CHASE FIELD The sidelines aren’t what football fans are accustomed to seeing. After all, there is a dugout behind the visitor’s bench, a bullpen behind the northern endzone, no nets behind the goal posts, and the scoreboard provides a section dedicated to runs, hits and errors. Chase Field, home of the Arizona Diamondbacks, is one of only a handful of Major League Baseball stadiums that has been configured to accommodate a football game. It’s one of the most innovative and fan-friendly Major League Baseball stadiums, Chase Field has served as the home of the Arizona Diamondbacks since the spring of 1998. Designed by renowned architect Ellerbe Becket, Chase Field is located in the heart of downtown Phoenix, only 4.3 miles from Phoenix Sky Harbor Airport, with Light Rail access on-site. During that time, it has hosted seven Cactus Bowls (formerly Insight Bowl) as well as various other sporting and live musical events, in addition to its baseball activities. Chase, formerly Bank One Ballpark, has played host to the 2001 World Series Champions and 2011 MLB All-Star Game. From its retractable roof – that is operated by a pair of 200-horsepower motors – to its signature swimming pool, Chase Field is

one of the Valley of the Sun’s most recognizable landmarks. The ballpark covers approximately 1,300,000 square feet, including the playing surface, and is divided into six levels: the field, main concourse, press level, suite club level, upper concourse and mechanical level.

STADIUM FACTS NAME: Chase Field FOOTBALL CONFIGURATION CAPACITY: 39,056 LARGEST CROWD: 49,519 on June 9, 2007 PLAYING SURFACE: Bull’s Eye Bermuda PRESS BOX: Located atop home plate facing southwest, the press box accommodates 200 people on two seating levels.

29TH ANNUAL CACTUS BOWL

KANSAS STATE WILDCATS

UCLA BRUINS

KANSAS STATE THIS SEASON To earn a trip to the Cactus Bowl, Kansas State won four of its last five games, including a pair of games that were won by double-digit comebacks against Texas Tech and Iowa State. This marked the first time in school history where the Wildcats won two games when trailing by 10 points in the fourth quarter. The Wildcats’ trip to the Cactus Bowl will be the eight-straight bowl appearance for the program.

UCLA THIS SEASON Coming out of the Pac-12 Conference, UCLA (6-6, 4-5) used an undefeated record at home to become bowl eligible and earn a trip to the Cactus Bowl for the first time in program history. After beating California, 30-27, on a field goal as time expired, UCLA will make its 36th overall bowl appearance (16-18-1) and this will be the 12th bowl the Bruins have participated in over the past 15 seasons.

KANSAS STATE HEAD COACH BILL SNYDER At the helm for 26 years, Kansas State Head Coach Bill Snyder has made 19 bowl game appearances and his 209 wins are the most of any active college football coach. Snyder holds an overall record of 209-110-1 and 123-84-1 in the Big 12 Conference. Over the past eight years under Snyder, K-State has totaled 67 victories – an average of 8.4 wins per year – advanced to eight-straight bowl games, won a conference championship in 2012 and finished fourth or better in the Big 12 Conference in five of the last seven years. Additionally, he became just the 26th coach in the history of college football to reach 209 career wins and only the sixth to do so while coaching at the same school for his entire career with a victory over Kansas in 2016.

MATCHUP HISTORY Kansas State will meet UCLA for only the fourth time in program history and first since 2015.

29TH ANNUAL CACTUS BOWL

CACTUS BOWL GAME PREVIEW (CONT.)

CACTUS BOWL GAME PREVIEW BY JACK MACGRUDER When UCLA and Kansas State met in a bowl game three years ago, the scoreboard broke and NFL scouts drooled. Kansas State-UCLA 2.0 could provide more of the game. When the teams meet in the 29th Annual Cactus Bowl, anything — but the mundane — seems possible. Both teams are on a roll. Kansas State has won four of its last five and UCLA has won two of three. Both teams can move the ball. UCLA is fifth in passing offense and 19th in total offense among FBS schools. Points are not a problem. UCLA has scored 405, Kansas State 385. Rounding up, that works out to a 34-32 final. Well within the statistical margin of error. And a number that might strike some as low. The star power begins with UCLA quarterback Josh Rosen, who is considered a certain top 10

