Game Notes

  • 200th victory in program history

Heavy, unseasonal rains drenched the stadium be fore the kickoff, cutting the crowd to 31,000 for the pivotal contest. Arizona stayed with the ground game, netting 194 yards and one touchdown. Each team kicked three field goals and scored one touchdown to put the score at 16-16. With 18-seconds remaining in the game, Gifford Nielsen fought off some charging linemen and scrambled wide, where he threw a desperation pass that went over the hands of two Arizona defenders and into the arms of split end George Harris who stepped into the end zone for the winning touchdown with just :03 showing on the clock. This could be regarded as a key win for the Cougars, since both BYU and Arizona were considered contenders for the WAC title. Arizona finished 5-6 for the year.
