The Trip to Washington
Coming off a bye week, Arizona is now looking to maintain their undefeated conference record with a trip to Washington. Things looked good for the ‘Cats this weekend as Central Michigan, NAU, Iowa, and Oregon State (smashing ASU in Tempe…party) all pulled off victories.

Nick Foles and His Locks of Victory
After the game at Iowa, RauRaur optimism hit a career low (not counting the John Mackovic era). Then on came Nick Foles and his locks of greatness.

More Fantasy (YA!)
We’ve already discussed how former Wildcats are projected to perform in the cutthroat business that is fantasy football. But how about in fantasy sports’ Johnny-come-lately competition, collegiate fantasy football? With the numbers Arizona’s offense (fingers crossed) figures to produce, you could possibly manage players you love AND dominate your league. It’s like being a [...]
