1 Pac-10) have thrust themselves into contention in the Pac-10 by outscoring opponents. Coach Mike Stoops expects his defense to improve when slumping UCLA (3-3, 0-3) visits Arizona Stadium.

Bruins coach Rick Neuheisel also wants his defense to snap out of a three-game slump.
