The Wildcats, now riding a 20-game losing skid, look to end a drought that's carried over two years. UA quarterback Will Plummer is coming off a career-high performance of 264 yards against the USC Trojans last Saturday. "Wildcat" quarterback Jamarye Joiner is doubtful for Saturday after suffering a knee injury against USC. 

ÃÛèÖÖ±²¥ head coach Jedd Fisch discussed Joiner's status, Plummer's confidence, among other topics, during his pre-Cal news conference; here's what he had to say:
