TUCSON, Az. - Travis Cobb is building a name for himself, one kickoff return at a time.
The Arizona Wildcats junior was a special teams star in Saturday's 36-33 loss to Washington, returning five kicks for 118 yards. Coaches also included Cobb on offense - he ran the ball twice on fly-sweep plays for a total of 6 yards.
