The Arizona Wildcats may have lost three straight games, and their bowl hopes are getting smaller by the week, but there’s still a lot to be excited about for Saturday’s game against the Oregon State Beavers.
For one, it’s Homecoming. It’s a day game, the first at home since last year’s Territorial Cup, and Arizona is set to wear special throwback jerseys honoring the Desert Swarm era.
And it will mark the debut of new defensive coordinator Chuck Cecil, elevated from an analyst role on Sunday after Kevin Sumlin fired Marcel Yates along with linebackers coach John Rushing (with former Arizona LB Hank Hobson taking over his job).
