There will also be a recognition of the '97 National Championship team at halftime of the USC game. The game against the Trojans in Arizona Stadium is part of Family Weekend.

I remember when I used to think the whole 10 pm EST start time was an inconvenience....and now I'm considering waking up at 4 am CET to stream the Red-Blue game (which I've never actually had the chance to watch before).

Fuck man, trying to watch this season is gonna blow donkey dick

p12 network will also be re-airing the red-blue game tonight at 10pm PDT and tomorrow (saturday) at 11pm PDT, plus a whole bunch of replays starting on tuesday morning - although the game will probably feel like ancient history by then.

Is Dickerson never coming back to AZ to say hi? Last I heard he was in the UAE investing in hotels or something.

Main Event · Post by **Main Event** » Fri Oct 14, 2016 2:38 pm

He was at Red Blue like 2-3 years ago

Jefe · Post by **Jefe** » Fri Oct 14, 2016 2:48 pm

Im trying to remember if he made it to the event at the Fox Theater a few years ago when they showed the '97 game. I dont think he did

DailyWildcats says he will be here...

Just scoping out the "competition." Want to see if my expectations of UA this year should rise or fall.

Then again, we're not the ones watching a not really rival's scrimmage on a Friday night on a tiny cable channel.
