www.arizonawildcats.com 1 THE STORY OF BEAR DOWN University of Arizona Athletics’ most enduring tradition is the slogan and battle cry, “Bear Down.” More than a casual piece of encouragement, the rally cry has roots over a century old, to the Roaring ‘20s, and pre-dates another venerated exhortation, “Win one for the Gipper,” by two years. In the fall of 1926, John Byrd “Button” Salmon was the newly installed student body president at the UA, a promising student and member of note of several of the school’s honor societies. He also was a varsity quarterback, a baseball catcher and generally acclaimed popular cam- pus figure. He embodied all-around. In early October after the Wildcat varsity defeated the freshman squad in an annual match at the time, Salmon and several friends were return- ing from a visit to Phoenix, and an automobile crash north of Tucson near Florence left the young athlete critically injured. Salmon, then 22, lost his battle and died the morning of Oct. 18. A me- morial service was held on campus that week, drawing a reported thousand mourners, and a line of cars stretched miles to his burial plot. The coach at the time, J.F. “Pop” McKale, had visited Salmon in the hos- pital regularly before his death, and later told the squad the young athlete’s last message to his teammates was, “Tell them... tell the team to bear down.” It’s unclear whether McKale invoked the phrase to the team before one of several games that year, a contest in Las Cruces against New Mex- ico A&M (NMSU) that same week, or two weeks later before a game against New Mexico in Tucson. UA won both. But when word spread, the UA student body drew to the phrase swiftly, and among other uses painted the slogan on the roof of the Univer- sity gymnasium shortly thereafter, known since as Bear Down Gym. An airplane view of that huge-lettered phrase caused eventual long- time band director Jack K. Lee to write the song, “Bear Down, Arizo- na” during his application for the UA band job. The song, and Douglas Holsclaw’s “Fight, Wildcats, Fight,” are played throughout University of Arizona sporting events, and from the campus belltower daily. Originally located outside the McKale Memorial Center upon its dedi- cation in 1986, the bronze bust memorial to John “Button” Salmon was relocated in 2013 to more visible quarters near the Lowell-Stevens Football Facility. The new location placed the bust closer to the stadi- um, representative of Salmon’s participation in football. The bust faces southeast so that it may look across the former Kindall-Sancet baseball stadium and on to the current home of Arizona baseball, Hi Corbett Field, as well as Salmon’s hometown of Bisbee. As part of a new tradition established with the 2013 season, Arizona football players pass and touch the bust as a show of tribute as they complete the “Wildcat Walk” and enter the Lowell-Stevens Football Fa- cility before every home game. The “Bear Down” rally cry also appears inside Arizona Stadium. Arizona’s FieldTurf playing surface features “Bear Down” in ghost lettering behind the prominent block “A” logo at midfield. In spring of 2008, a highway memorial honoring the Bear Down tradi- tion was installed along State Route 79 near the site of the tragic crash at Florence. With or without the pieces of bronze and marble, Bear Down as a phrase and song has been inexorably a part of UA athletics, woven into its fabric year after year, since October 1926. Since 2000, UA Athletics has awarded John Button Salmon Awards to 23 former coaches or ad- ministrators for exemplary leaadership and service to the University, in honor of the tradition’s namesake. “Button” Salmon died generations ago but his message still echoes across every UA athletic venue, in every corner and through every building on campus, and in the thoughts of tens of thousands of Wild- cat supporters past, present and future.

THE STORY OF BEAR DOWNUniversity of Arizona Athletics’ most enduring tradition is the slogan and battle cry, “Bear Down.” More than a casual piece of encouragement, the rally cry has roots over a century old, to the Roaring ‘20s, and pre-dates another venerated exhortation, “Win one for the Gipper,” by two years.

ARIZONA FOOTBALLMEDIA POLICIES AND PROCEDURES

Media InformationBlair Willis and Daniel Berk of Arizona Athletics Communication Services will assist media members throughout the season in their coverage of Arizona Football including issuing a weekly news release, daily news items, home game statistical packages, administering news conferences, practice and press box operations, credentialing and road-game access, among other ser-vices. Any questions about media policies should be directed to Blair Willis via email at [email protected] or (520) 621-0914.

PracticeCoverage of football practice stipulates consent with restrictions on report-ing formations, strategies, special personnel shifts or injuries without prior questions directed to and answered by head coach Rich Rodriguez. Before covering a practice, please contact Blair Willis or Daniel Berk of the Arizona Athletics Communication Services staff. Preseason camp and regular season media policies will be outlined in a media advisory prior to start dates. A weekly injury report is released on Thursday during the season, otherwise injuries are likely to not be addressed by the head coach. No injury questions should be directed to players at any time.

CredentialsCredentials will be issued to professional members of media outlets that reg-ularly cover Arizona Athletics and to regional, national or visiting profes-sional journalists. Internet entities may or may not qualify for credentials and will be considered on a case-by-case basis. All credential requests may be submitted at www.arizonawildcats.com/FBCredentials. Game-specific cre-dential requests must be received no later than 48 hours prior to a contest. Parking and press seating may be limited for certain games. All questions concerning credentials should be directed to Blair Willis at [email protected] or 520-621-0914.

UsageUsage of imagery, audio and video taken at Arizona Athletics events is re-stricted to editorial purposes; these guidelines are covered in materials is-sued to reporters, editors and photographers upon receipt of credentials and/or access. They include guidelines on live Internet reporting, notably live description of statistical and/or play-by-play and uses of visual imagery, rules strengthened for televised games.

Arizona On AirThe Arizona IMG Sports Network, with Cumulus Broadcasting Company, uses KCUB 1290AM in Tucson as the flagship station for originating radio broad-casts, augmented by KCUB’s 100,000-watt sister FM station, KHYT 107.5FM, in Southern Arizona.

Broadcasts of Arizona football games are led by Director of Broadcasting Brian Jeffries. The veteran play-by-play announcer has served as the voice of the Wildcats for football, basketball and baseball since Arizona’s 1986 Aloha Bowl football appearance.

Since 2004, Jeffries has been joined by color analyst Lamont Lovett, a former UA running back. Dana Cooper rounds out the broadcast team as the sideline reporter, while Rob Joyce provides live scoreboard updates and highlights from other games around the country.

Additionally, IMG produces Spanish-language radio broadcasts for select football, men’s basketball and women’s basketball games. Francisco Romero provides the play-by-play commentary for the broadcasts, which are avail-able online at www.arizonawildcats.com

In addition to the game broadcasts, the Arizona IMG Sports Network pro-duces a weekly radio show with Rich Rodriguez. Fans are invited to view the show in person Tuesday nights at 7 p.m. at Brother John’s Beer, Bourbon and BBQ located at 1801 N Stone Ave in Tucson.

HEAD COACH RICH RODRIGUEZ

Rich RodriguezSixth Season at Arizona

2014 Pac-12 Coach of the Year2017 AFCA President

Record at UA: 36-29Career Record: 156-113-2 (23 years)

Many consider Rich Rodriguez the godfather of the spread offense, especially in regards to the zone read concept he invented more than 25 years ago that has since become a component of most all modern day college offenses. Rodriguez has continued to evolve his system as head coach at Arizona, where he has led the Wildcats to four bowl games, a Pac-12 South Division Championship and an appearance in a New Year’s Six bowl game over his first five seasons in the Old Pueblo.

Heading into 2017, Rodriguez carries a career head coaching record of 156-113-2 in 23 seasons, marked by FBS/Division I records of 60-26 at West Virginia, 15-22 at Michigan and 36-29 with the Wildcats. He began his head coaching career at Salem (W.Va.) University in 1988 and then coached at Glenville State (W.Va.) from 1990-96.

Under the direction of Rodriguez, the Wildcats have established themselves as one of the most exciting and explosive programs in the Pac-12 Conference. In his five seasons, Arizona has tied or set more than 100 offensive school records, including single-game records for categories such as most points, total yards, rushing yards, passing yards and even biggest comeback. New all-time leaders have been set for career rushing and all-purpose yardage, while the top freshman rushing and passing seasons have also been rewritten under Rodri-guez’s tutelage.

Among the numerous accomplishments, Rodriguez led the Wildcats to 33 wins in his first four seasons, a tally that was the most in school history over a four-year period. Included were four consecutive bowl berths, another feat previously never accomplished at the school. Those four seasons all had one notable achievement in common: each earned a win over an Associated Press top 10 team.

The 2016 proved to be the most challenge for Rodriguez as his squad was dealt an emotional blow the first week of August training camp when senior offensive lineman Zach Hemmila passed away unexpect-edly. A seemingly endless string of injuries to key players followed, especially at quarterback and running back, leading to a disappoint-ing 3-9 finish.

Still, Rodriguez was able to produce the Pac-12’s top rushing attack, which churned out 235.0 yards per game, ninth-best in school history. The highlight was a season-ending blowout of rival Arizona State, in which the Wildcats set a school record with 511 rushing yards to claim the Territorial Cup championship for the second time in the last three seasons.

The 2015 season, Rodriguez’s fourth in the Old Pueblo, produced a New Mexico Bowl victory and a win over an Associated Press Top 10 opponent (No. 10 Utah) for the fourth straight season. The four-year senior class again went out winners, capping off a four-year stretch with 33 total victories that is the most ever in such a span for the program.

Despite battling a string of injuries on both sides of the ball, Arizona’s offense was again one of the league’s most potent units in 2015. The Wildcats ranked in the top-four in most all major categories, includ-ing third in total offense with 494.9 yards per game, third in rushing (222.3 ypg) and fourth in scoring offense (37.4 ppg). The scoring average was third-highest in school history.

Rodriguez’s third season with the Wildcats was highlighted by a 10-4 record, a Pac-12 South Championship, a Fiesta Bowl berth and winning the Territorial Cup game against ASU. Arizona finished the regular season with 10 wins for only the third time in program history as Rodriguez was named the 2014 Pac-12 Coach of the Year. The streak continued as Rodriguez and the squad defeated a top-10 ranked pro-gram for the third-straight campaign with a 31-24 road victory over No. 2 Oregon on Oct. 2.

Offensively, quarterback Anu Solomon became the first freshman ever to start a season opener for the school and went on to throw for 3,793 yards with 28 passing touchdowns and only nine interceptions. He owns the UA freshman records for passing yards, passing touch-downs, pass attempts (540) and pass completions (313). Freshman Nick Wilson collected seven games with 100+ yards and with his 1,375 markers on the season, he set the school freshman rushing record.

Linebacker Scooby Wright III was easily the nation’s most prolific defender. Based on a vote of head coaches, media and college athletics personnel, he won the Bronko Nagurski Trophy, the Rotary Lombardi Award and the Chuck Bednarik Award, all given annually to the nation’s top defender. Also the Pat Tillman Pac-12 Defensive Player of the Year, he ranked in the top five among FBS players for total tackles (163), tackles for loss (29.0), sacks (14.0) and forced fumbles (6). Wright is UA’s sixth all-time unanimous All-American.

In 2013, the Wildcats posted an 8-5 record with a bowl victory over the Boston College Eagles in the AdvoCare V100 Bowl in Shreveport, La. Arizona knocked off a top-10 ranked team with a 42-16 win over No. 5 Oregon on Nov. 23.

Running back Ka’Deem Carey earned consensus All-America honors for the second-straight season, was named the 2013 Pac-12 offensive Player of the Year and a Doak Walker Award finalist. He ended his three seasons in Tucson as Arizona’s all-time career rushing leader (4,239 yards) and all-time all-purpose yardage leader (5,483). Carey recorded 16-straight games in which he eclipsed the century mark rushing, the longest streak in Pac-12 history and the longest for any FBS player in the last 10 seasons.

Senior B.J. Denker threw for 2,516 yards, completing 233 of 381 at-tempts with just seven interceptions, and connected on 16 scores to eight different receivers. Showing his versatility, Denker also rushed for 949 yards on 181 attempts with 13 scores. Against Colorado, he amassed 457 yards of total offense (265 passing, 192 rushing), the sixth-highest single-game output in school history and a school record for rushing yards in a game by a quarterback.

The 2012 season proved successful for Arizona in Rodriguez’s spread-offense, no-huddle system. The Cats beat No. 10 USC, 39-36, on Oct. 27 en route to an 8-5 season and a win over Nevada in the Gildan New Mexico Bowl. Carey led the nation in total rushing yards (1,929) and yards per game (148.38) while rewriting the Arizona record book. For his efforts, Carey was named first-team All-Pac-12 and a consensus All-American, UA’s first on the offensive side of the ball.

Rodriguez inherited a fifth-year senior in quarterback Matt Scott who was perfectly suited to run the Wildcat offense. With Scott as signal caller, Arizona was 7-5 as he orchestrated come-from-behind wins

Austin Hill totaled 81 catches for 1,364 yards and 11 touchdowns to lead the Wildcat receivers in 2012.

Rodriguez’s West Virginia teams were Big East Champions in 2003, 2004, 2005 and 2007 while appearing in two BCS bowls, the 2005 Sugar Bowl with a victory over Georgia for an 11-1 record and a victory over Oklahoma in the 2007 Fiesta Bowl to finish 10-2 shortly after Rodriguez had left for Michigan. His 2006 club finished 11-2 after a victory over Georgia Tech in the Gator Bowl. He also coached the Mountaineers to the 2002 Continental Tire Bowl and the 2003 and 2004 Gator Bowl.

While at Salem, he was a secondary coach and special teams coordi-nator in 1986 and assistant head coach and defensive coordinator in 1987. He was the youngest head coach in college football when ap-pointed by Salem in 1988 at age 24. The school disbanded its football program the next year and he served as a volunteer assistant at West Virginia working with outside linebackers in 1989.

Prior to accepting the West Virginia job in late November 2000, Rodri-guez served as offensive coordinator and associate head coach for Tommy Bowden at Clemson in 1999 and 2000, with the Tigers record-ing a 15-9 record in two seasons. He was offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach for Bowden at Tulane for two years prior to that, 1997-98, when he helped lead the Green Wave to a 19-4 mark, includ-ing an undefeated 12-0 season with the Conference USA Champs and Liberty Bowl victors in 1998.

At Glenville State, his teams won or shared four consecutive West Virginia Intercollegiate Athletic Conference titles and he was named WVIAC Coach of the Year in 1993 and 1994, as well as the NAIA Coach of the Year after leading his team to a national runner-up finish. He also was recognized by the West Virginia Sports Writers Association as the state College Coach of the Year for all sports in 1993. He led the Pioneers to the national playoffs twice and posted a 43-28-2 record. He also served as Glenville’s AD in 1995-96 and was inducted into its Hall of Fame in 2003.

An active member of the American Football Coaches Association, Rodriguez was named the 2017 AFCA President on Jan. 10, 2017. He originally served on the AFCA Board of Trustees from 2005-10 and was renamed to the board in 2015. He served as first vice-president in 2016.

Rodriguez graduated from West Virginia in 1986, where he started as a walk-on in 1981 and became a three-year letterwinner as a defen-sive back from 1982-84. He added a master’s degree from Salem in 1987. He is a native of Grant Town, W. Va., and graduated from North Marion High School. Rodriguez and his wife, Rita, have two children, Raquel and Rhett.

ASSISTANT COACH BIOGRAPHIES

In his sixth season at Arizona, Calvin Magee joined the Arizona staff on Dec. 7, 2011 as associate head coach, co-offensive coordinator and run-ning backs coach. In spring of 2017, Magee also welcomed the tight end group to his position oversight. Magee been a successful coordinator of spread-option running attacks for head coach Rich Rodriguez at some of the nation’s top programs. With more than 25 years in the profession, he has coached in 12 bowl games.

Under Magee’s direction, Arizona has established the school’s sin-gle-game records for team scoring, total offense and rushing offense. In addition, the Wildcats have produced three of their 10 highest sin-gle-game rushing performances. Individually, Ka’Deem Carey reestab-lished the program’s individual game rushing record, while current backs Nick Wilson and J.J. Taylor own six of the 10 best single-game freshman rushing performances.

In 2016, Arizona’s rushing attack overcame numerous injuries to lead the Pac-12 Conference in rushing with 235 yards per game, which was the ninth-best average in UA history. The Wildcats set the school sin-gle-game rushing record with 511 yards in the Territorial Cup victory over Arizona State. Included in the record-breaking performance were three individual 100-yard rushers in the same contest for only the sec-ond time in program history.

The 2014 season saw a true freshman successfully emerge at running back in Wilson. He collected seven games with 100+ yards and with his 1,375 markers, he set the UA freshman rushing record. Magee’s running backs totaled 2,067 yards and 21 touchdowns during the year, with red-shirt senior Terris Jones-Grigsby chipping in 567 yards and three scores. He put together a 115-yard outing with one touchdown in the Wildcats’ 31-24 road victory at No. 2 Oregon.

In 2013, Carey paced the Wildcats and anchored an offense that posted an 8-5 record and a second-straight bowl win (AdvoCare V100 Bowl). He was a consensus All-American again in 2013, a Doak Walker Award finalist and the 2013 Pac-12 Offensive Player of the Year. Carey departed as Arizona’s all-time career rushing leader (4,239 yards) and all-time all-purpose yardage leader (5,483). He finished the season with 1,885 yards (No. 3 nationally) on 349 carries and 19 touchdowns while av-eraging 157.1 yards per game (No. 2 nationally) and 29.08 carries per game (No. 1 nationally). Carey recorded 16-straight games in which he eclipsed the century mark rushing, the longest streak in Pac-12 history and the longest for any FBS player in the last 10 seasons.

Magee’s first campaign with the Cats, 2012, was a banner year for the Wildcat offense. Carey led the nation in total rushing yards (1,929) and yards per game (148.38) while rewriting the Arizona record book. For his efforts, Carey was named first-team All-Pac-12 and a consensus All-American, UA’s first on the offensive side of the ball.

