After a poor start, the Wildcats would find their rhythm and started to win again. A low point of the season occurred in the finale in the rivalry game against Arizona State. With a potential chance at bowl-eligibility at stake, the Wildcats entered the final quarter thinking the game was over with a large lead, which led to a collapse and ultimately losing to end with a 5–7 record. In 2019, with Tate returning, Arizona started 4–1 early in the season but played poorly on both offense and defense and finished the year on a seven-game losing streak that included another rivalry loss to ASU for a 4–8 record. </p> <div class="mw-heading mw-heading3"><h3 id="2020s–present_(Future_and_Big_12_move)"><span id="2020s.E2.80.93present_.28Future_and_Big_12_move.29"></span>2020s–present (Future and Big 12 move)</h3><span class="mw-editsection"><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">[</span><a href="/w/index.php?title=Arizona_Wildcats_football&action=edit&section=8" title="Edit section: 2020s–present (Future and Big 12 move)"><span>edit</span></a><span class="mw-editsection-bracket">]</span></span></div> <p>In 2020, the <a href="/wiki/COVID-19_pandemic" title="COVID-19 pandemic">COVID-19 pandemic</a> put an effect on the Wildcats as well as the entire college football season.

It followed an offseason of poor recruiting and players taking COVID-19 opt-outs.

After an 0–8 start which included an upset loss to Northern Arizona earlier in the season (Arizona had not lost to NAU since 1932 before then), Fisch would finally earn his first victory as Arizona coach when the Wildcats defeated California in early November, with several players and coaches for the Golden Bears were out because of COVID-19.<sup id="cite_ref-103" class="reference"><a href="#cite_note-103"><span class="cite-bracket">[</span>103<span class="cite-bracket">]</span></a></sup> It turned out to Arizona's only win of the season, as they finished with a 1–11 record, including a loss to Arizona State for the fifth straight year.

During the 1982 season, the Wildcats wore their road white jerseys for several home games due to winning big on the road that year, including the rivalry game against ASU (an NCAA rule change on uniform colors in 1983 forced Arizona to wear their blue jerseys at home full-time.
