The Arizona Wildcats come into the Alamo Bowl in the midst of a painful four-game losing streak. After starting the season strong, Arizona skidding to a halt, falling from 7-1 to 7-5. Even with the season grinding to a halt, SB Nation’s Arizona Desert Swarm expressed optimism ahead of Wednesday’s match-up in San Antonio.
Alamo Bowl, Oklahoma St. Vs. Arizona: Wildcats Predict A Win, Cowboys Examine Arizona History
I think that this game is one where Arizona fans don’t know much about Oklahoma State and surprise, surprise, Oklahoma State fans have no clue about Arizona’s team. This will be a great battle in San Antonio with an indoor atmosphere (with alcohol! Yeah San Antonio). I am going to predict that Arizona will win. The time off and the “motivation” for the team to emerge from the shadow of their four losses should be enough to overcome great play making ability of Blackmon.
And, oh yeah, they predict a win and redemption for kicker Alex Zendejas after a rough outing in the Wildcats season-finale against rival Arizona State.
SB Nation’s Cowboys Ride For Free took a different approach, putting together a love/hate list on famous Arizona alumni, fans and players. On the love side: Nick Foles, Jennie Finch, Natalie Gulbis and Rufus, the former live mascot of the Wildcats. On the hate side: Nichole Richie, Kourtney Kardashian and Ricky Elmore.
