The Arizona Wildcats retained their place in the Associated Press Top 25 poll released on November 1, 2026, after falling to the Texas Tech Red Raiders on October 31 in Lubbock, Texas.
Running back Kedrick Reescano scored a first-half touchdown for Arizona at Galaxy Stadium, but the Wildcats were unable to overcome the Red Raiders. The loss marked Arizona's first defeat of the season, yet the team held onto its ranking heading into the next week of college football action.
