In nearly 10 years the Wildcats were at achieving a Bowls title shot. QB Willie Tuitama blossom, completing 62.4 percent of his passes for 3,683 yards and 28 touchdowns, the team fills pretty confident.
The Wildcats closed out last season with three wins in their last four games, and coach Stoops is hoping that the energy from last season's pitch will carry over into the opening of the '08 campaign.
Two games to review are Idaho and Toledo, so there is a strong possibility that the Wildcats jump out of the gates with some positive outings.
However, they are likely to be the only easy home matchups for Arizona, which will also have to battle Washington, California, USC, Oregon State, and Arizona State at home.
All and all the Wildcats will have to rely heavily on their new found passing attack, but considering all the inexperience surrounding the defense, it is likely Arizona will be no more than a .500 team.