UA led the Pac-12 in total offense for four-straight weeks (weeks 6-9) and ranked as high as fourth nationally in weeks three, seven and nine. Arizona’s offensive triple-threat attack featured a 3,000-yard passer (Matt Scott - 3,620 yards), a 1,500-yard rusher (Carey - 1,929 yards) and a 1,000-yard receiver (Austin Hill - 1,364 yards).

Magee served as assistant head coach and co-offensive coordinator at Pittsburgh in 2011 after coaching for Rodriguez for three years at Mich-igan (2008-10) and seven years at West Virginia (2001-07).

Rod Smith enters his sixth season with the Wildcats, serving on head coach Rich Rodriguez’s staff as co-offensive coordinator and quarter-backs coach. He joined the staff in December 2011 following one sea-son in the same position at Indiana. A former Rodriguez signal caller himself, he brings some 21 years of experience to the position and has coached in nine bowl games.

During Smith’s tenure in Tucson, Arizona has established the school’s single-game records for team scoring, total offense and rushing of-fense. Despite a new starting quarterback in each of the first three seasons in Tucson, Smith’s passing attack produced two of the top six single-season passing averages in school history. Anu Solomon com-pleted a three-year playing career in 2016 with the third-most passing touchdowns and fourth-most passing yards in UA history.

The 2014 season saw the beginning of a successful career for the young Solomon. He became the first freshman ever to start a season open-er for Arizona and went on to throw for 3,793 yards with 28 passing touchdowns and only nine interceptions. He owns the UA freshman re-cords for passing yards, passing touchdowns, pass attempts (540) and pass completions (313). He threw five touchdown passes in two games and led FBS freshman quarterbacks in total passing yards.

Under Smith’s guidance, fifth-year senior B.J. Denker started and played all 13 games at quarterback in 2013 after playing in six games in 2012. He threw for 2,516 yards, completing 233 of 381 attempts with just sev-en interceptions. He threw for 16 scores to eight different receivers and averaged 193.5 passing yards per game with a long throw of 60 yards to Terrence Miller in Arizona’s road win at California.

Denker also rushed for 949 yards on 181 attempts with 13 scores and recorded a long carry of 54 yards in the Wildcats’ road win at Colora-do. Also against the Buffs, he amassed 457 yards of total offense (265 passing, 192 rushing), the sixth-highest single-game output in school history, and totaled 192 yards, a school record for rushing yards in a game by a quarterback.

ASSISTANT COACH BIOGRAPHIES

In 2012, Smith inherited a fifth-year senior in quarterback Matt Scott who was perfectly suited to run the Wildcat offense. With Scott as sig-nal caller, Arizona was 7-5 as he orchestrated come-from-behind wins against No. 10 USC and Nevada in the Gildan New Mexico Bowl. Earn-ing second-team All-Pac-12 honors, Scott led the conference in yards per game with 301.7 and ranked No. 2 in the league in total yardage.

UA led the Pac-12 in total offense for four straight weeks (weeks 6-9) and ranked as high as fourth nationally in weeks three, seven and nine. Arizona’s offensive triple-threat attack featured a 3,000-yard passer (Scott - 3,620 yards), a 1,500-yard rusher (Ka’Deem Carey - 1,929 yards) and a 1,000-yard receiver (Austin Hill - 1,364 yards).

Smith coached quarterbacks under Rodriguez at Michigan from 2008 to 2010 and at West Virginia in 2007. He helped develop two of the most explosive signal callers in Rodriguez’ offensive system, WVU’s Pat White and Michigan’s Denard Robinson.

Smith was offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach at South Flor-ida in 2005 and 2006 after starting on the staff there as passing game coordinator and quarterbacks coach in 2001.

Smith began his coaching career as offensive coordinator at Franklin High School in West Virginia (1997) before joining the college ranks as offensive coordinator at Urbana (Ohio) University (1998-99) and offen-sive coordinator at West Virginia Tech (2000).

He also spent time as a graduate assistant at Clemson in 2001, working with offensive coordinator Rodriguez and relocated with Rodriguez as a graduate assistant member of the coach’s initial staff at WVU for a few months before taking a full time position at USF.

He played under Rodriguez as a quarterback at Glenville State from 1993-96, where he earned his undergraduate degree in 1997. He was an All-American and team captain his senior year.

Smith received a master’s degree from Urbana University (Ohio) in 2000. He and his wife, Charlene, have a son, Alex, and a daughter, Sa-sha.

Theron Aych enters his first season on Rich Rodriguez’s staff following his hiring as the program’s wide receivers coach on Feb. 25, 2017. Aych joins the Wildcats after spending the 2016 season at UTEP and the 2015 season at Angelo State, where he was a finalist for the Division II Amer-ican Football Coaches Association (AFCA) Assistant Coach of the Year award.

In his only season with the run-oriented Miners that boasted an All-American running back and offensive lineman, Aych coached the wide receiver unit that helped haul in 21 receiving touchdowns, the most for the program since 2010. The balance provided in the pass game allowed UTEP to improve its per-game scoring by nearly a touch-down from 20.7 points per game in 2015 to 26.3 points per game last season. Additionally, receiver Terry Juniel was named honorable men-tion All-Conference USA.

Before his stint in El Paso, Texas, Aych spent five seasons at Angelo State where he served as the offensive coordinator and assistant head coach from 2011-2015.

Under Aych, the Rams’ offense put up staggering numbers in 2015, leading the nation (Division II) in total offense with over 560 yards per game and ranking seventh in points per game (42.5). Senior quarter-back Kyle Washington, under Aych’s tutelage, threw for 3,691 yards (Angelo State single-season record), ranking sixth in the nation. Wash-ington registered 27 passing scores and only nine interceptions. Wash-ington also rushed for 831 yards and 15 scores as he led the nation in total offense and broke ASU’s single-season record for total yards with 4,522. Washington was named the Lone Star Conference Offensive Player of the Year.

In 2014, Angelo State averaged 39.4 points per contest, while racking up 469.7 yards of total offense per game. The Rams registered a 9-3 overall record in 2014. Washington set a single-season school record by throwing for 34 touchdowns and being the first Ram in history to throw for over 3,000 yards with 3,236.

Aych previously coached four seasons at Central Missouri in the Mid-America Intercollegiate Athletics Association. With the Mules, Aych coached current Tennessee Titans tight end Delanie Walker, who was drafted as a wide receiver in the 2006 draft after an impressive collegiate career.

Prior to coaching the Mules, Aych spent two seasons at the University of Washington on the other side of the line of scrimmage, assisting with the outside linebackers and punters as a defensive graduate as-sistant. Aych coached two Huskies – linebackers Marquis Cooper and Greg Carothers – who signed NFL contracts. Cooper was an All-Pac-10 selection in 2003 and a fourth-round round selection of the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

While at the University of Houston, Aych coached running back Joffrey Reynolds, who was named the C-USA Offensive Player of the Year by Sporting News. Reynolds rushed for over 1,500 yards in 2002.

The Zachary, La., native has also coached at the junior college level – Fort Scott (Kan.) Community College – and the high school level at Aberdeen (S.D.) Central.

Aych earned three letters as a wide receiver at Northern State Universi-ty in Aberdeen and was an All-Northern Sun Intercollegiate Conference Honorable mention selection. He earned a degree in sociology and criminal justice from NSU in 1996. Aych and his wife, Gwyn, have two children, Tommy and Katelyn.

ASSISTANT COACH BIOGRAPHIESMichalczik was also the offensive line coach for seven seasons at Mon-tana State from 1992-98 after beginning his coaching career with two campaigns (1990-91) as the defensive line coach at Miami (Fla.). The Hurricanes won the 1991 national title after posting an unbeaten 12-0 season. In 1990, Miami was ranked fourth nationally and finished with a 9-2 mark. Under Michalczik’s tutelage, Russell Maryland was the 1990 Outland Trophy winner and a first-round draft pick.

He is a 1988 graduate of Washington State, including an appearance in the 1988 Aloha Bowl as a member of the Cougars’ offensive line. He earned three letters as an offensive guard in Pullman, earning hon-orable mention All-Pac-10 and honorable mention All-America honors from The Sporting News as a senior.

A native of Port Angeles, Wash., Michalczik and his wife, Jennifer, have two sons, Max and Chase. Max is a freshman football player at North-ern Arizona University.

Marcel Yates enters his second season on staff following his hire as defensive coordinator on Jan. 19, 2016. Yates worked with Arizona’s linebackers in 2016, but has assumed oversight of the cornerbacks in 2017, a position of significant familiarity for the veteran coordinator.

Arizona’s defense in 2016 was young, undersized and battled injuries throughout the year. Still, in his first season working with linebackers, Yates developed Paul Magloire Jr. – a converted safety – into the team’s leading tackler with 81 total stops and 5.5 for loss. Magloire Jr. signed a free agent contract with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

Yates and his staff worked hard to hit the recruiting trail during his first full season with the Wildcats. The fruits of that labor are expected to be realized sooner rather than later with a talented incoming class of defenders joining a group of returnees that featured numerous under-class starters last season. An immediate boost came from the arrival of mid-year enrollees Tony Fields II, Jose Ramirez and Sione Taufahe-ma, each of whom participated in spring drills. With additional rein-forcements arriving over the summer, Arizona can expect to see only a

Veteran collegiate and NFL assistant coach Jim Michalczik is in his fifth season at Arizona. He joined head coach Rich Rodriguez’s staff on Jan. 15, 2013, as the Wildcats’ offensive line coach. He’s coached at three Pac-12 schools and in 13 bowl games.

Under Michalczik’s guidance, Arizona’s rushing attack has remained on of the most potent in the Pac-12 Conference. In 2016, the Wildcats led the conference with 235.0 rushing yards per game, highlighted by a school record 511 yards in a Territorial Cup victory over Arizona State. In that game, UA produced three 100-yard rushers for only the second time in program history.

Arizona’s offensive line proved more than reliable in 2015, while injuries to the quarterback and running back position would otherwise have created some uncertainty. But Michalczik’s unit replaced four-year starters at both tackle spots, plus a two-year starter at center without missing a beat. The Wildcats rolled up 222.3 yards per game on the ground, gained 272.6 through the air and averaged 37.4 points per game.

In 2014, Arizona’s offensive line blocked for the Wildcats to average 463.6 yards of offense per game and 34.5 points per contest. Center Steven Gurrola earned second-team All-Pac-12 honors while Jacob Alsadek was a USA Today Freshman All-American. Running back Nick Wilson (1,375 yards) and quarterback Anu Solomon (3,793 yards) set school freshman records in their respective categories. Additionally, Solomon led FBS freshmen in total passing yards.

Under Michalczik’s guidance, the Wildcats’ offensive line blocked for Ka’Deem Carey’s 1,885 yards and 19 touchdowns in 2013. Additionally, B.J. Denker threw for 2,516 yards and 16 scores. Arizona’s offense aver-aged 33.5 points per game, totaled 311 first downs and averaged 458.5 yards of offense per game.

Michalczik came to Arizona after spending nine seasons over two stints on the California coaching staff from 2002-08 and 2011-12, serving his first seven campaigns with the Golden Bears as the offensive line coach and his final two as the team’s offensive coordinator, in addition to his offensive line duties. He was a member of the Oakland Raiders staff in 2009-10, serving as offensive line coach.

He has a combined 27 campaigns of experience in the collegiate and professional coaching ranks, including a total of eight winning seasons and seven bowl games with the Bears. The play of Cal’s offensive line under Michalczik’s direction from 2002-08 and again in 2011 and 2012 was a key factor to the Bears posting a 69-45 (.605) record during the nine-year period.

He played a key role in the Oakland turnaround in 2010, as the Raiders went undefeated in the AFC West. The Oakland offense ranked second in the NFL in rushing (155.9 ypg), sixth in scoring (25.6 ppg) and 10th in total offense (354.6 ypg). Tackle Jared Veldheer was chosen to several all-rookie teams.

Cal’s rushing attack that produced 1,000-yard rushers in eight of Mi-chalczik’s nine seasons was a key factor in the success of the offense during his tenure. In 2004, J.J. Arrington set a single-season school record with 2,018 rushing yards and ranked second in the nation in rushing yards per game (168.17 ypg), with Michalczik’s offensive line clearing the way. Arrington was also the eighth-leading vote-getter in the Heisman Trophy race that year. The Bears were ranked in the top 10 nationally in rushing offense in both 2004 (256.75 ypg, 6th) and 2005 (235.25 ypg, 9th), while leading the Pac-10 in both 2003 (168.29 ypg) and 2004.

Current NFL players Alex Mack and Mitchell Schwartz (Cleveland) and Brian De La Puente (Chicago) are among the 13 former offensive line-men that played for Michalczik to be signed by NFL teams. Others that spent time on NFL rosters include Justin Cheadle, Mike Gibson, Aaron Merz, Ryan O’Callaghan, Marvin Philip, Erik Robertson, Brian Schwen-ke, Mike Tepper, Scott Tercero and Mark Wilson.

Prior to joining Cal in 2002, he spent three seasons at Oregon State coaching the tight ends, while also serving as special teams coordinator and an assistant coach on the offensive line. The Beavers posted their first winning season in 29 years in his first campaign in Corvallis in 1999.

ASSISTANT COACH BIOGRAPHIES

half-dozen players in their final year of eligibility on the defensive side of the ball, with some 30-plus others rounding out the depth chart.

Yates previously served as the defensive coordinator at Boise State where he led an attacking-style defense with a reputation for forcing turnovers the past two seasons. Under Yates, the Broncos’ defense ranked highly in notable categories, including being one of two teams nationally to post top-10 finishes for turnovers forced each of the last two years. His 2014 unit also ranked seventh nationally in both tackles for loss and sacks, while the 2015 squad turned in the fifth-best rush defense, 12th total defense and 18th-best scoring defense. The Bron-cos earned a pair of bowl victories along with the 2014 Mountain West championship in Yates’ tenure as a coordinator.

In his entire time as an assistant at Boise State, the Broncos won seven conference championships in nine seasons and appeared in a bowl game each year. The Broncos won five of the bowl games, including both the 2007 and 2010 Tostitos Fiesta Bowls.

During his final six seasons with Boise State, five defensive backs went on to be selected in the National Football League Draft: Gerald Alex-ander (Second Round, Detroit Lions, 2007), Orlando Scandrick (Fifth Round, Dallas Cowboys, 2008), Kyle Wilson (First Round, New York Jets, 2010), Brandyn Thompson (Seventh Round, Washington Redskins, 2011) and George Iloka (Fifth Round, Cincinnati Bengals, 2012).

A graduate of Boise State and an assistant coach with the Broncos from 2003-11, Yates returned to his alma mater in 2014 following a two-year stint as the co-defensive coordinator at Texas A&M. During his time in College Station, the Aggies concluded the 2012 season ranked fifth nationally in both the Associated Press and USA Today Coaches Polls, and won 11 games for the first time since 1998. The Aggies went 9-4 in 2013, finishing the season ranked No. 18 in each poll.

Yates, who played defensive back for the Broncos from 1996-99, was Boise State’s cornerbacks coach from 2003-05, before taking over the entire secondary from 2006-11. He added defensive pass game coordi-nator responsibilities in 2011, before moving on to Texas A&M.

While with the Broncos in his initial stint as an assistant, Boise State won seven conference championships in nine seasons and appeared in a bowl game each year. The Broncos won five of the bowl games, including both the 2007 and 2010 Tostitos Fiesta Bowls.

Prior to his first job at Boise State in 2003, Yates was an assistant sec-ondary coach at Montana State from 2001-02. In his second season with the Bobcats, Montana State won its first Big Sky Conference Championship and earned its first NCAA Division I-AA Playoff appear-ance in 18 years.

Yates earned his bachelor’s degree in social science from Boise State in 2000. Following his senior season, he earned the team’s Denny Erickson Award for Valor.

JAHMILE ADDAE Assistant Coach (Safeties) Year at Arizona: 6thYears in Coaching: 11th

Jahmile Addae is in his sixth season as a member of the Arizona football staff. He was named assistant coach and cornerbacks coach on Dec. 21, 2016. Previously, he assisted with the day-to-day duties of program management with a focus on defensive film breakdown as a football analyst for the Wildcats.

In 2016, Addae took on the task of developing a young, yet talented unit of safe-ties. Much of the season, the Wildcats played three true freshmen in their back end, including regular starters Tristan Cooper and Isaiah Hayes. The duo com-bined for 73 tackles and established the foundation for a physical unit in coming years. Meanwhile, sophomore Demetrius Flannigan-Fowles led the unit with 78 tackles, including four for loss, while breaking up six pass and intercepting two others.

Addae also made his mark on the recruiting trail, helping the Wildcats haul in one of its most talented classes in years. Among the newcomers are several talented safeties expected to team up with the now seasoned group from a year ago. Further development in 2017 will have Arizona’s safeties as a unit to watch in the coming years.

He spent the 2010 and 2011 seasons as the running backs coach at the University of Cincinnati. At UC, Addae mentored All-BIG EAST Second-Team selection Isaiah Pead, who rushed for 1,029 yards while leading the conference in yards per carry (6.6), a mark that ranked him in the top-10 nationally. Pead, who averaged 93.6 yards per game, was UC’s first 1,000-yard rusher in almost a decade and only the Bearcats’ seventh all-time. Addae was recognized by Rivals.com as one of the top-10 recruiters in the BIG EAST Conference.

Before coaching the Bearcats, Addae served as UC’s Director of Player Develop-ment. He also managed many of UC’s off-the-field responsibilities, including the highly-successful Cats In The Community program.

