Sun Bowl
Dec. 28, 1968: Wildcats safety Doug Schlueter (35) picks off an Auburn pass, one of the few bright spots for Arizona in El Paso. The Wildcats throw a Sun Bowl-record eight interceptions — six by Bruce Lee — but the score is still tied at halftime 10-10 after Lee's late 12-yard TD pass to Hal Arnanson. The Wildcats give up 24 points in the second half, including a 32-yard Buddy McClinton interception return. Arizona, coached by Darrell Mudra, finishes 8-3 under captains Thomas Nelson and Mike Moody.
Here's a look at Arizona's bowl-game appearances since its first in 1921.
