The Arizona Wildcats (3-3, 1-2 Big 12) will welcome the Colorado Buffaloes (4-2, 2-1) to Arizona Stadium on Saturday. Arizona coach Brent Brennan aims to get the team back on track after losing 41-19 to the then-No. 14 BYU Cougars last weekend. Quarterback Noah Fifita will start for Arizona against Coach Prime's Buffaloes.

Fifita had a rough performance against the BYU defense. He ended the blowout loss with one touchdown and three interceptions. He's struggled this season but will have a chance to turn things around against the Buffaloes (4-2, 2-1). Heisman Trophy contender Travis Hunter, an elite cornerback, will be in action, so Fifita must be cautious throwing in his direction.
