2014 Arizona Wildcat Football

[TJ]

All sorts of fail on the field tonight.

Ummm.. did we just have a 36 point 4th quarter and win at the buzzer?!

I cant believe they came back and won... I flipped over to the Oregon game with Arizona down 3 scores. I didnt flip back until the hail mary was in the air... and I was really confused for a good 5 seconds. "wait... what? Is this a highlight of some previous year?"

That game did not inspire a lot of confidence though... our pass defense is scary bad. Oregon will probably put up 600+ yards next week.

Wow, awesome comeback win. Pretty incredible.

 

[AzStevenCal]

That's a great comeback for the Wildcats.

Oregon looked bad last night, I watched the whole game. I think Arizona's secondary is probably better than WSU, they were horrible. But they sacked Mariota 6 times. Oregon's OL is pretty beat up, they are starting freshman and a walk on offensive tackles.

If it wasn't for a couple of WSU miscues, and a horrible non-call on a clear pass interference play in the closing minutes, Oregon would have lost last night. Their D was shredded by Holliday and Solomon may be able to do the same.

Better to be 4-0 and not 3-1.

I don't think oregon is a legit #2 seed in CFB this season, but they'll be ready to play Zona in Eugene. Revenge factor after the embarrassment they suffered last season.

I was shocked to see facebook posts about Wildcat fans saying they won after I figured the game was over. I thought it was over after the 1st half. Great comeback by the Wildcats. As for Oregon, they always have a let down game or 2 every year. The outcome is usually a win, but we know what can happen like at UofA last year...

Oregon struggled to put away a lowly Wyoming team at home and WSU. Those are your let downs so far.

Our only hope is for Mariotta to have a crappy game like last season.

How did every Cal defender have a brain fart at once? Why are you BEHIND the UofA receiver? Why are you trying to tackle him? Swat the ball, swat at his arms, anything. What a bizarre play and game.

What's crazy too is look at the stands- half empty. Everyone probably left after the 3rd qtr thinking it was over. 36 points in 1 qtr, recovered onside kick, hail mary, etc... You can't even script a movie this good! As an 100% ASU fan, congrats to U of A and the amazing come back. As Doug said today on Doug and Wolf, Az is 10-0 today. Sounds pretty cool to have all our teams undefeated in this state. Wonder when (or if) this has ever happened??

That is great!

this is a recurring issue for all night time UofA games. The game is just the beginning of a long night of intoxication (Arizona is a dry campus and beer is not served at the game), and the students want to get back to their parties. Compounded by the fact that we were getting bludgeoned until the 4th quarter, it's hard to fault them for leaving.

Once the temperature starts to cool off and we play some day games, the attendance will improve. Next home game is against USC, and I guarantee there will be 50k+ in attendance.

True, and maybe I'd feel different if I hadn't been a chump and missed all but the final .2 seconds of the comeback. This Cal play was equally as crazy as any finish in school history. I recall how pumped I was after the Ortege Jenkins flip vs Washington and this, I just about peed myself, but the stakes in that game felt a lot bigger than this past weekend.

Up in the third quarter at #2 Oregon and not one post during the game?!

BEAR DOWN!!! It's 1AM out East (travelling on business) and I might wake up the whole hotel if we win!!

 

[Iceman]

Oregon playing so flat. Almost like they don't want to be out there.

Going down to the wire

I feel like UofA has one crazy upset in football every year, its truly bizarre. Back all through the Stoops years it seemed like even if they were a mediocre 6-6 team they'd have some crazy win over a top team. But then they'll lose to lesser teams (or in the case of the Cal game, nearly lose) and just have OK seasons.

ASU is just the opposite, beats the team its supposed to beat (most times), wilts against the bigger teams. Very strange.

Scooby Wright is a FOOTBALL player! Great game!!

UofA has playmakers on both sides of the ball. ASU does not...
