Arizona quarterback Noah Fifita was able to be a game manager as Arizona ran for 183 yards on 33 carries and four touchdowns in the season-opening 40-6 win over Hawaii on Saturday. In 2024, Fifita had two games with a worse completion percentage and fewer yards than he had versus Hawaii. The 7.0 yards per attempt Fifita averaged versus Hawai'i was better than all but three 2024 performances. Luke Wysong who entered 2025 projected as the top Arizona WR had one reception for seven yards versus Hawaii. Kansas State allowed 252 passing yards to North Dakota.