Addae arrived at UC after two seasons as a defensive graduate assistant at the University of Michigan where he worked with the Wolverines’ defensive second-ary and scout team offense. Addae was a graduate assistant in the football video department at West Virginia University in 2007.

He was a four-year starter, two-time captain and three-time All-BIG EAST per-former at West Virginia. He was a finalist for the 2005 Ronnie Lott Trophy and was named to the watch list for the 2005 Jim Thorpe Award. He was selected for the Senior Bowl in 2005 and participated in the NFL Combine.

A native of Tampa, Fla., Addae signed a free agent contract with his hometown Tampa Bay Buccaneers in 2005 and spent the end of the season with the India-napolis Colts.

ASSISTANT COACH BIOGRAPHIES

Vince Amey enters his second season as the defensive line coach after previously serving in other roles since joining Rich Rodriguez’s staff in 2012. Most recently, Amey was a defensive analyst in 2015.

Amey’s first season with Arizona’s defensive line saw him develop a young and undersized unit. Hard-nosed Parker Zellers continued to be a force in the middle, forcing two fumbles and racking up three sacks despite his undersized frame. Walk-ons Justin Belknap and Lar-ry Tharpe Jr. emerged as two promising players at defensive end in coming years, combining for 32 tackles, five for losses, along with five pass breakups. Senior team captain Sani Fuimaono capped his career by leading the front line with 19 stops.

Scott Boone enters his first season on Rich Rodriguez’s staff following his hiring as linebackers coach on Dec. 20, 2016. Boone joins the Wild-cats after serving the last three seasons as defensive coordinator at the University of Nevada.

With more than 30 years coaching experience, Boone will coach line-backers for the Wildcats, a unit he also mentored the last three sea-sons at Nevada where he guided a defensive resurgence. The Wolf Pack yielded 34.4 points per game in 2013, but never allowed more than 30 points per game in the three seasons under Boone’s direction.

The 2014-15 seasons were particularly successful for Boone. His initial

Wolf Pack defense allowed 27.2 points and 447.1 yards allowed, while also making statistical strides in scoring defense, rushing defense, total defense, sacks, tackles for loss, interceptions, fumbles recovered, third down and red zone defense from the year prior.

Boone set the bar even higher in year two, as Nevada improved to just 405 yards and 26.8 points allowed per game. His efforts in the 2015 sea-son culminated with a victory in the inaugural NOVA Home Loans Ari-zona Bowl, which marked Nevada’s fifth all-time bowl victory. Boone’s unit again improved in total defense and scoring defense, and grabbed 13 interceptions and recovered eight fumbles to help Nevada rank 15th in the nation in turnover margin.

Player development was notable under Boone’s leadership. In 2015, he helped senior DE Ian Seau, who led the conference and ranked 19th in the nation with 10.0 sacks, earn first team All-Mountain West honors. Senior DE Lenny Jones also earned second team All-MW accolades with 47 tackles and seven sacks that season. Boone’s development of true freshman DB Dameon Baber saw the rookie rank seventh in the nation with six interceptions on the season en route to earning All-MW hon-ors.

Before he joined the Wolf Pack, Boone enjoyed a successful 10-year tenure at William and Mary, where he was a finalist for the FCS Coordi-nator of the Year award after guiding the Tribe defense to No. 2 in the nation in scoring defense and No. 8 nationally in total defense along with the 15th spot in third-down defense in the FCS.

Boone was William and Mary’s defensive coordinator for the last three seasons of his tenure and the linebackers coach for the last seven years. He also coached defensive backs for three seasons with the Tribe.

Prior to his 10 seasons at William and Mary, Boone was the head coach for seven seasons at Randolph-Macon, compiling a record of 37-33, in-cluding a 22-18 ledger in conference action. In 1997, Boone guided the Yellow Jackets to a share of the ODAC title, going 4-1 in league play and 8-2 overall, and garnered Richmond Touchdown Club and VaSID Small College Coach of the Year honors.

While at RMC, Boone coached 34 players to First-Team All-ODAC hon-ors in his seven seasons. Also, 14 team and individual school records were broken under Boone.

Prior to his stint at RMC, Boone was an assistant coach at his alma ma-ter, Wabash College in Crawfordsville, Ind., from 1983 to 1996. In Boone’s 14 years as an assistant, Wabash posted an 81-38-2 record.

Brian Knorr enters his first season on the Arizona coaching staff after he was hired as the program’s special teams coordinator on March 6, 2017. He also has responsibilities coaching the STUD position, a hybrid de-fensive end and linebacker role on the frontline of UA’s base defense.

Knorr joins the Arizona program with 25 years of collegiate coaching experience that includes four seasons as the head coach at Ohio Uni-versity, along with six seasons of defensive coordinator responsibilities at Ohio, Wake Forest and Indiana. Most recently, Knorr spent the 2016 season as a quality control assistant on Urban Meyer’s staff at Ohio State University.

Prior to the one-year stint at Ohio State, Knorr was the defensive coor-dinator a Indiana during the 2014-15 seasons, where he tutored the defensive ends and outside linebackers. In his first season, the Hoo-siers made significant improvements in scoring defense (+6.0), rushing yardage (+55.1) and total yardage per game (+94.1), as well as third down conversion percentage (+10.4), sacks (+3) and tackles for loss (+13). His second season helped Indiana to a bowl berth and a six-win season for the first time in seven years.

Before his two-year stay at Indiana, Knorr served in several coaching roles at Wake Forest over six seasons. In 2008 he joined the Demon Deacons staff as wide receivers coach where he worked on the offen-sive side of the ball for three years, then switched sides to become co-defensive coordinator and inside linebackers coach in 2011. He was named defensive coordinator in 2012 when he continued to coach the inside linebackers, then oversaw the outside linebackers in his final sea-son of 2013.

As the defensive coordinator at Wake Forest, the Demon Deacons pro-duced some staunch numbers. In 2013, Wake Forest allowed only 24.1 points per game (38th nationally), 143.2 rushing yards (34th), 223.0 passing yards and 366.2 total yards (32nd) per game.

The Bobcats’ defense ranked in the top five in the Mid-American Con-ference in scoring, rushing and total defense every year in his time as coordinator, and five players earned all-conference accolades. Addi-tionally, Knorr oversaw Ohio’s special teams, including in 2001 when the Bobcats led the NCAA in punting. Punter Dave Zastudil earned first team All-America honors that season and went on to an 11-year profes-sional career with the Baltimore Ravens, Cleveland Browns and Arizona Cardinals. He is one of seven players overall coached by Knorr to go on to professional careers.Knorr began his coaching career at his alma mater, the United States Air Force Academy, serving as assistant offensive line coach, head junior varsity coach and administrative assistant to the head coach from 1992-94.

CHUCK CECIL Senior Defensive Analyst Year at Arizona: 1stYears in Collegiate Coaching: 1st

One of the most revered players in program history, Chuck Cecil enters his first season on staff at Arizona as the senior defensive analyst. His hiring was announced by head coach Rich Rodriguez on July 28, 2017.

A 15-year coaching veteran in the National Football League, Cecil steps aside from on-field coaching duties with the Wildcats. His role will be assisting Rodriguez and the defensive staff in areas of overall organi-zation, scouting, film breakdown, analysis and other game preparation responsibilities.

A two-time First Team Academic All-America selection (1986-87), Cecil played for Arizona from 1984 to 1987, first under the late Larry Smith and then under former head coach Dick Tomey for his final year. He began as a recruited walk-on from Helix High School in San Diego, Calif., and finished his UA career as one of the Pac-10’s noted and fear-less safeties before later being inducted in the College Football Hall of Fame in 2009.

A consensus All-American in 1987, Cecil was the Aloha Bowl MVP and a two-time first-team all-conference selection, plus earned second-team honors as a sophomore. He was named Pac-10 Defensive Player of the Year in 1987 and Pac-10 Player of the Week on three occasions.

Off the field Cecil was a three-time Pac-10 All-Academic selection and culminated his education as a recipient of the NCAA VI Award, one of the nation’s top scholar-athlete citations. He was named Arizona’s male winner of the Pac-10 Conference Medal.Cecil finished his UA career with the then No. 1 mark in passes defend-ed, 38, which currently is second to Michael Jolivette’s 44 from 2000 to 2003. He led the Wildcats with 80 solo tackles his senior year and also posted the school record that season with four interceptions at Stanford.

Today, Cecil still ranks No. 7 on Arizona’s all-time tackles chart with a total of 392. Additionally, he holds the Arizona career record with 21 in-terceptions and among those returned one 100 yards for a touchdown against Arizona State in 1986, a play that likely rests atop many UA partisans’ choice as the single-most electrifying and revered moment in UA football history.

After his storied collegiate career, Cecil was selected by the Green Bay Packers in the fourth round of the 1988 NFL Draft. He played in Green Bay through the 1992 season when he was voted to the 1993 NFL Pro Bowl, before moving on to the Phoenix Cardinals in 1993 and later the Houston Oilers for the 1995 season. The safety finished a seven-year professional career with 461 tackles, 16 interceptions and one touch-down.

Cecil accepted his first professional coaching job in 2001 with Jeff Fisher and the Tennessee Titans, where he served as a defensive assistant and quality control coach for three seasons. He was promoted to coach the safeties and nickelbacks from 2004-06, before taking over as defensive backs coach in the 2007-08 seasons. Later, Cecil was named defensive coordinator for the Titans in 2009-10. The next stop in Cecil’s career took him to St. Louis, again working under Fisher. Cecil was the Rams’ secondary coach for five seasons.

Cecil is married to Carrie Gerlach Cecil, a native Arizonan who has es-tablished a successful communications career creating literary, televi-sion, film, online, business and live content. The couple met in their time at UA and have one daughter, Charli. They are heavily involved in community service, including hosting the Cecil Family Golden Hour Golf Classic for the UMC Level One Trauma Center in Tucson, Arizona and raise monies for Eve’s Angels, and Ordinary Hero, among other organizations.

MIKE DIANGELO Defensive Analyst Year at Arizona: 4thYears in Coaching: 11th

Mike DiAngelo is in his fourth season on staff at Arizona after serviing the previous three seasons as the defensive graduate assistant where he worked primarily with the safeties while assisting with all facets of the defense.

He joined Rich Rodriguez’s staff in spring 2013 after spending six years on the coaching staff at Washington and Jefferson College. During his tenure with the Presidents, DiAngelo served as secondary coach, quar-terback and receivers coach and also served as special teams coordi-nator.

DiAngelo helped W&J earn the school’s 23rd PAC Championship and 22nd NCAA playoff appearance during the 2012 season. As special teams coordinator, he played an important role in the development of Eric Eberle, who became one of the region’s top kickers/punters. Eberle booted 11 field goals (second in school history) and was an All-PAC First-Team selection. W&J led the conference in kickoff coverage with a 40.6-yard advantage per game on their opponents.

In 2011, DiAngelo helped the Presidents rank 37th in the nation in total defense (299.3 ypg). DiAngelo also coached wide receiver David Ravi-da, who finished his career as the Presidents’ all-time leading receiver with 191 catches.

He spent the 2006 season as an assistant football coach at Division II Concord University (W.Va.) where he worked primarily as the team’s quarterbacks coach. He also assisted with the special teams units.

As a junior, the Steubenville, Ohio native threw for 1,249 yards and eight touchdowns. During his sophomore season in 2003, the Yellow Jackets earned a bid to the NCAA Division III playoffs.

B.J. Denker has returned to his alma mater for his first season as an offensive analyst on Rich Rodriguez’s staff. Denker previously worked as an offensive graduate assistant at Texas A&M following his playing career in Tucson.

In his role at Arizona, Denker works closely with the quarterbacks as an aid to co-offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach Rod Smith. He also serves as the program’s director for junior college recruiting in Arizona and California.

At Texas A&M, Denker worked closely with Aggies’ receivers in 2015, a unit that included freshman All-American Christian Kirk. In 2016, Den-ker assisted with quarterbacks, a position that saw the talented Trevor Knight lead the Aggies to wins in seven of their first eight contests before a late-season injury. The passing prowess also produced a 1,000-yard receiver in Josh Reynolds, who was a second-team All-SEC selec-tion.

As a quarterback, Denker was electric with both his arm and feet. A transfer from Cerritos College, Denker was the second-string quarter-back during Rodriguez’s first season in Tucson and the starter a year later. In the two-year career, Denker racked up with 1,023 yards and 14 touchdowns as a runner, while passing for 2,775 yards and 19 touch-downs. He completed 62-percent of his career passes and threw only eight interceptions on 418 attempts.

Denker’s senior season saw him start all 13 contests and lead Arizona to its second-straight eight-win season. The highlight was a stunning No-vember upset of then-No. 5 Oregon in which Denker produced one

UNIVERSITY PRESIDENT/DIRECTOR OF ATHLETICS

ROBERT C. ROBBINS, M.D.President, The University of Arizona First Year22nd UA President

Dr. Robert C. Robbins says he landed his dream job when he assumed his position as the 22nd president of the University of Arizona on June 1, 2017. He spent his first few months meeting students, faculty, staff, alumni and elected officials across the country and in Mexico while also exploring the campus and the state.

“After I was named president and moved to Tucson, I started making visits to campus when I could talk with students, faculty, staff and even visitors on an informal basis, and I found out that the community of people who live and work here make the UA really special,” said Presi-dent Robbins. “The UA’s history of collaborative research and learning is a great foundation.”

President Robbins is already working to advance the priorities of the University, which include ensuring a first-class student experience, leadership in health sciences teaching and research, and enhanced marketing and branding. He is initiating an inclusive strategic planning process, engaging campus, community and alumni stakeholders, and is also filling key leadership roles.

“We have an incredible team of champions and — as I’ve said — I want to help create a championship team,” said Robbins, who often is quot-ed using sports analogies. “We will strengthen existing relationships and build new collaborations to take the University of Arizona to even higher levels of achievement, working to solve the 21st century’s most complex, global challenges.”

When asked what UA alumni can do to assist him in making the Univer-sity of Arizona an even greater presence, President Robbins is quick to answer.

“Be engaged. I am struck by how deeply and strongly our alumni feel connected to their UA experience.”

Before joining UA, Robbins served as president and CEO of the Texas Medical Center (TMC) in Houston from 2012 to 2017. In this role, he significantly enhanced TMC’s commitment to collaboration, introduc-ing five cross-institutional research initiatives centered on innovation, genomics, regenerative medicine, health policy and clinical research.

Prior to his time in Houston, Dr. Robbins served as professor and chair-man of the Department of Cardiothoracic Surgery at Stanford Uni-versity School of Medicine, founding director of the Stanford Cardio-vascular Institute, president of the International Society of Heart and Lung Transplantation, president of the Western Thoracic Surgical As-sociation, president of the American Heart Association Western States Affiliate, president of the Bay Area Society of Thoracic Surgeons, and chair of the American Heart Association Cardiovascular Surgery and Anesthesia Council, among other roles. In 2016 he served as president of the American Heart Association Southwest Affiliate.

An internationally recognized cardiac surgeon, Robbins has focused his clinical efforts on acquired cardiac diseases with a special expertise in the surgical treatment of congestive heart failure and cardiothoracic transplantation. His research work includes the investigation of stem cells for cardiac regeneration, cardiac transplant allograft vasculopa-thy, bioengineered blood vessels, and automated vascular anastomotic devices. Robbins is the author of more than 300 peer-reviewed articles and a former guest editor of the Circulation Surgical Supplement.

While at TMC, Robbins also served on the Houston branch of the Dallas Federal Reserve board, the board of directors of the Welch Founda-tion, and the American Heart Association Southwest Affiliate in 2016. He served on an independent blue ribbon committee to evaluate the Veterans Affairs health system, and the World Affairs Council of Greater Houston honored him as the 2016 International Citizen of the Year.

His educational background includes a B.S. in chemistry from Millsaps College, medical degree from the University of Mississippi, general sur-gical training at the University of Mississippi, cardiothoracic training at Stanford University, postdoctoral research at Columbia University and the National Institutes of Health, and congenital heart surgical fellow-ships at Emory University and Royal Children’s Hospital.

DAVE HEEKEVice President & Director, Athletics First Year

Dave Heeke enters his first year as the Director of Athletics, continuing an extensive 30-year career that has encompassed all aspects of the field including 11 years as the Athletics Director at Central Michigan University.

Heeke (pronounced Hee-key) was named Arizona’s 13th Director of Athletics in February of 2017 and officially started in that role on April 1, 2017. Heeke has developed a wide-ranging understanding of college athlet-ics that includes a number of vital roles. He has experience in depart-ment leadership, budget development, fundraising, compliance and sport supervision, among other areas. Heeke has also been heavily in-volved in facilities master planning and funding, as well as university and external relations. While Athletics Director at CMU, Heeke instilled his vision of a “Cham-pionship Culture,” which included athletic success, academic excel-lence, national media exposure, record fundraising, and a commitment to facilities. The department was twice honored with the Cartwright Award, which recognizes the Mid-American Conference’s top overall institution based on excellence in academics, athletics and citizenship. CMU earned the Reese Trophy, which honors the top MAC men’s ath-letic program, three times, and finished as the runner-up for the Jaco-by Trophy, which honors the top MAC women’s athletic program, four times under Heeke’s leadership. In addition, the football program won three MAC titles and qualified for bowl games in eight of his 11 years, while both men’s and women’s basketball programs won conference championships. Heeke is a nationally recognized leader among college athletics direc-tors. He was appointed to the NCAA Division I Athletic Director Advi-sory Group in June of 2013. One of just 11 Division I Athletic Directors nationwide to be selected for the appointment, the group meets pe-riodically with NCAA President Mark Emmert and his staff to provide feedback and perspective on issues affecting DI athletics. Heeke has also been a member of the NCAA Division I Baseball Committee and the Division I Football Issues Committee. He twice served on the base-ball committee, first from 2006-08 and again from 2010-15, serving as the chair for the 2014-15 season. He was also a part of the football committee from 2008-13, serving as chair in 2012-13. During Heeke’s 18 years at the University of Oregon, he assisted the athletics director with the daily operation of the Ducks’ overall athletic budget and 17 sports. Heeke served on the AD’s executive staff and was responsible for strategic planning and financial models. In addition to representing the AD at University and conference meetings, he man-aged all facets of internal operations, while being responsible for rev-enue generation through external operations units. He assisted in the $95 million football stadium expansion as well as the construction of a $14 million football practice facility and a $5 million soccer stadium. An East Lansing, Mich., native, Heeke received a bachelor’s degree from Albion College in 1985 and a master’s degree from Ohio State Univer-sity in 1987. At Albion, he was a co-captain of the baseball team and a member of the club hockey team. He was a three-sport athlete at East Lansing High School and received the Distinguished Alumni Award from the East Lansing Educational Foundation in 2007. Heeke and his wife, Liz, have three boys, Ryan, Max and Zach.

