The game with Cal will be a big one as we will have played Iowa the week before which is a huge game then you guys are the first conference game. Huge couple of weeks. The plus for us is that it's still a little warm in September - bring lots of water and leave the long sleeve clothing at home.

Look forward to the game on 9/25 as it always seems to be a very intense game.

If so would you be upset if somebody else has them ranked 50th?" I dont know if we're #31 good, but I think we're top 40 good, and certainly top 50. I was upset that Rivals had us 58th, but it's not a big deal. I wouldn't complain about top 50 right now, considering we've hovered around 117-120/120 for almost the entire last 10 years. “So Jeff, do you agree with Phil Steele as it relates to where he has Temple ranked?

UW hasn’t won a road game in over 2 years. You also won’t have the home town refs in the review booth either" Now I'm just offended, dc4azcats! How did you get U-Dub fan from "I guess I can make other plans for 9/25"? Or my name? “UW – You return 9 starters from one of the worse D’s in the conference. UW hasn’t won a road game in over 2 years. You also won’t have the home town refs in the review booth either”

I really do not see it happening either though your AD has violated one of my cardinal rules of life - "if you are a BSC conference school, do not schedule away games at Troy, MTSU, Toledo or Louisiana- Lafayette. (or New Mexico I might add) It's right there between "do not get involved in land wars in Asia" and "do not date a woman who sends her food back at restaurants or owns a horse." Bear down. dc4azcats- just going with the hard count to slow the fierce Wildcat rush on here.

I honestly meant to say a possible 6 wins but I'll stand behind my original statement. Its a favorable schedule for Arizona and the Zona Zoo will be rocking!!! <em>Paul: No doubt about the latter.

When you give up 38 and only score 30 - you're in trouble. Stoops is from Ohio and this will be a huge game for him personally - I seriously doubt that Arizona will be looking past Toledo.

I said we had 5 conference home games not that we would win 5. That being said - I'll certainly take our chances that we have another good season at home. Let's see OSU - we beat them LY in Corvallis and we have a bye week before we play them this year. While Arizona has a bye - the beavs play assu. Arizona held Quizz to 85 yards rushing LY - how about you guys? 159 on 18 carries and 2 TD's. Cal - You do know that we've beat Cal 2 straight at home right? Both times Cal was ranked 8th and 25th respectively. UW - You return 9 starters from one of the worse D's in the conference. UW hasn't won a road game in over 2 years. You also won't have the home town refs in the review booth either. I wonder if that will get any hype before our game? Arizona plays Wazzu the week before and UW plays Oregon State. Just saying. SC - we beat them at SC LY. The last time SC came to Tucson it was a 17-10 game and a guy named Sanchez was the QB. Assu - you left them out? We've won 2 straight. oskigodumb – did I say that we would win all 5 conference home games? I said we had 5 conference home games not that we would win 5.

OSU – we beat them LY in Corvallis and we have a bye week before we play them this year. While Arizona has a bye – the beavs play assu. Arizona held Quizz to 85 yards rushing LY – how about you guys? 159 on 18 carries and 2 TD’s.

Cal – You do know that we’ve beat Cal 2 straight at home right? Both times Cal was ranked 8th and 25th respectively.

UW – You return 9 starters from one of the worse D’s in the conference. UW hasn’t won a road game in over 2 years. You also won’t have the home town refs in the review booth either. I wonder if that will get any hype before our game? Arizona plays Wazzu the week before and UW plays Oregon State. Just saying.

SC – we beat them at SC LY. The last time SC came to Tucson it was a 17-10 game and a guy named Sanchez was the QB.

Assu – you left them out? We’ve won 2 straight.
