Arizona sophomore linebacker Scooby Wright is a Walter Camp All-American. The NCAA recognizes the All-America teams selected by the AP, AFCA, FWAA, Sporting News, and the Walter Camp Football Foundation to determine consensus All-Americans. If three of these organizations select a player to their first team, he automatically receives the “consensus” honor. If a player is named an All-American by all five organizations, he receives “unanimous All-American” recognition.

With Michigan’s recent losses at home to New Jersey Institute of Technology and Eastern Michigan, Arizona hopes to withstand a challenge from the Wolverines away from their arena. Some times it’s best for a struggling team to hit the road and bond.
Sean Miller on Michigan: "They’re going hit their stride this year and be a really good team. I just don’t want it to happen on Saturday."