THE UNIVERSITY OF ARIZONA/PAC-12 CONFERENCE

The University of ArizonaThe University of Arizona (UA) is a place without limits—where teach-ing, research, service, and innovation merge to improve lives in Arizona and beyond. We aren’t afraid to ask bigger questions, to get better answers. Established in 1885, the University of Arizona, the state’s super land-grant university with two medical schools, produces graduates who are real-world ready through its 100% Engagement initiative. Recognized as a global leader, the UA is also a leader in research, bringing more than $606 million in research investment each year, and ranking 20th among all public universities. The UA is advancing the frontiers of in-terdisciplinary scholarship and entrepreneurial partnerships, and is a member of the Association of American Universities, the 62 leading public and private research universities. It benefits the state with an estimated economic impact of $8.3 billion annually. We’re innovators and discoverers. Establishing Arizona’s first university in the middle of the Sonoran Des-ert was a bold move. But our founders were fearless, and we have never lost that spirit. To this day, we’re revolutionizing the fields of space sciences, optics, biosciences, medicine, arts and humanities, business, technology transfer, and many others. Since it was founded, the UA has grown to cover more than 380 acres in central Tucson, a rich breeding ground for discovery. Where else in the world can you find an astronomical observatory mir-ror lab under a football stadium? An entire ecosystem under a glass dome? Who else is bringing back samples from asteroids? Visit our campus just once, and you’ll quickly understand why the UA is a uni-versity unlike any other. Here, “Bear Down” is more than just a motto. Before UA student body president and revered football quarterback John “Button” Salmon died in 1926, his last words to his teammates were, “Tell them ... tell the team to bear down.” Whether it’s academics, athletics, or research, we’ve adopted the stance that when the going gets tough, the tough #BearDown. Our curiosity knows no bounds. As a leading-edge public research university, we’re inspired to explore humanity’s most fundamental questions—about science, medicine, the arts, and business. Our faculty includes members of esteemed national academies, Pulitzer and Nobel Prize winners, White House Champions of Change, and celebrated thought leaders in numerous disciplines. We are leading projects that will change how we see the world, such as the OSIRIS-REx mission, which will scoop samples from a near-Earth asteroid in 2020. We’re partners with the community. Whether we’re teaming up with local schools to improve K–12 ed-ucation, or working with rural communities to improve the health of residents, we’re helping society meet its grand challenges. The UA’s Tech Parks are where dynamic innovators and business leaders work side by side to test and develop new technologies. The Banner – University Medical Center is a 479-bed hospital that has been ranked among the nation’s best hospitals by US News & World Report for more than a decade. Between the UA’s research, outreach, and the UA’s Tech Parks, we generate $8.3 billion of economic activity in Arizona, annu-ally.

Our graduates are accomplished. At the UA, 100 percent of our undergraduates will have the opportu-nity to apply their knowledge and act on their dreams through intern-ships, fieldwork, community service, student leadership, the developing of original works, and by collaborating within research opportunities. Our mission is to graduate students who are sought after by the best employers and postgraduate programs, and who are ready to embark on meaningful careers. Equipped with skills, knowledge, experience and the entrepreneurial spirit they gain at the UA, our students become highly skilled members of society who lead with determination, innovate without limits, and create companies that generate more jobs, exponentially benefitting our state, our nation, and the world. Our alumni include astronauts and actors; Grammy, Tony, Emmy, and Oscar winners; media stars; Olympic athletes; Fortune 500 CEOs; public servants; Nobel scientists; inventors, and best-selling authors. We’re thinkers and doers. From the heart of the Southwest to the edges of the universe, there are no limits to how far we can reach. We’ll never stop pushing to make sense of the world and to find ways to make it better. At the University of Arizona, we have the power to make a difference. Bigger Questions. Better Answers. Bear Down

The Pac-12 ConferenceBuilt on a firm foundation of academic excellence and superior athlet-ic performance, the Pac-12 Conference renewed its undisputed claim as the Conference of Champions® in 2016-17, becoming the first con-ference to win 500 NC12AA Championships. Beyond the court’s and fields, the Pac-12’s accomplishments extend into the classrooms across 12 campuses, and outside its traditional geographic footprint into new corners around the world.

En route to becoming the first conference to win 500 NCAA Champi-onships, the Pac-12 led the nation in 2016-17 with 13 NCAA crowns. This haul adds to the an incredible 158 NCAA team titles since 1999-2000 and 300 since 1981-82, the start of women’s sports sponsorship, an average of over nine per year. Even more impressive has been the breadth of the Pac-12’s success with championships coming in 29 dif-ferent men’s and women’s sports. The Pac-12 has led or tied the nation in NCAA Championships in 51 of the last 57 years, the only exceptions being in 1980-81, 1988-89, 1990-91 and 1995-96 when the Conference finished second, and only twice finished third in 1998-99 and 2004-05.

For the 12th-consecutive year, the Pac-12 had the most or tied for the most NCAA titles of any conference in the country, winning at least six every year since 2000-01. No other conference has won double-digit NCAA crowns in a single year, the Pac-12 doing so nine times, including a record 14 in 1996-97.

Spanning over a century of outstanding athletics achievements, The Pac-12 has claimed 501 NCAA Championships (297 men’s, 174 women’s, 30 combined), nearly 200 more than the next league. It was also the first to win 400 championships then surpassed 450 when Colorado and Utah joined the league in 2010-11. Pac-12 members have won 297 NCAA team championships on the men’s side, 81 more than the next-closest conference. Men’s NCAA crowns have come at a phenomenal rate for the Pac-12 - 16 basketball titles by six schools, 54 tennis titles, 47 outdoor track & field crowns, and 28 baseball titles. Pac-12 members have won 25 of 47 NCAA titles in volleyball, 43 of 48 in water polo, 30 in skiing, and 24 in swimming & diving national championships.

Individually, the Conference has produced an impressive number of NCAA individual champions. Over 2,000 (2,292) individual crowns have been won by Pac-12 student-athletes over the years with 1,358 by male student-athletes. Student-athletes have also captured 185 individual ti-tles at combined championships (ie., skiing and fencing).

On the women’s side, the story is much the same. Since the NCAA be-gan conducting women’s championships 36 years ago, Pac-12 mem-bers have claimed at least four national titles in a single season on 26 occasions, including a current streak of 17-consecutive years, dat-ing back to 2000. Overall, the Pac-12 has captured 174 NCAA women’s titles, easily outdistancing the SEC, which is second with 100. Pac-12 members have dominated a number of sports, winning 23 softball ti-tles, 23 tennis crowns, 15 volleyball titles, 18 of the last 28 trophies in golf, and 15 in swimming & diving.

Pac-12 women student-athletes shine nationally on an individual basis, as well, having captured an unmatched 749 NCAA individual crowns, an average of over 20 championships per season, including 30 in 2016-17.

The Pac-12’s excellence is further proven in the annual Division I Lear-field Sports Directors’ Cup competition, the prestigious award that honors the best overall collegiate athletics programs in the country. Stanford won an unprecedented 23rd-consecutive Directors’ Cup in 2016-17 to lead the Conference.

ARIZONA QUICK HITS

• Arizona held BYU scoreless in the first quarter, which marked the ninth straight time the Cats have held their opponent scoreless in the first quarter of the season opener. The last time an opponent scored in the first quarter of a season opener was 2007 when BYU scored seven points in the first frame.

• Neither team got on the scoreboard in the first quarter. It’s the first time the Wildcats have played a scoreless first quarter since 2011 at Oregon State. Oregon State won that game 37-27.

• Senior receiver Nate Phillips had game-highs in catches (seven) and yards (69). Phillips has now caught at least one pass in 35 consecutive games dating back to his freshman season.

• Nick Wilson had 138 yards and two touchdowns on 17 carries. Wilson now has 11 100-yard rushing games in his career. It’s his first 100-yard rushing output since 9/26/15 against UCLA.

Scoring Summary

GLENDALE, Ariz. (AP) — Kalani Sitake faced a difficult decision in his debut as BYU’s coach. He could send out Rhett Almond to attempt a game-winning kick despite the sophomore missing a field and an extra point earlier in the game or turn to freshman Jake Oldroyd.

Sitake went with the freshman, with an assist to special teams coach Ed Lamb, and it worked out perfectly for the Cougars.

Oldroyd kicked a 33-yard field goal with 4 seconds left and Jamaal Williams ran for 162 yards, helping BYU rally to beat Arizona 18-16 on Saturday night.

‘’After the field goal and PAT we had earlier; I wouldn’t say it was a good time to do it, but I felt comfortable with Jake being in that position,’’ Sitake said.

BYU sputtered at times, but pulled out a victory to start a brutal opening stretch of the season.

Williams looked like he never left after sitting out last season due to personal reasons, carrying 29 times to spark BYU’s offense.

Taysom Hill was sharp after missing most of last season with a foot injury, hitting 21 of 29 passes for 202 yards and a touchdown.

It still was tight.

Arizona’s Nick Wilson scored on a 49-yard run with 1:26 left and the Wildcats failed on the 2-point conver-sion, giving the Cougars a final chance at University of Phoenix Stadium.

BYU started its final drive on its own 31 and quickly moved down the field to set up Oldroyd’s kick. The freshman split the uprights, raised his arms and ran toward BYU’s sideline after hitting a winning kick in his first career game .

‘’We were calm the whole time,’’ Hill said of the final drive. ‘’We knew we had a great opportunity.’’

Arizona went through a difficult fall camp, trying to focus on football after offensive lineman Zach Hemmila was found dead in his apartment on Aug. 8. Arizona coach Rich Rodriguez joined Hemmila’s family with athletic director Greg Byrne and offensive line coach Jim Michalczik for a pre-game ceremony that include a highlight video.

The Wildcats had plenty of questions heading into the season, the big one being who will start at quarter-back.

Anu Solomon got the start after a tight battle with sophomore Brandon Dawkins that started in spring, but struggled against BYU’s defensive pressure up front for most of the game.

‘’This one is on me,’’ said Solomon, who threw for 213 yards on 20-of-30 passing. ‘’I have to play better.’’

He wasn’t alone.

Wilson also scored on a 15-yard run in the fourth quarter and finished with 138 yards rushing, one of the few bright spots on Arizona’s offense. The Wildcats finished with 328 total yards, 190 of that coming in the fourth quarter.

Scoring Summary

TUCSON, Ariz. (AP) — Brandon Dawkins, starting in place of injured Anu Solomon, ran for two touch-downs and threw for another, all in the second half, and Arizona rallied from an 18-point deficit and escaped with a 31-21 victory over Grambling State on Saturday night.

The Wildcats (1-1), 45-point favorites, trailed 21-3 at halftime and looked in danger of their first-ever loss to an FCS school.

But the Tigers (1-1), who lost quarterback DeVante Kincade to injury late in the first half, committed six sec-ond-half turnovers, four of them in a row in the third quarter. Backup Trevon Cherry threw three intercep-tions and fumbled the ball away once.

Dawkins, a redshirt sophomore, completed 15 of 29 passes for 223 yards and gained 97 yards in 16 carries. He scored on runs of 21 and 2 yards and threw a 34-yard touchdown pass to Trey Griffey. Nick Wilson rushed for 116 yards, including an 11-yard TD run.

Kincade completed 15 of 19 passes for 193 yards and two scores before leaving with a leg injury with 2:38 to play in the second quarter. Grambling’s Chad Williams caught 13 passes for 152 yards,

Cody Ippolito recovered two fumbles, both leading to Arizona touchdowns, but was ejected from the game for targeting and must sit out the first half of next Saturday’s game against Hawaii.

The Tigers took the opening kickoff and went 81 yards in seven plays, Kincade throwing a 2-yard touchdown pass to Verlan Hunter.

The Wildcats had Grambling pinned in a third-and-29 situation at the Tigers 17 when Kincade threw short to Martez Carter, who raced down the sideline 49 yards to the 34. Six plays later, Kincade threw 26 yards to Devohn Lindsey for a touchdown that made it 14-0 with 11:55 left in the half.

Dawkins’ 42-yard run highlighted a drive to the Grambling 6 but, on fourth-and-1, Wilson was hit in the backfield and fumbled the ball away.

A 70-yard pass from Dawkins to Samajie Grant led to Arizona’s only first-half points, Josh Pollock’s 31-yard field goal.

INJURED QB

Kincade was sprinting into an open field for what looked to be a big gain when he came up lame, hopping out of bounds on one leg in front of the Arizona bench. He had to be carried from the field.

Cherry came on to direct another score. Carter 1-yard dive initially was ruled to come up inches short of the goal line. But a video review showed the ball was just over the line for a touchdown that put Grambling State up 21-3 with 16 seconds to play in the half.

THE TAKEAWAY

Grambling State looked like a SWAC contender when Kincade was in there and the extent of his injury could go a long way in determining how successful the Tigers are on from now on.

On Hawaii’s next possession, Demetrius Flannigan-Fowles intercepted Woolsey’s pass at the Hawaii 24. Tyrell Johnson scored on an end around on the next play and it was 20-0.

Hawaii got on the board with a 15-yard touchdown pass from Woolsey to freshman John Ursua with 1:10 to go in the first.

But the Wildcats pulled away with two second-quarter scores. Dawkins connected with Shun Brown on a 56-yard touchdown pass play and scored again on a six-yard run.

RAINBOW INFRACTIONS

Penalties hurt the Rainbows all night, none more than the holding call that negated Woolsey’s 48-yard touchdown pass to Dylan Colie. The score would have cut Arizona’s lead to 20-14 in the second quarter. Hawaii also had a touchdown pass called back in the fourth quarter due to an illegal formation call but eventually scored on the drive.

In all, Hawaii was penalized 12 times for 95 yards.

USS ARIZONA

One of six crewmen still living who were on the USS Arizona when it sank, 93-year-old Lauren Bruner, was on hand when the University of Arizona commemorated the 75th anniversary of the attack on Pearl Harbor.

Among other activities, the university auctioned off three No. 75 jerseys, three helmets and two helmet-jer-sey combinations, with profits going to the USS Arizona Mall Memorial.

ARIZONA QUICK HITS

• Senior receiver Nate Phillips had two catches for five yards on Saturday. He had a one-yard catch on Arizona’s first drive of the game, extending Phillips’ consecutive games with a reception to 37 games. He’s tied with Virginia’s Taquan Mizzell for the longest active streak by a receiver in a Power 5 conference. Overall, his streak is tied with Mizzell for the fifth-longest in all of FBS.

• Arizona quarterback Brandon Dawkins rushed for 176 yards on Saturday, marking the second straight game the quarterback has rushed for more than 100 yards in a game. Dawkins had a 79-yard touchdown rush, is the longest run by an Arizona quarterback since at least 1997. Jerrard Randall held the previous high with a 73-yard score last season against Northern Arizona.

Scoring Summary

TUCSON, Ariz. (AP) — Sophomore Brandon Dawkins rushed for 176 yards and threw for 167 more, but he and the Wildcats fell just short of a top-10 upset to start Pac-12 play. Ninth-ranked Washington prevailed, 35-28 in overtime at Arizona Stadium on Saturday night.

Washington’s Jake Browning hit Dante Pettis on a 4-yard touchdown in overtime, while Lavon Coleman ran for 181 yards for the Huskies.

Pettis made a tough grab in traffic on the first possession of overtime and Washington’s defense forced a turnover on downs to eke out the victory.

The Huskies (4-0, 1-0 Pac-12) had a hard time shaking Arizona (2-2, 0-1 Pac-12), which was down to its fourth-string running back after J.J. Taylor left in the third quarter with a left ankle injury.

Brandon Dawkins kept the Wildcats in it, dazzling with 176 yards and two touchdowns rushing, 167 yards and another score passing. He escaped what appeared to be a sack to hit Shun Brown on a 54-yard pass, then hit Josh Kern on a 3-yard TD pass with 17 seconds left to tie the game at 28.

Coleman kept the Huskies moving with Browning limited to passes underneath and scored on a 55-yard touchdown run in the fourth quarter. Browning finished 14 of 21 for 160 yards and two touchdowns.

THE TAKEAWAY

Washington: The Huskies faced adversity for the first time after three easy wins to open the season and survived. Washington failed to capitalize after manhandling the smaller Wildcats to start the second half -- a 171-12 advantage in total yards -- yet made the plays when it needed to down the stretch.

Arizona: The Wildcats’ quick-tempo offense went into a slumber for a long stretch of the second half and its defense was manhandled at times by the Huskies. Arizona failed when it still had a shot at the end, but the bigger concern is depth after seeing another running back go down with an injury.

