FILM ROOM: Hunter Johnson Shows Significant Improvement vs UNLV

By Kevin Sweeney
12-25, 165 yards, 1 TD, 1 INT.
A quick glance at those numbers probably doesn’t inspire a ton of confidence in Hunter Johnson’s second game as a Wildcat, especially considering he was taking on a UNLV defense that was fresh off giving up 43 points to Arkansas State.

The offense moved the ball well all game, and could have had an even better showing if the receiving corps made a few plays.