8

selection in the NFL draft if he foregoes his senior season. One scouting service speculated that he would be the first player off the board. It is not hard to figure. Rosen has passed for 3,717 yards and 26 touchdowns this season despite missing time with various bumps and bruises. His resume includes some big numbers. He has passed for at least 400 yards in four games this season and engineered the most impressive comeback in school history when he threw for a career-high 491 yards and four touchdowns in a 4544 victory over Texas A&M in the first game of the season. Rosen threw four touchdown passes, including a fake-spike scoring toss, in the final 13:22 as the Bruins overcame a 4417 deficit for the biggest comeback in program history. Rosen passed for 292 yards in the fourth quarter. Kansas State has used three starting quarterbacks because of a knee injury to No. 1 Jesse Ertz, a senior who was the MVP of the 33-28 Texas Bowl victory over Texas A&M last season, and all have performed well. Sophomore Alex Delton started four games before freshman Skylar Thompson took over for the final three.

Thompson threw for 204 yards and three touchdowns in a 45-40 victory over then-No. 10 Oklahoma State on Nov. 18. His quarterback efficiency rating in five games is 152.8. That was the day Rosen passed for 421 yards and three touchdowns in a 28-23 loss to archrival USC. His efficiency rating is 146.4. Look out. UCLA will be led by offensive coordinator and interim head coach Jedd Fisch, who took over when Mora was dismissed days after the end of the regular season. Former Oregon coach Chip Kelly has been named the Bruins’ new head coach. “Our players and coaches have been through a lot the last few weeks, and to be able to unite one last time in 2017 and … compete in this football game is just really exciting for all of us. We’ve got a team that is really excited for the challenge, and we know it’s going to be a challenge. We are playing this game as the 2017 Bruins… All of our focus will be on what we have done and what we’ve built and what we’ve established.” Kansas State coach Bill Snyder turned the Wildcats’ program around when he arrived in 1989, beginning with a radical redshirt program that led to previously unknown heights — 11 consecutive bowl games and six 11-win seasons in a span of seven years. He retired in 2005, then turned the program around again when he was coaxed back three years later. Snyder, who will be coaching his 19th bowl game, is one of sixcoaches to win at least 200 games while spending his entire career at one school. The Wildcats, who lost dual-threat Ertz five games into the season, have lost only to No. 23 West Virginia in their last five games. Their two most recent defeats before that came against national playoff semifinalist No. 2 Oklahoma and top 15 team TCU. “I’m certainly pleased with the progress our program made during the course of the latter part of the season,” Snyder said. “UCLA is a very fine football team that went through some difficult times through the course of the season. They’re more than a formidable opponent.” If this game is anything like their first bowl matchup, it will be a doozy. UCLA outlasted the Wildcats, 40-35, in the Alamo Bowl following the 2014 season, a game of distinct halves. Behind current Chandler native Brett Hundley, the Bruins rolled to a 31-6 halftime lead. Kansas State scored 22 of the next 25 points to get back into the game. Quarterback Jake Waters completed 31-of-48 passes for 388 yards and two touchdowns, and wide receiver