UP NEXT

Washington: The Huskies host No. 7 Stanford next Friday in what should be just the fourth game ever be-tween top-10 teams at Husky Stadium.

ARIZONA QUICK HITS

• True freshman Khalil Tate made his debut at quarterback Saturday night. He finished 5 for 9 for 72 yards and a pair of touchdowns. He also rushed for 79 yards on 15 carries. Tate is the first true freshman to see time at quarterback for Arizona since Matt Scott in 2008. In Scott’s debut, he was 6 of 10 for 77 yards and a touchdown. He rushed for 48 yards and a touchdown in Arizona’s win over Idaho.

• Senior wide receiver Nate Phillips had a pair of catches Saturday and now has at least one catch in 38 straight games. That’s tied for the fifth-longest streak in the nation and tied for the longest by a player in a Power 5 conference. Phillips finished with two catches for 13 yards.

Scoring Summary

PASADENA, Calif. (AP) — UCLA coach Jim Mora challenged his offense at halftime, asking them to play at the same level shown on defense and special teams through the first 30 minutes.

The Bruins responded, with Josh Rosen throwing two of his three touchdowns and rushing for one touch-down after the ultimatum, and UCLA pulled away from Arizona 45-24 on Saturday night.

Rosen was 20 of 37 for 350 yards, Kenneth Walker had four catches for 114 yards with a pair of touchdowns and Darren Andrews added 108 yards receiving and a 26-yard TD run.

“If we could just find a way to put it together as a football team we could be pretty darn dynamic, and that’s the challenge,” Mora said. “I think it’s pretty evident we can play some really good defense. We can play some good special teams. We can play some good offense. We just got to do it all at the same time.”

UCLA (3-2, 1-1 Pac-12) struggled to run the ball for long stretches, but it didn’t matter as the injury-riddled Wildcats (2-3, 0-2) saw their offensive ranks further depleted. Quarterback Brandon Dawkins took a big hit from linebacker Kenny Young in the second quarter and was replaced after halftime. Running back Nick Wilson came up limping late in the first quarter.

Right tackle Gerhard de Beer and right tackle Jacob Alsadek also suffered undisclosed injuries, while left guard Freddie Tagaloa did not travel with the team.

Touted freshman Khalil Tate came in at quarterback on Arizona’s second possession of the second half, lead-ing a drive that ended in a Josh Pollack field goal. Tate’s next drive ended with a 31-yard touchdown to Shun Brown. Tate had 72 yards passing and 79 yards rushing in his college debut, throwing a second touchdown to Cam Denson with 38 seconds remaining.

FRESHMAN FINDS

Tate and UCLA wide receiver Theo Howard were among the most accomplished and sought-after high school players in Southern California last year. Those talents were on full display in the Rose Bowl.

Howard caught his first career touchdown early in the third quarter, providing the spark Mora was looking for with a 19-yard catch-and-run where he shook an Arizona defensive back and sprinted up the far sideline. With dropped passes a lingering issue for the UCLA offense, how quickly Howard can become a consistent part of the rotation could determine the ceiling for what Rosen can accomplish this season.

At the start of the season, Tate was expected to redshirt as the fourth-string quarterback seeing only a handful of snaps in practice. With Anu Solomon missing the last four games with a knee injury, those reps increased and coaches told Tate to prepare for the exact situation that unfolded against UCLA.

“Thought he would give us the best chance to score points,” Arizona coach Rich Rodriguez said, explaining his decision to play Tate.

ARIZONA QUICK HITS

• The Arizona Wildcats scored on their first play from scrimmage for the first time in at least 20 years. The 75-yard touchdown pass from Brandon Dawkins to Shun Brown also marked Arizona’s fastest score to open a game in at least 20 years. The score came 11 seconds into the game. In 2009, Travis Cobb returned the opening kickoff 95 yards for a touchdown 13 seconds into the game.

• The 75-yard pass play from Dawkins to Brown marked the longest pass play of the season for the Wildcats. It’s the longest since Dawkins found Trey Griffey for a 95-yard touchdown pass in the regu-lar season finale last season against Arizona State.

• Sophomore receiver Shun Brown had three catches for 89 yards Saturday. Brown now has 19 catches for 345 yards over the past four games.

Scoring Summary

SALT LAKE CITY (AP) — Utah’s eighth false start penalty of the first half brought out boos from its home-coming crowd. Luckily for the Utes, a second-half rally was enough to avoid spoiling the occasion.

Quarterback Troy Williams ran for two touchdowns and threw another, helping No. 24 Utah come back to beat Arizona 36-23 on Saturday night.

Utah (5-1, 2-1) trailed 14-12 at halftime after committing 11 first-half penalties, including all those false starts. Arizona (2-4, 0-3) scored on the first snap of the game when Brandon Dawkins connected with Shun Brown for a 75-yard TD pass, taking advantage of blown coverage that left Brown completely uncovered.

“We’re a pretty decent football team if we would stop some of the self-inflicted stuff,” Utah coach Kyle Whittingham said. “We did some things to create tough situations for us that we’ve got to get fixed. We had far too many penalties tonight.”

The Utes scored 26 straight points after falling behind 14-3. Williams got both of his running TDs in the sec-ond half and had 245 yards passing for the game. Armand Shyne also ran for a TD in the third quarter, while the defense tightened up and forced two second-half turnovers and allowed just nine points. Shyne finished with 101 yards on 19 carries.

The Utes moved into a tie atop the Pac-12 South with Colorado. They ended a four-game losing streak to Arizona. After beating Arizona’s Rich Rodriguez, Utah coach Kyle Whittingham has defeated every active Pac-12 coach since joining the conference in 2011. Whittingham also got his 100th career victory.

THE TAKEAWAY

Arizona: The Wildcats allowed more than 400 yards for the fifth consecutive game. Fans will be happy to have Dawkins back, but Arizona was held to 127 yards rushing, including just 78 from players other than Dawkins. The sophomore quarterback threw for 243 yards, one touchdown and two interceptions and also ran for a score. Freshman Khalil Tate finished the game for the second consecutive week.

“I don’t think our defense wore down,” Arizona linebacker Michael Barton said. They just kept attacking and we just tried to fight as best we could. We had a lot of new guys in there today, guys who hadn’t played any snaps before today.”

Utah: USC’s win over Colorado helped the Utes move into a tie for first, but they can’t feel great about it. The offense finished with fine statistics, but most of the positives came in the second half against a team that entered the game ranked No. 104 in the nation in total defense. The defense allowed a season-high 475 yards.

“We had a few big plays made on us, but we bounced back every time they happened,” Utah safety Marcus Williams said. “We never put our heads down. We just kept grinding through the game and we just got this win.”

ARIZONA QUICK HITS

• Senior wide receiver Nate Phillips finished with three catches for 39 yards with a long reception of 17 yards. Phillips now has at least one catch in 40 straight games, which is the fifth longest active streak in the nation. Phillips’ first catch of the game didn’t come until the third quarter when he hauled in the 17-yard pass from Khalil Tate.

• Khalil Tate started at quarterback for the Wild-cats and became the first true freshman to start at QB for Arizona since Willie Tuitama in 2005. That season, Tuitama came out of his potential redshirt on Oct. 22 against Oregon, then started the next week in a 29-27 win at Oregon State on Oct. 29.

Scoring Summary

TUCSON, Ariz. (AP) — Sam Darnold is settling into the quarterback role at USC quite nicely, and he’s got the Trojans in the thick of the race in the Pac-12 South.

The redshirt freshman, who didn’t start until the fourth game of the season, threw five touchdown passes -- three to JuJu Smith Schuster -- in USC’s 48-14 rout of Arizona on Saturday.

“There’s a lot of stuff that I’ve learned these last few weeks that’s really helped in this game,” Darnold said, “and obviously games that we’re looking ahead.”

He completed 20 of 32 attempts for 235 yards and ran for 54 yards on six carries before sitting out the fourth quarter. He threw for 186 yards and four scores as USC built a 34-7 halftime lead.

“Not to blow his head up too much but he’s playing really good football right now, way beyond his years, his maturity level,” Trojans coach Clay Helton said.

Darnold was more upset about the plays he didn’t make.

He said he is taking his job “week by week.”

“If I progress, I progress” Darnold said. “That’s part of growing, mentally and physically.”

Smith-Schuster finished with nine catches for 132 yards.

The Trojans (4-3, 3-2 Pac-12) rolled for 575 yards and remained a half-game out of first place in the Pac-12 South. Arizona (2-5, 0-4) lost its fourth in a row.

USC won away from home for the first time since the interim label was removed from Helton’s title. The Trojans had lost five straight away from home, dating to last season.

“This was a much-needed road victory,” Helton said.

Wildcats true freshman Khalil Tate, just shy of his 18th birthday, completed 7 of 18 passes for 58 yards in his first collegiate start. Playing in place of injured Brandon Dawkins, Tate threw an interception and fumbled the ball away, leading to two USC touchdowns. He ran for 72 yards and a touchdown on 14 carries.

“He’s a true freshman so we wanted to rattle him a little bit and get some hits on him,” USC defensive back Chris Hawkins said.

Coach Rich Rodriguez said Tate is not the nervous type “...but there are times when a 17-year-old freshman looks like a 17-year-old freshman.”

Rodriguez was asked what he’d say to fans that are unhappy with the Wildcats.

“We’re 2-5. We’ve had some adversity,” he said. “We can fix problems in recruiting and the other problems we can fix in the short term. People’s opinions are people’s opinions. We’re not happy when we’re not winning.”

Scoring Summary

TUCSON, Ariz. (AP) — Christian McCaffrey took the handoff up the middle, made a little juke and, with a burst of speed, raced past Arizona’s flailing defenders.

This was the player Stanford had been missing the past few weeks.

McCaffrey returned to his tackle-eluding form, accounting for 225 all-purpose yards and three touchdowns to lead the Cardinal to a 34-10 victory over Arizona Saturday night.

‘’We know that when Christian gets a crease, he does special things beyond the line of scrimmage,’’ Stanford coach David Shaw said.

McCaffrey has had a difficult follow-up to his Heisman runner-up a year ago.

Good early in the season, he missed most of the second half against Washington State on Oct. 8 and did not play the following week against Notre Dame. McCaffrey returned against Colorado last week, finishing with 92 yards rushing on 21 carries.

The shifty junior had a jump in his step against the Wildcats, scoring on runs of 45 and 6 yards to finish with 169 yards on 23 carries. McCaffrey added four catches for 27 yards, including an 18-yard catch-and-run TD .

Bryce Love chipped in 78 yards on 12 carries while giving McCaffrey a break and helped the Cardinal (5-3, 3-3 Pac-12) break out of scoring funk after entering Saturday’s game 127th of 128 FBS teams in scoring at 17 points per game.

‘’This is the first week we’ve had them both healthy,’’ Shaw said. ‘’This is what we envisioned all year and this is the first time we’ve been able to do it, and it looked pretty good.’’

Arizona (2-6, 0-5) had its top two quarterbacks back for the first time since the season opener, yet continued to sputter offensively in its fifth straight loss.

Brandon Dawkins started and threw for 116 yards, including a 38-yard TD pass to Trey Griffey. Dawkins also had 65 yards on 17 yards rushing on 17 carries. Anu Solomon replaced him in the third quarter and lasted just two series, finishing 0-for-3 passing.

‘’Just like receivers make mistakes, they don’t always see when guys are open,’’ Arizona running back Samajie Grant said. ‘’We just have to rep it after practice. We have to stay more after practice.’’

Part of it was a lack of running game. With Nick Wilson out for an extended period, Arizona was forced to use Grant, a converted receiver, as starting running back.

Grant finished with 64 yards, but Arizona had just 170 yards on 44 carries and finished 286 total yards, 147 below its season average.

‘’We missed some things up front,’’ Arizona guard Jacob Alsadek said. ‘’Samajie was out there running hard and we need to give him a better chance.’’

Scoring Summary

PULLMAN, Wash. (AP) — Luke Falk threw for 311 yards and four touchdowns and No. 25 Washington State beat Arizona 69-7 on Saturday for the Cougars’ seventh consecutive victory.

Washington State (7-2, 6-0 Pac-12, No. 25 CFP) had its highest points total since 1997 and the most ever against a Pac-12 opponent.

The Cougars hadn’t won seven straight games since 2002. They and No. 4 Washington remain the only teams with undefeated Pac-12 records.

Arizona (2-7, 0-6), which has lost six games in a row, struggled on offense behind quarterbacks Brandon Dawkins, Anu Solomon and Khalil Tate. They combined to complete 11 of 23 passes for 128 yards, with one touchdown and two interceptions.

Washington State scored on its first six possessions for a 38-7 lead at halftime.

Falk, who was relieved late in the third quarter by Tyler Hilinski, completed 32 of 35 passes. He was not intercepted or sacked.

Washington State piled up 614 yards of offense while limiting Arizona to 286 yards. Samajie Grant rushed for 77 yards for the Wildcats.

Washington State’s Gerard Wicks ran for two touchdowns, and Tavares Martin Jr. caught two touchdown passes. James Williams also scored a pair of touchdowns for the Cougars.

THE TAKEAWAY

Arizona: The Wildcats rotated their quarterbacks all game, but could not generate much offense. The de-fense proved porous to WSU’s Air Raid.

Washington State: Played without star nose tackle Robert Barber, who has been suspended from school for his role in a fight at a party. But Washington State had a big day on defense anyway, holding Arizona to 158 rushing yards, 50 of them on one play.

Arizona hosts Colorado next Saturday.

Scoring Summary

TUCSON, Ariz. (AP) — Sefo Liufau has his groove back, and so does Colorado’s offense.

It came at just the right time for the Buffaloes with a season-defining stretch up next.

Liufau passed for three touchdowns and ran for another, helping No. 16 Colorado roll over Arizona 49-24 on Saturday night for the Buffaloes’ first four-game winning streak in 14 years.

The victory keeps Colorado (8-2, 7-1 Pac-12, No. 12 CFP) atop the Pac-12 South with games against No. 23 Washington State and No. 13 Utah coming up to close out the regular season.

“We’re right where we want to be,” Lifau said.

Liufau was sharp after being banged up against UCLA, hitting 19 of 27 passes for 213 yards, including two touchdowns to Shay Fields. Liufau also ran for a 2-yard score.

Phillip Lindsay ran for 119 yards and three touchdowns, helping the Buffaloes to their best start since open-ing the 2001 season 8-2.

“It felt great, especially with the passing game; it has not been there,” Fields said. “It’s something we stressed before this game.”

While Colorado is on course for the Pac-12 South title, Arizona (2-8, 0-7) is in the midst of its first sev-en-game losing streak since 2004.

The Wildcats moved the ball well on offense but failed to capitalize on some early chances to allow Colora-do to pull away.

“It hasn’t been a great season, but we’re still going to come out and play,” Arizona quarterback Brandon Dawkins said. “We’re not going to hand any teams any wins.”

Samajie Grant ran for 113 yards and two touchdowns and the Wildcats outgained Colorado 417-388 in total yards. Arizona also had 13 penalties for 143 yards and three drives that ended with missed field goals by Josh Pollack.

“Those are killers,” Arizona coach Rich Rodriguez said of the penalties. “It’s hard for us to stop somebody and we finally stop them, to give them a first down on a penalty with poor technique. You’re not a good football team when you do those things and you don’t give yourself a chance to beat anybody.”

THE TAKEAWAY

Colorado: The Buffaloes played the way they were supposed to against a downtrodden opponent to remain a game ahead of No. 13 Utah in the Pac-12 South.

Arizona: The Wildcats’ defense was picked apart yet again and their offense was unable to capitalize on numerous chances. Arizona has two games left to avoid going winless in the Pac-12.

Scoring Summary

CORVALLIS, Ore. (AP) — Marcus McMaryion threw for 265 yards and five touchdowns as the Oregon State Beavers snapped a four-game losing streak with a 42-17 victory over Arizona on Saturday night.

Ryan Nall ran for 124 yards and another score while Jordan Villamin caught six passes for 124 yards in just the second conference win for the Beavers (3-8, 2-6-Pac-12).

It was the eighth straight loss for the Wildcats (2-9, 0-8), who have been overwhelmed by injuries this season. Anu Solomon made his first start at quarterback since the opener but was injured in the first quarter and replaced by Brandon Dawkins, who threw for 106 yards and a touchdown while running for 88 yards on 15 carries.

The Beavers were without receiver Seth Collins, one of the most dynamic players on the team, who was hospitalized this past week with an undisclosed illness. Coach Gary Andersen couldn’t discuss any specifics because of privacy rules. Collins, who is most likely done for the season, had 36 catches for 418 yards this season.

But the Beavers saw the return of Nall, who missed last week’s game against UCLA because of a lingering foot injury.

Oregon State took the early lead on McMaryion’s 53-yard pass to Villamin. The Beavers extended the lead with McMaryion’s 11-yard pass to Nall.

Solomon, who missed six games with a knee injury earlier this season, was sacked for a 19-yard loss early in the second quarter and was later seen limping on the sideline. He emerged from the locker room in the second half wearing a boot on his left foot.

After Dawkins hit Nate Phillips with a 10-yard touchdown pass for the Wildcats, Timmy Hernandez made a diving 27-yard touchdown catch in the end zone to put the Beavers up 21-7.

Josh Pollack made a 22-yard field goal for Arizona before the break.

McMaryion added a 35-yard scoring pass to Trevon Bradford and Nall ran three yards for another score in the third quarter.

Samajie Grant ran 2 yards for an Arizona touchdown in the final quarter but McMaryion closed out the game for the Beavers with a 10-yard scoring pass to Artavis Pierce.

