Arizona is one of 12 FBS teams returning its head coach, offensive coordinator, defensive coordinator, and starting quarterback from last season.

Noah Fifita returns as Arizona's fifth-year quarterback and the nation's active career touchdown-pass leader while pursuing the program's all-time passing-yardage record.

Arizona's secondary lost four NFL draft picks after a 22-interception season, but the new defensive-back room still brings 32 career interceptions.

The Arizona preview expects the Wildcats to establish the run early and force multiple turnovers against an NAU team with a rebuilt offensive line and new coordinators.

One prediction wonders whether Seth Doege will let Fifita throw heavily or keep the offense more run-focused before Arizona plays BYU next week.
