Arizona handles Cal....again, 37-6

Tucson, AZ - The Wildcats march to a potential national title continued today with a big victory over Cal. The Wildcats have not lost to the Golden Bears under Coach Stoops, and today was no exception.

Xavier Smith ran for over 200 yards against Cal's amazingly weak run defense. But Arizona's defense was absolutley stifling, and it looks like it might be the defense which is the last piece of the national championship puzzle. It's all about Tuitama, Abdullah, Nakfoor, Xavier Smith and the Defense....

A google search for Nakfoor turned up this girl, who goes to Kennesaw, but she's probably transferring to Arizona to be with her brother....or join.

RECUITING ALERT

Ben Weaver, TE, Duluth, GA

#1 TE in the Nation, 6'4", 235 lbs, 4.69 40, Benches 360, A+ Hands, Average discipline which is good enough for me.

Duluth, GA is located near a golf course, it is one of the countless, endless, bland suburbs of Atlanta. The city has an average income of $64,000, it's fairly diverse with only 64% white majority...
he probably went to high school here which would explain why he wants to be a Wildcat ("I ain't got time to learn a new team name")...holy crap, the high school team has their own website. and they have a booster club. So it looks like Duluth has a lot going on as a city, I bet the IHOP is outta control on Friday morning with discussion of how the 16 year old boys will play.

Ben Weaver hopes to study Sociology or General Studies at Arizona.

This is a great recruiting class...although I desperately need an OL and an linebacker in this regular recruiting season...

Undefeated Team news

1. Miami - BYE
2. Arizona - that's right - beats CAL
3. Alabama beats LSU 31-24
4. Louisville beats UConn 45-7
8. Penn State loses to Michigan 42-32
9. Texas loses to Tennessee 35-9 (yes)
BUT the big news
our favorite underdog, Florida Atlantic, beat North Texas 35-14, and are now 9-0 and ranked #19!! Lets go OWLS!!! - Bullshit- their coach is only #4 in the coach of the year award, he isn't even a finalist. Look at their tiny stadium (right), Jarvis played to bigger crowds...

Arizona is now #2 in all polls and the BCS, and as it stands, if they can beat Unranked Oregon on the road, and #22 Arizona State at home, they will be headed to the national title game....nerves are VERY high...Oregon has a spell over Arizona, and Arizona State is as unpredictable a game as there ever was, they would love to ruin the Wildcats shot at a first ever BCS bowl, National Title bid and Pac Ten Title...a win over Oregon clinches a Pac Ten title, since Arizona State already has 2 conference losses, and USC has 1 (to Arizona) which would break the tie...


BOWL PROJECTIONS
Florida Atlantic to go to the Emerald Bowl against Akron
Florida INTERNATIONAL to go to the Liberty Bowl againt Rice

tough call, which is better?

also - LSU and Florida State are slated for the music city bowl, that sounds like a better game than Kentucky-Syracuse, but that's just me...