THE TAKEAWAY

Arizona: Arizona went into the game ranked at the bottom of the Pac-12 for scoring offense with an average of 22.4 points per game.

Oregon State: With two wins in the Pac-12, the Beavers pull even with the rival Oregon Ducks, who won their second league game earlier in the day in a 30-28 upset of No. 11 Utah.

The Civil War game next week will determine the last-place finisher in the Pac-12 North division.

UP NEXT

Arizona: The Wildcats wrap up a disappointing season at home on Friday with the Duel in the Desert rivalry game against Arizona State. The Sun Devils fell to No. 7 Washington 44-18 earlier on Saturday night.

Oregon State: The Beavers close out the season at home next Saturday with the annual Civil War rivalry game against Oregon.

ARIZONA QUICK HITS

• Arizona rushed for 511 yards Friday night against Arizona State, establishing a new school record for rushing yards in a game. The previous high was 499 set in 2015 versus Northern Arizona.

• The Wildcats had three players -- Brandon Dawkins, Samajie Grant and Zach Green-- pro-duce 100-yard rushing outputs Friday. The last known game with three individuals gaining 100 net rushing yards in the same game was Nov. 6, 1993 at home against Oregon in a 31-10 victory. In that game, Chuck Levy, Ontiwaun Carter and Billy Johnson each reached the century mark in rushing.

Scoring Summary

TUCSON, Ariz. (AP) — Samajie Grant ran for 176 yards and three touchdowns, and Arizona racked up a school-record 511 yards on the ground to roll over rival Arizona State 56-35 Friday night.

Working out of a huddle for the first time under coach Rich Rodriguez, Arizona (3-9, 1-8 Pac-12) reeled off one big play after another, starting with Brandon Dawkins’ 71-yard touchdown run on the game’s third play.

The Wildcats had three players eclipse 100 yards rushing for the first time since 1993, turning the Territorial Cup into a runaway while ending their eight-game losing streak.

Dawkins had 183 yards rushing, Zach Green added 126 yards and both scored two touchdowns for the Wild-cats, who didn’t throw a pass in the second half.

Arizona State (5-7, 2-7) lost its sixth straight game and failed to become bowl eligible for the first time in five seasons under coach Todd Graham.

Manny Wilkins threw for 372 yards and three touchdowns for Arizona State.

The Sun Devils and Wildcats labored through the first 11 games of the season, fighting injuries and break-downs to set up the first Territorial Cup with two losing since 2003.

Regardless of the records, this rivalry always has a flair to it, whether it’s big plays, mammoth comebacks, missed PATs that decide the outcome.

The 90th Duel in the Desert certainly got off to a wild start with a first quarter that included a long TD run, three turnovers — one returned for a TD — and a badly-missed field goal by the NCAA’s career leader.

Dawkins had the TD run, bursting up the middle for 71 yards. Arizona State’s Koron Crump had the return, going 42 yards on Dawkins’ fumble. And Arizona State’s Zane Gonzalez, who’s made more field goals than anyone in college football history, pushed a 53-yard field goal about 15 yards right.

Dawkins opened the second quarter on a 10-yard, tackling-breaking run, then found Nate Phillips, who was left uncovered on a screen and raced 64 yards for a touchdown. Green’s 1-yard TD run put Arizona up 21.

Arizona State finally showed some life just before halftime with Tim White scoring on a 21-yard touchdown pass just. Kalen Ballage opened the third quarter on a 2-yard run to cut Arizona’s lead to 28-21.

Then Arizona ran away with it.

Going exclusively to the run, the Wildcats stretched the lead behind Grant and Green.

Grant scored on a 9-yard run in the third quarter, Green on a 1-yarder. Grant added a 2-yard TD run to start the fourth and went 63 yards for a score to cap the runaway.

NATIONAL PLAYERS OF THE YEAR

1990 Jim Thorpe Award - Darryll LewisArizona defensive back Darryll Lewis won the 1990 Jim Thorpe Award as the country’s top defensive back. Lewis, who was inducted into Arizona’s Sports Hall of Fame in 1995, finished his career with 14 interceptions, played in the Hula Bowl, was a third-round NFL pick and is a regular NFL starter. He was the 1990 Pac-10 Defensive Player of the Year.

Lewis was a game-turning defensive back; such as the time his interception return of 70 yards for a score helped UA beat UCLA. Or his goal-line stop of scrambling Oregon quarterback Bill Musgrave at the goal line to preserve another victory. Those were huge plays by a big-time player, but a few of many he provided as a four-year letterman from 1987-1990.

1993 Outland Trophy - Rob WaldropWildcat defensive tackle Rob Waldrop capped a tremendous career as the winner of the Outland Trophy for the nation’s top interior lineman in 1993.

Opponents double- and triple-teamed him at times in an effort to contain his pass rush and run-stopping tech-niques. Among his 53 tackles that year were 14 for losses, including eight sacks — a remarkable feat for an interior lineman. In his final two seasons, he had 18 sacks and spearheaded the play, which spawned the Wildcats’ “Desert Swarm” nickname. He also won the Football Writer’s inaugural Defensive Player of the Year Award, now called the Bronko Nagurski Award. He was named UPI Lineman of the Year as well.

In a superior effort at the 1994 Fiesta Bowl, Waldrop helped pin Miami with its back to the goal and came up with another sack, helping Arizona beat Miami, 29-0.

1994 Lou Groza Award - Steve McLaughlinArizona’s Steve McLaughlin topped a remarkable four-year career in 1994 by winning the Lou Groza Collegiate Place Kicker Award as the nation’s best — the player you want to kick one in the clutch. He certainly did in 1994, earning consensus first-team All-America honors.

He made 80 percent of his kicks during the season, including an amazing 12-of-16 from beyond 40 yards and 3-of-5 from beyond 50 yards. Subtracting a couple of monster tries at the end of periods, he was 23-of-27 from 57 yards and in. He led the Pac-10 in scoring with 95 points in 1994 and was first in the league and second nationally with 2.1 field goals per game. He kicked a career-best 54-yard field goal against California to earn an AT&T Long Distance Award for the longest kick of the week. He made all 26 of his point-after kicks. He was an accomplished pooch punter from field goal formation and kicked off his final two years as well.

He finished his career with 57 field goals in 81 tries and made 112-of-119 PATs for 283 points, third on the UA’s all-time scoring list.

McLaughlin acquired the ‘let-me-kick-it’ attitude that is so critical to the trade. He had some misses that might have turned games but kept his confidence growing. One big day for McLaughlin came when his three field goals helped beat No. 1 Washington in 1992.

1998 Mosi Tatupu Award - Chris McAlisterArizona cornerback Chris McAlister capped an outstanding three-year Wildcat career by winning the 1998 Mosi Tatupu Special Teams Player of the Year Award as the nation’s top player in the kicking game.

McAlister, a unanimous All-America pick and finalist for the Jim Thorpe Award honoring the best collegiate defensive back that year as well, was involved in Arizona’s special teams from both sides of the kick.

In 1998, he set the tone for the Cats’ big-play 12-1 season by returning the opening kickoff 100 yards for a touchdown at Hawai’i on the first play of the year, tying his own school record set in 1996 against UCLA. He blocked punts in each of the final two regular-season games of the year and had a third deflected punt. He returned a punt 69 yards for a score against Northeast Louisiana and returned an interception 60 yards for a score against Washington State to become only the seventh player in NCAA history to have scored on kickoff, punt and interception returns in a single season.

He was a defensive player who averaged 38 yards per game in all-purpose yardage: eight kickoff returns for a 29.5 mark, five punt returns for a 20.8 mark and five interception returns for a 12.8 figure. What it meant to the Cats for three years was like having a 12th player on the field each time McAlister took his place somewhere among the ac-tion. His 18 career interceptions placed him No. 3 on UA’s all-time chart, but his special teams’ play was unmatched.

2007 Jim Thorpe Award - Antoine CasonArizona cornerback Antoine Cason became UA’s second Jim Thorpe Award winner and the latest Wildcat consensus All-American since 1999 with his superlative senior season in 2007. Among his highlight-reel plays in 2007 were interception returns of 42 yards for a score against Oregon, a 56-yard punt return for a score against the Ducks and a 60-yard interception return for a score against Oregon State. He had three other interceptions on the year to give him a career total of 15, fourth best in school history. His 165 yard on INT returns was just shy of the school record 191 yards set by Thorpe Award winner Darryll Lewis in 1990.

Cason was a two-time first-team All-Pac-10 selection. In 2007 he was named first-team All-America by Walter Camp, the Associated Press, The Sporting News, CBS Sports, ESPN.com, SI.com, Rivals.com and cfn.com. His electrifying play was no more special than his off-the-field comportment as a UA team spokesman and leader throughout his career. His ‘Cason Cares’ charity drive for cancer research in 2007 typified his renaissance leadership. He was Arizona’s Ruby Award winner as the top male student-athlete for the 2007-08 school year. But his senior year’s action on the field was special. He finished with 71 tackles, five interception, 14 passes defensed, two forced fumbles, a sack and four tackles for loss. His four returns for scores (2 INT, 2 PR) set a UA standard.

2014 Chuck Bednarik Award, Rotatary Lombardi Award, Bronko Nagurski Trophy - Scooby Wright IIISophomore linebacker Scooby Wright III swept the national defensive player of the year awards in 2014. Also Arizo-na’s sixth unanimous All-American, he was named the Pac-12 Pat Tillman Defensive Player of the Year and the CBSSports.com, Scout.com and SB National National Defensive Player of the Year. A three-time Pac-12 Player of the Week, Wright was also the lone defensive player named Walter Camp Player of the Year Finalist.

He turned in one of the most prolific defensive seasons in NCAA history. He ranked in the top five among FBS players for total tackles (163), tackles for loss (29.0), sacks (14.0) and forced fumbles (6). He set career game-high 19 tackles at UCLA, 5.0 TFL vs. ASU and three forced fumbles at Washington State.

Wright was instrumental in Arizona’s 10-win season and bids to the Pac-12 Championship and VIZIO Fiesta Bowl Games.

ARIZONA & THE NFF HALL OF FAME

Coach Warren Woodson - 1989 InducteeArizona’s head coach from 1952-56, Warren Woodson was inducted to the College Football Hall of Fame in 1989. He served as Art Luppino’s head coach during his NCAA-leading rushing seasons in 1954 and 1955. During his career, he coached six NCAA rushing leaders. He led the Wildcats to a 26-22-3 record during his four seasons in Tucson.

Linebacker Ricky Hunley - 1998 InducteeOne of many defensive stars at Arizona over the years, All-America linebacker Ricky Hunley was a hugely physical presence in the early 1980s and became the first Wildcat elected to the College Football Hall of Fame, with induction in 1998. He turned down a Pittsburgh Pirates baseball offer to play football at Arizona. From 1980 to 1983, Hunley was in on an amazing 566 tackles and was a consensus first-team All-American in both 1982 and 1983. He was a three-time All-Pacific-10 Conference selection and was the 1983 Pac-10 Co-Defensive Player of the Year. A team captain in 1983, he also earned Arizona’s Most Valuable Player honor in helping lead the Wildcats to a 7-3-1 record. For several seasons, he played alongside his younger brother, LaMonte, also a Wildcat linebacker. Hunley led the Wildcats in unassisted tackles every year from 1981-83 with totals of 74, 100 and 99, respectively. He also set a school record recovering five fumbles in 1983. Now a professional coach, Hunley played in the NFL for seven years and participated in Super Bowls XXI and XXII as a Denver Bronco. He has coached at Southern California and Missouri and served on the Board of Directors for the Black Coaches Association and the Minority Issues Committee of the AFCA.

Coach Jim Young - 1999 InducteeFormer University of Arizona coach Jim Young joined several other coaches — Don Coryell and Jerry Claiborne — and the likes of Herschel Walker, Billy Kilmer, John Hannah, Ross Browner and several other storied players in the 1999 class of inductees into the National Football Foundation College Hall of Fame. Young, retired in Tucson, had three successful head coaching stints, including his first at Arizona from 1973 to 1976, at Purdue from 1977 to 1981 and a tour of duty at Army from 1983 to 1990. Overall, he won more than 60 percent of his games, at 120-71-2, turning around programs at each stop. At UA, he was 31-13 and posted two 9-2 seasons in 1974 and 1975, among UA’s best ever. His 1973 Arizona club finished 8-3 and tied for UA’s first conference title in 40 years. At Purdue, he was 38-19-1 with three bowl victories. Coaching the Cadets, he was 51-39-1 with a 2-1 bowl record. Young, who holds bachelor’s and master’s degrees from Bowling Green, employed passing attacks at Arizona and Purdue and installed the wish-bone at Army to reach national rushing prominence. Young completed his football career as an offensive assistant on Dick Tomey’s 1992-94 Arizona staffs after Tomey talked him into delaying his retirement.

Coach Darrell Mudra - 2000 InducteeDarrell Mudra retired from collegiate football in 1988 bringing an end to a Hall of Fame career, which boasts a 200-81-4 record and two national championships. He started his collegiate head-coaching career at Adams State in 1959 and led the team to the 1962 Mineral Bowl, where they defeated Northern Illinois 23-20. In 1963 he became the head coach at North Dakota State where he successfully turned the program around from a 0-10 record the year before, to a 1964 Mineral Bowl victory. In 1965 he won his first national championship defeating Grambling 20-7 in the Pecan Bowl. He then coached the University of Arizona for two seasons and led them to the 1968 Sun Bowl. After a success-ful stint at Western Illinois, Mudra coached Florida State for two years before going to Eastern Illinois where he won the Division II National Championship. During Coach Mudra’s tenure at Northern Iowa, he led the team to the I-AA semifinals in 1985 and 1987. The Panthers were ranked fourth nationally at the end of the 1987 season and lost to the eventual national champion Northeast Louisiana 44-41 in overtime. He was named Kodak Region 4 Coach of the Year in 1985 while at UNI. Mudra was nicknamed “Dr. Victory” because of his success at each level, but always shied away from all of the accolades, preferring to let his assistants and players take the credit.

Safety Chuck Cecil - 2009 InducteeA two-time First Team Academic All-America selection (1986-87), Cecil starred for Arizona from 1984 to 1987, first under the late Larry Smith and then under former head coach Dick Tomey for his final year. He began as a recruited walk-on and finished his UA career as one of the Pac-10’s noted and fearless safeties. A consensus All-American in 1987, Cecil was the Aloha Bowl MVP and a two-time first-team all-conference selection, plus earned second-team honors as a sophomore. He was named Pac-10 Defensive Player of the Year in 1987 and Pac-10 Player of the Week on three occasions. A three-time Pac-10 All-Academic selection, he culminated his education as a recipient of the NCAA Top VI Award, one of the nation’s top scholar-athlete citations. He was named Arizona’s male winner of the the Pac-10 Conference Medal.

He holds the Arizona career record with 21 interceptions and among those returned one 100 yards for a touchdown against Arizona State in 1986, one of the most electrifying moment in UA football history. Drafted in the fourth round of the 1988 draft by the Green Bay Packers, Cecil spent seven seasons in the NFL and is currently defensive coordi-nator for the Tennessee Titans. Cecil has served as co-chair of the University of Arizona Medical Center Foundation campaign for UMC Trauma Center.

Defensive Tackle Rob Waldrop - 2011 InducteeA two-time consensus All-American during his junior and senior seasons, Waldrop was the Pac-10 Defensive Player of the Year in 1993, received the Outland Trophy honoring the country’s top interior lineman, was voted the Top De-fensive Player of the Year by the Football Writers of America (now called the Bronko Nagurski award), and was one of four finalists for the Lombardi Trophy honoring the outstanding lineman of the year.

In 1992 he was voted by opposing linemen as the Pac-10’s defensive winner of the Morris Award. He earned first-team All-Pacific-10 Conference honors in 1992 and 1993 and was Pac-10 Defensive Player of the Week against Miami in 1992 and versus USC in 1993. He was named defensive MVP of the 1992 Sun Bowl. He earned Playboy Pigskin Preview All-America honors in 1993. During his senior season, Waldrop recorded 53 total tackles, 14 for losses, including eight sacks --a remarkable feat for an interior lineman. His play, which helped spawn the Wildcats’ “Desert Swarm” nickname, was evident in the 1994 Fiesta Bowl when he helped guide Arizona to a shutout, 29-0 victory. He spear-headed an effort which helped the Wildcats lead the nation and set a Pac-10 record with 33 rushing yards allowed per game in 1993, when Arizona led the nation in total defense. He finished his Arizona career with an amazing 164 tackles for an interior lineman, with 44 tackles for loss and 22.5 sacks, which rate fifth in UA’s history. Waldrop was drafted in `94 by the NFL’s Kansas City Chiefs, played two seasons and later went on to a 1996 stint with the Toronto Argonauts of the CFL.

Defensive Tackle Tedy Bruschi - 2013 InducteeWith Bruschi as a key component, Arizona’s Desert Swarm defense led the nation in scoring defense in 1992. In 1993, Desert Swarm led the nation in rushing defense and defined a squad that achieved UA’s first 10-victory season, de-feating Miami, 29-0, in the Fiesta Bowl. Bruschi was named Fiesta Bowl MVP.

Bruschi (1991-95) ended his career with 52 sacks, tied for the most in NCAA history. He was a consensus All-American in 1994 and a unanimous All-American in 1995.

Bruschi’s celebrated senior season included the 1995 Pac-10 Defensive Player of the Year honors and winning the Morris Trophy as the league’s best defensive lineman. He was a two-time finalist for the Lombardi Award and grad-uated with 74 tackles for loss, which ranked sixth in FBS history. Bruschi was named all-conference three times and he led the Wildcats to three bowl berths under head coach Dick Tomey.

