After finishing the 2023 season on a seven-game winning streak including an Alamo Bowl victory against Oklahoma, Arizona hopes to carry that momentum into 2024.
However, the domino effect of Nick Saban leaving Alabama and Kalen DeBoer replacing him led Arizona head coach Jedd Fisch to accept a job at Washington, taking several members of his roster, staff and recruiting class with him.
Now it's time for first-year head coach Brent Brennan to take the reins of the Wildcats, still left with a talented roster and high expectations.

Quarterback Noah Fifita was the Pac-12's Offensive Freshman of the Year last season after completing a school-record 72 percent of his passes. He'll have one of the best receivers in the nation to throw to in Tetairoa McMillan, who had 90 receptions for 1,402 yards. The Wildcats' leading rusher from 2023, Jonah Coleman, transferred to Washington, leaving the starting jobs up for grabs.
The defense returns multiple star players including the linebacker Jacob Manu, the Pac-12's leading tackler from last season, and All-America cornerback Tacario Davis.
The Wildcats are flying under the radar as dark horse contenders for the Big 12 title, but they'll have to get through some difficult matchups on the road including Utah, UCF and TCU. Will Arizona build upon its success from 2023 with a new head coach?
