The 2018 Arizona Football season schedule was released today.

Arizona Football is wrapping up their 2017 regular season play with Oregon and Arizona State. Fans are already excited, but now they have a lot more to look forward to in 2018, the schedule was published today.

Arizona starts the 2018 season with BYU at home, then travels to Houston for a rematch with the University of Houston. Remember? The team the Wildcats narrowly lost by three points too (16-19? The game a lot of folks thought maybe, just maybe, Khalil Tate should have finished the game? Yes, that Houston.

Arizona has been given an opportunity to beat Oregon at home, and more importantly, ASWHO at the end of the season. The Oregon game will be Arizona’s homecoming.

Pac-12 play kicks off with a trip to Oregon State who will be better than this season depending on the coaching situation which will determine the team’s ability to recruit.

Arizona’s bye week comes late this season between the Colorado home game on November 2nd, and the Washington State away game on November 17th.

Halloween weekend this year falls on a Saturday that the Oregon Ducks travel to Tucson for hopefully a revenge match. That is, if Arizona beats the crap out of Taggart’s Ducks this weekend, then they will be coming to a dry city to seek redemption.

The Wildcats will look to repeat in Pasadena, Tate will want to prove he can dominate this venue. Last season he got his first shot at quarterback after Brandon Dawkins went down with a rib injury, and scored two touchdowns but the Wildcats couldn’t pull out the win. Along with USC, Serra HS players go to UCLA as well as players who couldn’t stop him in high school from other teams in Southern California.

Arizona will play seven home games and two Friday night games. The first Friday night game will be against Utah in Utah on Oct. 12. The second will be against Colorado at home on Nov. 3.