The San Francisco native was a third-round selection by the New England Patriots in the 1996 NFL Draft. Bruschi enjoyed a 13-year career, winning three Super Bowls with the franchise. The Pro Bowler was named the Associated Press’ Comeback Player of the Year in 2005 following a stroke.

Super Bowl WildcatsFormer UA players have 45 overall player appearances in the NFL Championship tilt. Three former Wildcats played in Super Bowl XLII in 2008 in Glendale, Ariz., for the most in any one season. Retired linebacker Tedy Bruschi and offensive lineman Glenn Parker lead all UA players with five Super Bowls – all of Bruschi’s with the New England Patriots and Parker in four with the Buffalo Bills and one with the New York Giants. Bruschi, the NCAA career sack leader when he left col-lege, has the best Super Bowl jewelry collection with three Championship rings as the starting middle linebacker for the Patriots in the 2000s. In 2008, starting linebacker Antonio Pierce and backup DB Michael Johnson took home champi-onship rings for the New York Giants over Bruschi’s Pats. Current Patriots tight end Rob Gronkowski has appeared in three super bowls in the last five seasons.

ARIZONA STADIUM

Stadium NotesFirst Game: Oct. 12, 1929 (W, 35-0 vs. Cal Tech)

First Night Game: Sept. 25, 1931 (L, 0-8 vs. SDSU)

Arizona Stadium is one of the finest playing facilities in the country and was recently upgraded through one of the most significant improvements in its history. The home of the Wildcats, Arizona Stadium reflects the history and tradition of Arizona football and the overall growth of the University of Arizona campus.

The Lowell-Stevens Football Facility, which opened to the public in August 2013, is a reflection of that growth and completes a dynamic shift in the Arizona football culture as it becomes the centerpiece of the program on the north end of Arizona Stadium. Supported by private funds including significant leadership gifts from David and Edith Lowell and from Jeff and Sharon Stevens, the $72.3 million project provides the Wildcats with one of the premier football facilities in the nation.

The facility is a four-floor operations center with strength and conditioning, sports medicine, coaches’ offices, locker rooms, meeting rooms, equipment and facility service areas. The structure encloses the north end of the stadium and creates a full bowl with nearly 4,000 premium spectator seats, including a donor lounge with outdoor seating. Additionally, stairways and elevator towers for the concourse connect the structure to the existing east and west stadium sections. Restrooms, amenity areas and a cafeteria also serve fans, campus and the community.

Spectators in the revamped north end of the stadium have a front and center view of the state-of-the-art video board beyond the opposite end zone. In August 2011, Arizona completed work on the video board for the south end zone. The new video board measures 113’ wide by 47’ high - 6.5 times larger than the previous board - and is one of the largest in all of college sports.

Indeed, the recent upgrades are the latest in the evolution of Arizona Stadium over the years. Built in 1928 with 7,000 seats located on the west side between the end zones, the stadium has grown into a 57,000-seat facility that combines tradition with modern conveniences, remaining one of the top venues for its specta-tors. Every seat features an uncluttered view of the playing surface, and more than half of the seats provide sweeping vistas of the campus and nearby city skyline, as well as the Santa Catalina Mountains.

Since playing and winning their first game on Oct. 12, 1929 (35-0 vs. California Tech), Arizona football teams have played 481 games in the stadium, 381 of them at twilight or night, winning 275, losing 174 and tying 12. The team has never failed to win at least one home game in a season and has gone undefeated nine times, the last time coming with a 6-0 record in 1993.

As Arizona football grew, so did the facilities surrounding it. In 1989, a $6.3 million structure housing the media, skyboxes and loge seating was added to accommodate increased interest in the football program. Two other non-football features of the stadium are notable - UA’s renowned Tree Ring Research Lab on the west side, and the Steward Telescope Laboratory on the east side - two of the nation’s most venerated research facilities.

In 1938, seating was added between the 25-yard lines on the east side to boost capacity to 10,000. Nine years later, the end zones were filled, and in 1950, the horseshoe at the south end was completed, giving the facility a capacity of 22,671 seats.

Expansion on the west side in 1965 provided 10,000 new seats, along with an 80-foot, multilevel press box. The two-tier addition to the east stands, adding 17,000 seats in 1976, was selected as one of six outstanding architectural projects in the Rocky Mountain States for 1977 by the AIA.

Permanent north-end bleacher seating for 4,500 was added in 1988, however, it would be removed for the new north-end project. The completion of the Lowell-Stevens Football Facility gives Arizona Stadium a lower bowl configuration for the first time, a 360-degree experience for Wildcat fans.

Dec. 26, 1921 // San Diego, Calif.

SAN DIEGO, Calif. - A dominating squad from Centre (Ky.) College splashed to a 38-0 victory over Arizona in front of several thousand rain-soaked fans, spoiling Arizona’s first-ever bowl game appearance.

The Praying Colonels held the Cats to zero first downs in the first half, and Arizona was unable to maintain a good drive throughout the game.

Centre’s Red Roberts, one of Walter Camp’s first All-America ends, scored the first touchdown five minutes into the match. Later, All-Amer-ican Alvin (Bo) McMillin went over the right tackle for another score. Centre led 18-0 at the half.

The second half was much the same, as Centre dominated every phase. Just as Arizona was mounting a drive late in the third stanza, an inter-ception ended Western hopes, and the Wildcat defense was unable to halt the potent Eastern attack. Centre’s Herb Covington scored on a punt return and a sweep to seal the victory.

Jan. 1, 1949 // Phoenix, Ariz.

PHOENIX, Ariz. - Arizona couldn’t overcome crucial mistakes, and the Drake Bulldogs triumphed, 14-13, before a crowd of 14,000 in nostal-gia-filled Montgomery Stadium.

The fiesty Midwesterners were outgained by coach Miles Casteel’s troops, 355 yards to 206, but the Cats had two fumbles and an inter-ception that ended any hope for a victory. Drake built a 14-7 halftime lead on the strength of Frank Metzger’s 1-yard run and Floyd Miller’s interception of Ed Wolgast for a 20-yard score. The Cats got on the board with a 15-yard Wolgast rollout.

Arizona roared back in the second half, as running back Charlie Hall romped 79 yards with the third quarter kickoff. The Cats failed to score on their first thrust after the thrilling return, but after an exchange of punts, the durable Wolgast tallied his second touchdown.

Drake carried the luck on this afternoon. Arizona’s Wrinfred Tackett, one of the Border-Conference’s top extra-point kickers, booted the pigskin against the left upright, the ball bounced away from the goal posts, and Drake escaped with a one-point margin.

Wolgast finished the day with 133 yards rushing, eight yards more than Drake’s team total.

1968 Sun Bowl Auburn 34, Arizona 10

Dec. 28, 1968 // El Paso, Texas

EL PASO, Texas - Arizona battled Auburn on even terms for one half, but within a period of seven minutes in the second half, the Tigers scored 24 points to crush the Wildcats, 34-10, before 32,302 weather-beaten fans and a na-tional television audience in the 34th annual Sun Bowl.

Auburn had taken the lead, 10-0, on a John Ri-ley 52-yard field goal, tying a Sun Bowl record, and a 65-yard touchdown pass from All-SEC quarterback Loran Carter to Mickey Zofko. But the Cats were fit to be tied as Steve Hur-ley booted a 37-yarder after both teams ex-changed turnovers. Arizona held Auburn on fourth down with under two minutes left in the half, and Arizona’s Bruce Lee went to work. Two first-down pass completions set up a 12-yard toss to Hal Arnason in the end zone, tying the score 10-10 at the half.

In the third quarter, Auburn took the lead and didn’t look back as Tommy Taylor scampered nine yards to put the Tigers up 17-10. Then Buddy McClinton intercepted Lee for the third time in the game and raced 32 yards to score. Auburn’s next possession produced a dazzling Carter to Tim Christian 42-yard touchdown pass. Riley then kicked a 41-yard field goal to secure the victory with 11:14 left.

Auburn’s Buddy McClinton was voted MVP of the game, and All-America tackle Dave Camp-bell was honored as the outstanding lineman.

1979 Fiesta BowlPittsburgh 16, Arizona 10

Dec. 25, 1979 // Tempe, Ariz.

TEMPE, Ariz. - The 10th-ranked Pittsburgh Panthers survived a late rally and hung on to defeat Arizona, 16-10, in the 1979 Fiesta Bowl. A national television audience was able to watch superb defensive play on both sides. Arizona’s defense held Pitt to 299 yards, while the offense dented the Panther’s na-tionally-ranked defense for 317 yards.

Pitt led 6-0 at halftime on the strength of 46-and 36-yard field goals by the game’s most valuable offensive player, Mark Schubert. Ar-izona moved the ball well, but couldn’t get the one big play it needed. The Cats drove to Pitt’s 37, 26 and 22, but came up empty each time.

The Cats’ trouble came on key plays. Midway through the first period, they were stopped on fourth-and-two at the Pitt 21. Arizona managed to get on the board late in the third period on a 38-yard field goal by Brett We-ber, but Pitt answered with a touchdown to expand its lead to 13-3.

The Panthers appeared to have wrapped up the game when Schubert kicked his third field goal of the day with 8:02 left. But the Cats reached into their bag of tricks to get back in the game. From the Pitt 47, fullback Hubie Oliver took a pitch and launched a pass down field to Greg Jackson who caught it at the Panther one. Oliver scored on the next play.

The outcome was in doubt until Terry White picked off a Jim Krohn pass with :58 remain-ing. Arizona’s David Liggins was voted the game’s most valuable defensive player on the strength of two key interceptions of Dan Marino passes to thwart Panther drives.

1985 Sun BowlArizona 13, Georgia 13

Dec. 25, 1985 // El Paso, Texas

EL PASO, Texas - Arizona and Georgia each failed on late field goal attempts leaving the teams tied, 13-13, and the record Sun Bowl crowd of 52,203 going home with an empty feeling.

The teams battled on even terms for a half with Georgia’s Steve Crumley booting a 37-yard field goal and Arizona’s Max Zendejas adding a 22-yarder after an apparent Arizona touchdown was nullified by penalty.

The third quarter belonged to coach Larry Smith’s troops, who drove 34 yards with the second-half kickoff before Zendejas nailed a 52-yard field goal. The Wildcats expanded the margin to 13-3 with 3:30 left to play in the stanza, as Martin Rudolph picked off a James Jackson pass and bolted 35 yards for a touch-down.

Georgia took the ensuing kickoff and drove to the Arizona 28, where Davis Jacobs kicked a 45-yarder to begin the Bulldog rally. Two plays later, James DeBow fumbled, and Geor-gia’s Tony Flack recovered to set up Lars Tate’s game-tying 2-yard run. Jacobs missed a 44-yarder with 1:14 to play. The Cats then used a 25-yard David Adams run to give Zendejas a 39-yard try with :10 remaining. However, his attempt was wide-right and short.

Zendejas and Georgia center Peter Anderson won outstanding player honors. Arizona finished the season at 8-3-1, while Georgia wound up 7-3-2.

1986 Aloha Bowl Arizona 30, North Carolina 21

Dec. 27, 1986 // Honolulu, Hawai’i

HONOLULU, Hawaii - Arizona capitalized on big defensive plays to coast to its first-ever post-season victory, 30-21, over North Caroli-na. All-America free safety Chuck Cecil was the ring-leader of the Cat defense that forced five fumbles with bone-jarring hits.

The Arizona offense showed spark as well. Da-vid Adams closed his sterling career with 81 yards rushing and a touchdown and three catches for 77 yards. Offensive MVP Alfred Jenkins finished 12-of-28 passing for 187 yards and a score.

But it was coach Larry Smith’s defense which made the big plays to set up points. A Jim Birmingham fumble recovery led to a 31-yard Gary Coston field goal to begin the attack. Later, Boomer Gibson partially blocked a punt, and the Cats put seven more on the board with an Adams one-yard scamper. Danny Lockett’s sack of Mark Maye caused a fumble, and the Cats cashed in with another Coston three-pointer for a 13-0 halftime lead.

It was more of the same in the third quarter. Arizona’s Jeff Valder booted a 52-yard field goal to set an Aloha Bowl record. Then Cecil clobbered Jonathan Hall, and Jerry Beasley recovered the subsequent fumble at the Tar Heel 30. Jenkins found Jon Horton from 13 yards out for the quick score. Another Tar Heel fumble led to Greathouse’s five-yard scoring run, and the Cats were in control.

1989 Copper BowlArizona 17, North Carolina State 10

Dec. 31, 1989 // Tucson, Ariz.

TUCSON, Ariz. - Arizona cashed in on big plays to defeat North Carolina State, 17-10, before an Arizona Stadium crowd of 37,237 in the inaugural Copper Bowl. The Wildcats were dominated statistically, 310 yards to 130 yards including a season-low 50 yards on the turf. However, two unlikely heroes, Olatide Ogun-fiditimi and Scott Geyer, made the big plays to pull out the victory.

In the first stanza, neither team could sustain drives, but the Cats got on the board first as Ronald Veal found a double-covered Ogunfid-itimi 37 yards down field for a 7-0 advantage. The second quarter proved more magical as Geyer, the Defensive MVP, intercepted Shane Montgomery and raced 85 yards for a score.

But the Wolfpack had a magic wand of their own as Montgomery, the Offensive MVP, capped a 56-yard, nine-play drive with a four-yard touchdown toss to fullback Todd Varn to cut the lead, 14-7. The half ended with a Gary Coston 34-yard field goal. Score: 17-7.

The second half included a Damon Hartman 43-yarder to inch the Pack closer, 17-10. How-ever the New Year brought a little luck to the Cats, as Montgomery just missed a diving Chris Williams over the middle for the possible tying touchdown with 1:02 left.

Arizona Dick Tomey notched a victory in his first-ever bowl game in 13 years as a head coach. The Wildcats finished 8-4 on the sea-son, and the Wolfpack closed at 7-5.

1990 Eagle Aloha BowlSyracuse 28, Arizona 0

Dec. 25, 1990 // Honolulu, Hawai’i

HONOLULU, Hawaii - Marvin Graves ran for two touchdowns and passed for another score as Syracuse embarrassed Arizona, 28-0, in the ninth Eagle Aloha Bowl game in rain-drenched Aloha Stadium.

Graves scored on a pair of 5-yard runs and threw 47 yards to Terry Richardson and 6 yards to Chris Gedney as the Orangemen ran their record to 7-4-2. Arizona fell to 7-5. The shutout snapped Arizona’s 214-game scoring streak, the second longest scoring streak in NCAA history. The last time the Cats were shut out was a 31-0 defeat by Arizona State in 1971. The Orangemen drove 65 yards in 13 plays following the opening kickoff with Graves scoring on a quarterback draw from the five with 8:35 left in the first quarter.

Syracuse made it 14-0 with 2:22 remaining in the half as Richardson slipped behind the Cat pass defense for an easy 47-yard reception. Arizona tried to get back into the game in the third quarter, twice reaching the Orangemen 35-yard line. But both drives died, and Syracuse put the game away in the fourth quarter with two long marches.

Graves was selected as Syracuse’s most valuable player, and cornerback Todd Burden, who had two interceptions and caused a fumble, was selected as Arizona’s most valuable player. The week-long inclement weather put a damper on many activities and caused many ticket purchas-ers to stay at home. There were 32,217 tickets sold but only 14,185 attended the game.

1992 Hancock BowlBaylor 20, Arizona 15

Dec. 31, 1992 // El Paso, Texas

EL PASO, Texas - Arizona’s defense lived up to its billing on all but two plays; those spelled doom as Baylor’s big scoring passes helped beat the Cats, 20-15, in the John Hancock Bowl.

UA, which unleashed a no-huddle, wide-open passing attack, opened scoring with a Steve McLaughlin first-quarter field goal and in-creased the lead to 10-0 with a 65-yard scoring drive capped by a George Malauulu quarter-back draw for seven yards mid-way through the second quarter.

BU halfback Brandell Jackson hit Melvin Bon-ner for a 61-yard strike three minutes later, but Arizona answered with a 14-play drive to set up another McLaughlin field goal and take a 13-7 halftime lead.

The Bears, held to 47 yards rushing, went to the air and struck again with another Bonner TD catch for 69 yards from QB J.J. Joe. Shortly into the fourth period, the Bears capitalized on two Arizona fumbles in UA territory and cashed them in for two Terry Weir field goals and a 20-13 lead.

With time running out, Arizona held BU deep on fourth-and-eight, and punter Rhett Del-aney took an intentional safety at 0:31. A Chuck Levy 27-yard kickoff return put the Cats in decent shape, and UA drove to the Baylor 28. Two passes from Malauulu into the end zone were incomplete although Heath Bray nearly snagged the game winner on the first try.

1994 IBM OS/2 Fiesta BowlArizona 29, Miami 0

Jan. 1, 1994 // Tempe, Ariz.

TEMPE, Ariz. - Arizona’s heralded “Desert Swarm” de-fense lived up to its name, and the Cats’ offensive attack nearly named its own price as UA thumped No. 10 Miami, 29-0, in IBM OS/2 Fiesta Bowl XXIII. The convincing vic-tory was the bowl’s only shutout in its 23-game history.

UA ran for 257 yards and one touchdown, passed for 152 yards and two touchdowns, had three Steve McLaughlin field goals and held Miami to 182 yards in total offense. The Wildcats’ swarming defense limited the Canes to Fi-esta Bowl record-lows of 22 rushes and 35 yards, plus picked off three Miami passes and sacked the quarter-back four times.

Tailback Chuck Levy ran for 142 yards including a 68-yard scoring dash and earned Fiesta Bowl offensive MVP hon-ors, while defensive end Tedy Bruschi recorded a sack and earned defensive MVP honors for UA.

