Fall has turned to winter and its starting to cool off and what’s cooler than being cool? Well if you were thinking ice cold you’re not exactly right. While I don’t expect it to snow again this year in the Old Pueblo, our fall obscure sports teams were in the words of Foreigner, [...]

It’s official, rauraur.com loves Kevin O’Neill. Sure, it sounds crazy to sing his praises after his team (and yes, at least for the time being, this is his team) disposed of a somewhat lousy Cal State Fullerton squad. But considering the potentially disastrous mixture of youth and uncertainty regarding the Lute situation, the [...]

After watching this video, I immediately did my Chuck Cecil 106-yard interception return imitation, running through three brick walls and a barbed wire fence in the process. I feel like I’m on PCP!
Thanks to Ryan Finley from the Arizona Daily Star for linking this in his blog.

Huzzah! Huzzah! We might see Lute Olson back on the sidelines as soon as Wednesday’s game against Cal State Fullerton. Who else would you rather have leading your troops into battle than the Hall of Fame Floor General… The Silver Haired Basketball Sergeant… The Commander in Chief of McKale’s, um, Army…
Wait, comparing athletic [...]

Moral victories are for losers. Still, it’s a lot easier to get excited about this team’s future when you’re told that Robin William’s knuckles Kirk Walters will be part of it. Was it a Naismith Award winning performance? No. But, considering Jordan Hill’s constant battle with the infoulenza bug (clever, no?), [...]

That one hurt. So many positives to take from Sunday’s overtime loss to fourth-ranked Kansas but despite Chase’s pseudo-breakout game, Kevin O’Neill and Jerryd Bayless’ hard nosed influence, and the much anticipated return of Captain Kirk Walters (3 boards, 1 block, and - most importantly - 19 semi-solid minutes!), we’re all left wanting just [...]

The Arizona-Kansas series has become quite a memorable one over the years. In 1996, the Jayhawks knocked the ‘Cats out of the Sweet Sixteen. Then in 1997, Arizona answered back by taking down the one loss, top seeded Kansas en route to the National Championship. This Sunday will mark the tenth [...]

It’s almost time to take our minds off the huge win over Oregon and concentrate on ASU (ok, not quite yet, look who’s number one). And because the word that starts with “B” and ends with “owl” is on everyone’s mind these days, here’s a link to the Tucson Citizen’s great break down of [...]

Couldn’t make it to last week’s upset over Oregon? No worries, Barrett took pictures (and it took him this long to figure out how to post them). More pictures after the break…