Tyler Lockett had 13 receptions for 164 yards and two scores. “They were a very fine football team,” Snyder said. UCLA has known success in this corner of Arizona, although it has played only two bowl games here, the last in 1984. While this is the Bruins’ first Cactus Bowl, they are undefeated in two Fiesta Bowl appearances, both played at Sun Devil Stadium, about nine miles east of Chase Field. UCLA tied Arkansas, 10-10, to conclude the 1978 season and beat Miami, 39-37, on New Year’s Day in 1985. Each game produced an unexpected UCLA hero, Hollywood-style. Bruins’ running backs James Owens rushed for 121 yards and Theotis Brown added 84 against Arkansas, but it was quarterback Steve Bukich who made the decisive play in his first start of the season. Bukich tied the game on a 15-yard touchdown run with 8:32 remaining, forcing the stalemate. Owens was named the game’s MVP. Six seasons later, another star emerged. Halfback Gaston Green, another first-time starter in a bowl game, rushed for 144 yards and two touchdowns and was named the offensive player of the game in the wild victory over Miami. Green scored on runs of six and 72 yards and the Bruins led by 12 in the fourth quarter before Miami, which was the defending national champion and was quarterbacked by Bernie Kosar, rallied to take a two-point lead. John Lee kicked a 22-yard field goal to for the final margin, and the Bruins forced a fumble on Miami’s final drive to seal the victory. Kansas State has split its six games in the northern Sonoran desert, including once when the game was played in Tucson. The Wildcats are 2-1 in the Fiesta and 1-2 in the Cactus. They played here twice in 359 days in their two most recent visits, when they followed a 35-17 loss to Oregon in the Fiesta Bowl on Jan. 3, 2013 with a decisive 31-14 victory over Michigan on Dec. 28 of the same year. Lockett was the offensive MVP in the victory over Michigan, with 10 receptions for 116 yards and three touchdowns, all from Waters. The two combined for touchdowns on the Wildcats’ first three possessions for a 21-6 halftime lead, with Lockett’s 40-yard kickoff return providing field position for the second score. Kansas State swept the awards voting in that game, as defensive back Dante Barnett was named the offensive MVP.

The Pac-12 Conference is headquartered in San Francisco, California in the SOMA district. Currently, the Pac-12 sponsors 11 men’s sports and 13 women’s sports, with women’s lacrosse a new addition for the 2017-18 academic year and beach volleyball having been added in 2015-16. Additionally, the Conference is a member of the Mountain Pacific Sports Federation (MPSF) in four other men’s sports and two women’s sports. Built on a firm foundation of academic excellence and superior athletic performance, the Pac-12 Conference renewed its undisputed claim as the Conference of Champions® in 2016-17, becoming the first conference to win 500 NCAA Championships. The Pac-12 led the nation in 2016-17 with 13 NCAA crowns. The Pac-12 has led or tied the nation in NCAA Championships in 51 of the last 57 years, the only exceptions being in 1980-81, 1988-89, 1990-91 and 1995-96 when the Conference finished second, and only twice finished third in 1998-99 and 2004-05.

The Big 12 Conference office is headquartered in Irving, Texas. In its first 20 years, the Big 12 distributed more than $2.8 billion to its member institutions. The Big 12 sponsors 23 sports, Men’s squads are baseball, basketball, cross country, football, golf, indoor track & field, outdoor track & field, swimming & diving, tennis and wrestling. Women’s teams are fielded in basketball, cross country, equestrian, golf, gymnastics, indoor track & field, outdoor track & field, rowing, soccer, softball, swimming & diving, tennis and volleyball. Big 12 institutions create a league that encompasses five states and nearly 38 million people. The 10-member Big 12 is the only conference in the nation to determine its champion in all sports directly on the field of play in a round-robin schedule. Since the Big 12 began competition in 1996-97, the league boasts 57 team and 625 individual national championships.

• • •

For the 12th-consecutive year, the Pac-12 had the most or tied for the most NCAA titles of any conference in the country, winning at least six every year since 2000-01. No other conference has won double-digit NCAA crowns in a single year, the Pac-12 doing so nine times, including a record 14 in 1996-97. Spanning over a century of outstanding athletics achievements, The Pac-12 has claimed 501 NCAA Championships (297 men’s, 174 women’s, 30 combined), nearly 200 more than the next league. It was also the first to win 400 championships then surpassed 450 when Colorado and Utah joined the league in 2010-11. On the women’s side, the story is much the same. Since the NCAA began conducting women’s championships 36 years ago, Pac-12 members have claimed at least four national titles in a single season on 26 occasions, including a current streak of 17-consecutive years, dating back to 2000.

In 2012, the Big 12 sent a national-record 90 percent of its teams to bowl games. The Big 12 claims six Heisman Trophy winners since 1996 and enjoyed a finalist in 13 of the last 21 seasons – including 2017 with Oklahoma’s Baker Mayfield winning the title. Overall, more than 4,800 Big 12 student-athletes have earned all-America recognition. During its first 20 years, the Big 12 claimed a national team championship in 17 of the sports its sponsors. In its short history, the Big 12 has had over 600 Academic All-American recipients, averaging more than 30 each season.
