11. Arizona 49, Cal 45 (Sept. 20)
This was one of many pieces of evidence suggesting the best football on a given Saturday happens after most people fall asleep. Facing an 18-point deficit through three quarters, Arizona rung up 36 in the final frame -- including a 47-yard Hail Mary as time expired -- to beat the Bears and remain unbeaten. -- CJ
8. Arizona 31, Oregon 24 (Oct. 2)
Take your pick of plays from Arizona’s enormous upset of Oregon in early October, but the excessive celebration penalty given to Ducks linebacker Tony Washington with the Wildcats driving (which led to a touchdown) still stands out. This result, which featured breakout performances from quarterback Anu Solomon, linebacker Scooby Wright III and tailback Terris Jones-Grigsby, showed the Wildcats were officially ahead of schedule. Coach Rich Rodriguez’s team ended up winning 10 games, playing for the Pac-12 title and earning a trip to the Fiesta Bowl. It will be fun to see what they do in 2015. -- MR
