They are the ones trying to prove that they belong on a big national stage. We are not. We won a BCS game last year, they did not. We are in the top 10, they are not.
We can lose this game, drop a little bit in the polls and work our way back into being an elite team, and no one will talk about a bad loss in Arizona.
If Arizona loses, the talk will be how they just aren't there as a program yet. They can win the Pac 10, but they will talk about how when they had the opportunity to take that step, they didn't.
My point is that the pressure is on Arizona. The Hawks should be nice and relaxed and just come out and play their game. They've been on this stage, and they've been on the road and beaten better teams.
This is unchartered territory for Arizona, and it wouldn't surprise me at all to see them make some mistakes from pressing to hard.
