Result:
WIN

The Arizona Wildcats may have something in Coach Rodriguez. He is in his third year at Arizona, and has won eight games in each of the first two seasons. One of the eight wins last season was against then ranked #5 Oregon, as he looks to take the program to greater heights. Arizona does not return their QB, but looking at their spring game, the offense won by scoring 58 points, which might say they are going to be fine on offense. UNLV earned the right to a Bowl game a year ago for the first time since the 2000 season. They won five more games than the previous year, but ominously hanging over the improvement was a ranking of #103 two years ago to just #96 last year. There is also a dark cloud looming over the program, as UNLV's APR scores are expected to get them a ban from potential Bowl participation, and that will be a motivation killer. This is a team that is 13-80 straight-up as a road dog in their last 93, and they are in over their heads in this one once again. All Arizona in this one.