UA jumped to a quick lead on its first possession, driving 75 yards with Dan White throwing a 13-yard TD pass to Troy Dickey. Arizona never looked back.

The Canes’ total offense was the second-lowest in Fiesta Bowl history, and the Arizona margin of victory was the second-largest in bowl history. Arizona enjoyed a time of possession advantage of 37:20 to 22:40 for Miami, an-other bowl record. Miami’s frustration was typified by its first possession, starting at its own 37-yard line. Three plays later the Canes punted on fourth-and-41 from their own 6-yard line.

The game gave UA its first 10-victory season in 90 years of football, and its strong showing earned the Cats a No. 9 final ranking in the coaches poll and No. 10 in the me-dia poll.

1994 Freedom BowlUtah 16, Arizona 13

Dec. 27, 1994 // Anaheim, Calif.

ANAHEIM, Calif. - Utah used a 72-yard kickoff return to set up the winning touchdown, as the Utes up-set No. 14 Arizona in the 11th annual Freedom Bowl, 16-13. A crowd of 27,477 watched as the Cats used a stifling defense to hold Utah to only 75 yards of total offense.

Arizona quarterback Dan White connected with On-tiwaun Carter from 23 yards out to give the Cats the early lead. After a White fumble deep in Arizona ter-ritory, Utah running back Charlie Brown scampered in from six yards out to tie the score.

After a 44-yard field goal by Steve McLaughlin, the Cats had first-and-goal at the Utah 2-yard line, but two dropped passes by Tim Thomas and then Lamar Lovett in the end zone forced the Cats to kick a 20-yard field goal. Late in the fourth quarter with Ari-zona leading 13-7, and Matt Peyton having to punt from his own end zone, the Cats gambled and took a safety as Peyton stepped out of the back of the end zone.

On the ensuing kickoff, Cal Beck returned the ball to the Arizona 5-yard line. The Wildcat defense held the Utes on three straight downs to set up a fourth-and-goal. Quarterback Mike McCoy scrambled out of the pocket and was in the grasp of Chuck Osborne but managed to get the pass off and found Kevin Dyson in the corner of the end zone for the winning score. A final UA drive ended in an interception.

The Cats recorded six sacks on the day, three of them by Tedy Bruschi, who earned Defensive MVP honors. Chuck Osborne had two sacks, and Sean Harris led the team with nine tackles.

1997 Insight.com BowlArizona 20, New Mexico 14

Dec. 27, 1997 // Tucson, Ariz.

TUCSON, Ariz. - Four Wildcat interceptions helped seal a hard-fought victory for Ari-zona over New Mexico in the ninth Insight.com Bowl, 20-14, before a crowd of 49,385 in the Cats’ house, Arizona Stadium.

UA ran over the Lobos, using a 209-yard running attack featuring the quicker Trung Canidate and the bruising style of Kelvin Eafon on 43 of the team’s 81 plays. Canidate was named the game’s Most Outstanding Offensive Player with 97 yards and a touch-down on 24 carries, while Eafon earned the game’s Most Valuable Player award for his 75 yards and two touchdowns on 19 totes. Thirteen of his rushes came in the fourth quarter when Arizona used ball posses-sion to turn back New Mexico efforts at a game-winning touchdown.

Arizona picked off four passes by UNM’s Graham Leigh—one in the first quarter by cornerback Chris McAlister, two in the third quarter by backup corner Kelvin Hunter and strong safety Rashee Johnson, and one in the fourth stanza by cornerback Kelly Malveaux, who returned the ball 44 yards just as the Lobos were crossing mid-field. It was Malveaux’ first interception of the year. Arizona outside linebacker Jim-my Sprotte earned the bowl’s Most Out-standing Defensive Player honor with nine tackles including four hits for losses of 12 yards. Inside linebacker Marcus Bell was the Cats’ leading tackler with 10.

Arizona coach Dick Tomey gave fifth-year senior QB Brady Batten the start in the game. An injury early in the year cost him a shot at the every-day spot. He played all but the fourth quarter, when the nominal No. 1 guy for most of the year, Ortege Jen-kins, came on.

1998 Culligan Holiday BowlArizona 23, Nebraska 20

Dec. 30, 1998 // San Diego, Calif.

SAN DIEGO, Calif. - Arizona’s defense held the storied Nebraska option rushing attack to 87 net yards, and the No. 5-ranked Wildcats cranked up some tough-guy rushing of their own to score 14 fourth-quarter points and beat the No. 14 Cornhuskers, 23-20, in the 21st annual Culligan Holiday Bowl.

The Cats secured the school’s finest record in history and earned enough acclaim through their efforts in the game — the most watched of any college bowl game in ESPN history – to earn a final No. 4 ranking in both the Associat-ed Press and USA Today/ESPN polls.

Unanimous All-America cornerback Chris McAlister cemented his reputation with an outstanding effort, intercepting two passes, one which turned the Huskers back on their fi-nal come-back try with less than four minutes remaining. He also had a 78-yard reverse punt return called back because of a questionable blocking call against Derek Hall.

Arizona trailed 13-9 at the half, and both teams struggled through five possessions in the third quarter before UA’s Dennis Northcutt gave the Cats some decent field position with a 16-yard punt return to start a 10-play scoring drive. Trung Canidate rushed five times for 37 yards in the span, and Keith Smith completed pass-es of five yards to Northcutt and Paul Shields and topped it off with a 15-yard strike to Brad Brennan for the score.

Nebraska answered, though, and reclaimed the lead at 20-16 with an eight-play, 88-yard drive, almost exclusively through the air.

With 10 minutes remaining, Smith opened UA’s next drive with a seven-yard pass to Shields, then the Cats ran the ball eight straight times for the nine-play, 68-yard drive which netted the final score on a Kelvin Eafon one-yard plunge. Smith had runs of 20, eight and eight yards to set up the score.

UA halted the Huskers with McAlister’s second pick and then later used enough clock with a first down to force Nebraska to get the ball back with 34 seconds remaining. One short completion and three incompletions, and the game was over.

Canidate ran for 101 yards on 22 carries. Smith, who completed 11-of-19 passing for 143 yards and ran for 25 more, was named Holiday Bowl Offensive MVP. UA’s Mark McDonald, who was 8-17 in field goals during the regular season, was a big key with a perfect 3-for-3 day, in-cluding a career-long 48-yarder. NU outgained the Cats, but UA won the turnover battle and kicking game.

2008 Las Vegas BowlArizona 31, BYU 21

Dec. 20, 2008 // Las Vegas, Nev.

LAS VEGAS, Nev. - Arizona capped its best sea-son in nine years with a solid effort against No. 17 Brigham Young, beating the Cougars 31-21 in the Pioneer Las Vegas Bowl.

The Cats took the first lead, set up by a 71-yard pass from Willie Tuitama to Terrell Turner, add-ed a Jason Bondzio 31-yard field goal a third of the way into the second quarter.

Tuitama fumbled a low snap on the first play of the second half and BYU took a 14-10 lead four minutes into the frame with the gift 27-yard drive.

After that, Arizona stalled once, missing a 3rd-and-1 opportunity, but turned right around for a defensive three-and-out and two plays lat-er Tuitama’s 37-yard pass to Delashaun Dean struck put the Cats back in the lead.

The Cougs fought back with a 12-play, 39-yard drive, but missed a long field goal attempt. Tuitama hit successive passes of 19 and 17 yards, and after a five-yard gain by Nic Grigsby fired one down the seam to a streaking Chris Gronkowski for a 27-yard score, making it 24-14 at the end of the period.

Five minutes into the final period, Wildcat cor-nerback Marquis Hundley manned up and intercepted BYU’s Max Hall in the end zone, taking it out to the UA 18 yard-line. Tuitama led a seven-play, 82-yard drive, sparked by a 27-yard run by Grigsby and a 23-yard pass to Turner, and then ran it in himself from six yards out for a 31-14 lead. Again the Cougars showed some of their 17th-ranked gumption, using eight Hall passes and two of his runs to get into the end zone quickly, and recovered an ensuing onside kick at the UA 48 yard-line. Hall drove BYU 28 yards, but Mitch Payne’s field goal attempt banged off the left upright with 2:07 left.

The Cats ran the ball four times and then Tui-tama scootched a three-yard pass to Mike Thomas on the final play of the game, giving the latter the Pac-10 career receiving record with his 259th reception as time expired. Dean led UA with seven catches for 88 yards to help Tuitama complete 24 of 35 throws for 325 yards and the game’s MVP award.

Nebraska 33, Arizona 0Dec. 30, 2009 // San Diego, Calif.

SAN DIEGO, Calif. - No. 20 Nebraska showed it was more than two ranking spots ahead of No. 22 Arizona by throttling the Wildcats, 33-0, in the Holiday Bowl.

After developing a reputation for high-scor-ing games and crazy finishes, the bowl got the first shutout in its 32-year history. Zac Lee threw a 74-yard touchdown pass to Niles Paul in the third quarter to highlight the win, but it was only one moment in a dominating effort.

The coaches expected a defensive game, and the Huskers delivered, earning their first shutout in 46 bowl appearances, plus held UA to 109 net yards. Arizona quarter-back Nick Foles was harassed all night and had one of his toughest outings of the year, finishing with nine completions in 30 at-tempts, for a miniscule 48 yards.

The Wildcats had the ball fourth-and-3 at the Nebraska 8-yard line with 1:41 to go, and eschewed a field goal, with safety P.J. Smith batting down Foles’ pass to preserve the shutout. Nebraska free safety Matt O’Hanlon intercepted Foles on the third play from scrimmage and returned it 37 yards to the Arizona 5. Lee scored on a four-yard run two plays later. It was the fastest score in Holiday Bowl history, coming just 75 seconds in.

Nebraska (10-4) got its first 10-win season since 2003. Nebraska’s Alex Henery set a Holiday Bowl record with four field goals, from 47, 50, 41 and 22 yards. Arizona fin-ished 8-5. NU coach Bo Pelini earned brag-ging rights in Youngstown, Ohio, where he and UA coach Mike Stoops grew up and played at Cardinal Mooney High.

ARIZONA BOWL GAME SUMMARIES

2010 Alamo BowlOklahoma State 36, Arizona 10

Dec. 29, 2010 // San Antonio, Texas

SAN ANTONIO, Texas - No. 14 Oklahoma State kept Arizona’s offense out of the end zone and used four Wildcat turnovers to spoil the Pac-10’s first game in the bowl since its early years.

Arizona outgained the Cowboys 370 to 312 yards, holding the vaunted OSU offense some 200 yards under its average. After an initial stop, however, Bug Wright fumbled the first punt of the game and gave OSU a short field for a 26-yard drive and the lead. The Cats were stopped on their next possession and OSU’s Brandon Weeden connected on a 71-yard toss to Justin Blackmon to add to the lead.

UA answered with a 63-yard drive to cut it to 14-7. After an exchange of possession a short UA punt set the Cowboys up at midfield and OSU settled for the first of three Dan Bailey FGs. On Arizona’s ensuing drive, Nick Foles was intercepted by Markelle Martin and returned 62 yards for a score. Bailey missed the kick and it was 23-. UA took the ball inside the OSU 40 yard-line three times but could not score before halftime.

UA showed some life with an Alex Zendejas field goal in the third quarter to make it 23-10 but OSU answered with its lon-gest drive of the night to make it 30-10. Another Foles’ inter-ception near midfield set up a second Bailey field goal. Zende-jas missed a 34-yarder minutes later in the fourth period, and Bailey knocked one home again for the final score. UA drove to the OSU 9 yard-line but could not cash in on 3rd- and 4th-and-1.

The Cats had 25 first downs to 17 by the Cowboys, held a 15-minute edge in time of possession but were one for three in the red zone, were sacked five times (to zero for UA), and suffered three interceptions and the fumbled punt for -4 turn-over margin.

Receiver David Douglas took home the Fred Jacoby Sports-manship Award for a 6-catch, 91-yard evening while the bowl offensive MVP award went to Blackmon for eight receptions for 112 yards and two scores, and the defensive MVP honor went to OSU defensive back Martin for his key INT.

BOWL SUMMARIES & RECORDS

2015 New Mexico BowlArizona 45, New Mexico 37

Dec. 19, 2015 // Albuquerque, N.M.

ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. - Quarterback Anu Sol-omon and All-America linebacker Scooby Wright III returned from injuries to help Ari-zona (7-6) hold off pesky New Mexico 45-37 in a wild New Mexico Bowl.

Solomon threw for two touchdowns and rushed for another score against New Mexico (7-6) in a game that saw New Mexico surge late after being down as many of 18 points. Wright had two sacks and 11 solo tackles.

After the game, Wright announced he would enter the NFL draft.

Arizona’s high-temp offense needed only 19:08 minutes of possession time to over-whelm New Mexico in the Lobos’ first bowl appearance since 2007.

Jared Baker ran for 107 yards and three touch-downs, and Cayleb Jones had 182 yards re-ceiving and a touchdown.

For Arizona, the New Mexico Bowl win comes just a year after Arizona eyed a playoff spot. Rodriguez said a bowl appearance and a vic-tory was just fine for the team.

Meanwhile, New Mexico quarterback Lamar Jordan rushed for three touchdowns and threw a 92-yard touchdown pass to Delane Hart-Johnson before leaving in the third quar-ter with a knee injury. However, Jordan tossed two key interceptions -- one in Arizona’s end zone and another deep in New Mexico terri-tory.

After Jordan’s departure, the Lobos then turned to a committee of running backs to get New Mexico back in the game.

Still, Arizona was able to hold star running back Jhurell Pressley to 75 rushing yards and no touchdowns.

The Nation’s Oldest Rivalry TrophyIn summer 2001, officials at Arizona and Arizona State received NCAA Division I-A designation for the 1899 Territorial Cup as the oldest trophy for a rivalry game in America. The annual Arizona-Arizona State winner obtains possession of the Cup for its Hall of Fame, a replica goes to the winning school’s president’s office, and two later trophies used over the years in the hard-fought rivalry are awarded to the winning coach and the Most Valuable Player.

On Thanksgiving Day in 1899, then Arizona Territorial Normal School defeated Arizona 11-2 in front of a reported 300 fans, and the Cup had its first curator. But over the years, the silver-plated antique prize was misplaced and supplanted by various other awards for the Big Game - the Governor’s Trophy (1953-1979), a “Victory” sculpture by artist Ben Goo, and a Saguaro Trophy, among others. Now, to ensure the safety of the original trophy, the actual Territorial Cup moves from one school to the other only under escort and the supervision of gloved archivists. Each year, members of the media vote on a Most Valuable Player at the conclu-sion of the game. Since 2008, the honor as been named the Bob Moran Most Valuable Player Award, named after the longtime East Valley Tribune sports re-porter who also worked at the Arizona Daily Star for 13 years and covered both schools as a beat writer and columnist. The Ben Goo Trophy, awarded from 1979 to 1998 as the game trophy, has become the physical award given to the game’s MVP. The Saguaro Trophy, a smaller bronze piece commissioned from artist Dora Perry in 1998, is presented and kept each year by the winning coach.

The University of Arizona leads the all-time series 49-40-1.

1943 & 1944World War II YearsNo teams fielded

Like many schools around the nation, Arizona did not field a football team during the World War II years of 1943 and 1944. The war began affect-ing college football programs as early as 1942, though the Wildcats managed a 6-4 record under coach Miles W. Casteel in their final season before the two-year hiatus.

Among those on the 1942 squad were William “Bill” Lowell (pictured), Rue Mattice and Stanley Petropolis, who served in World War II and were killed in action. Lowell served in the U.S. Marine Corps and died during the battle of Iwo Jima, a month-long conflict that killed more than 6,800 Americans. Petropolis was one of 19,000 American soldiers killed in the Battle of the Bulge, an attack

by Germany on France, Belgium and Luxembourg late in World War II. Mattice, a First Lieutenant in the U.S. Army, died shortly after Japan announced it would surrender, flying transport in the Philippines when he lost power to both engines.

In 2008, a memorial was built on campus to honor Lowell and fellow teammates from the 1942 football team who served in World War II. The memorial was inspired by J. David Lowell, Bill Lowell’s younger brother and a generous UA benefactor. Lowell donated $2.5 million in capital funding toward construction of the UA basketball/volleyball practice facility northeast of McKale Memorial Center. The memorial – which features a life-size bust of Bill Lowell – is located just west of the entrance to the Richard Jefferson Gymnasium.

David Lowell and his wife Edith later made additional contributions to the ath-letics department to fund construction of the Lowell-Stevens Football Facility, which is a five-story football building that houses the entire Wildcat football operation and encloses the north end of Arizona Stadium.

Conference Affiliation NotesArizona’s first conference affiliation was with the Border Intercollegiate Athletic Conference, founded in 1931. Charter members were Arizona, Arizona State Teachers College-Flagstaff (now NAU), Arizona State Teachers College-Tempe (now ASU), New Mexico and New Mexico A&M (now New Mexico State). Subsequent additions were Texas Tech (1932-35), Texas Mines (now UTEP, 1935-61), Hardin-Simmons (1941-61) and West Texas Teachers College (now West Texas A&M, 1941-61). The league was disbanded in 1961… Arizona played as an independent in 1961, transitioning to membership in the Western Athletic Conference, which began in July 1962. Charter members were Arizona, Arizona State, Utah, New Mexico, Brigham Young and Wyoming. In 1967 UTEP and Colorado State joined. Arizona and ASU departed for the Pacific-10 Conference beginning with the 1978 football season, joining California, UCLA, USC, Stanford, Oregon, Oregon State, Washington and Wash-ington State. Colorado and Utah accepted invitations to join the league in June 2010 and began play in the newly branded Pac-12 Conference in 2011.
