Game Recap
Willie Tuitama threw for 325 yards and two touchdowns Saturday night as Arizona won its first bowl game in 10 years, 31-21 over No. 17 BYU in the Las Vegas Bowl. The Wildcats stifled BYU quarterback Max Hall throughout the game, forcing him to scramble often, lose a fumble and throw an interception. Tuitama threw a 71-yard pass to Terrell Turner that set up the first score, a 37-yard touchdown to Delashaun Dean that gave the Wildcats the lead for good, and a 24-yard strike to Chris Gronkowski that sent Cougars fans toward the exits.

Team Reports
  • BYU: The Cougars were the early-season favorite as the non-BCS conference team most likely to land in a BCS bowl as an at-large qualifier. That dream went through the wood chipper after a 32-7 loss at Mountain West Conference foe TCU in mid-October. More

  • Arizona: The Wildcats go to their first bowl game in 10 years, last experiencing postseason football in a 23-20 win over Nebraska in the 1998 Holiday Bowl. An offensive shootout should be expected. That used to be bad news for the Wildcats, but UA scored at least 31 points in each of its seven victories. More
