ZIEGLER FIESTA BOWL MUSEUM & CENTER 7135 E. Camelback Rd., Suite 190 Scottsdale, AZ 85251

S TA DIUM FAC T S CAPACITY: 72,158 PLAYING SURFACE: Natural grass (Tifway 419 Bermuda hybrid planted in early May, 2006 using stolons in an 11” bed of USGA sand mix with inclusions)

S TATE FA RM STAD IUM With its retractable field and roof, Glendale’s State Farm Stadium is unlike any other venue in North America.

The exterior design was the vision of renowned architect Peter Eisenman along with HOK Sport. The basic form of the design takes its cue from a barrel cactus and offers alternating vertical slots with smooth panels.

The stadium was constructed with a roof containing two large panels that retract to uncover the entire playing field.

The stadium’s most unique feature is a rollout field consisting of a 152,000 square-foot concrete stadium floor with an embedded utility grid. The natural grass field rests in a retractable, 12-million pound tray outside the stadium until game day for maximum sun exposure and nourishment. The tray takes approximately 45 minutes to move inside the stadium and rests atop tracks as it rolls in and out on a steel wheel set powered by small electric motors.

LIGHTING: 700 Musco pre-aimed sports lights providing over one millionwatts of light.

STADIUM HEIGHT: 233 feet from the playing surface to the top of the roof; approximately 19 stories high.

The stadium has permanent seating for 63,000 but expands to hold approximately 73,000 for mega-events like the PlayStation® Fiesta Bowl, College Football National Championship game and the Super Bowl. The stadium has a total of 88 luxury suites on two levels, club seating for 7,000 with access to private club lounge areas, lower bowl seating for 29,000 and upper deck seating for approximately 26,000 accommodate patrons. All seats are individual chairs with armrests and cup holders.

The press box, located in the southwest corner, accommodates approximately 154 working media members. There is also a national television broadcast booth, a home coaches booth, a visiting coaches booth, an instant replay booth, an officials booth, a scoreboard and public address control booth, a stats booth and four radio booths.

The 2011 Bowl Championship Series (BCS) National Championship Game pitting Auburn and Oregon drew 78,603 fans, the largest crowd in the history of State Farm Stadium.

THE PLAN In 2002 the Fiesta Bowl Board of Directors decided it needed a more unique trophy to compete with the trophies of the other national bowls – something that would make a statement.

The original Fiesta Bowl Trophy was small, made of wood and slightly resembled the Heisman Trophy. Recognizing the need for something slightly more impressive, the board had in mind the perfect man for the job. Al Molina, a Fiesta Bowl Yellow Jacket Committee member, happened to be an internationallyrecognized jeweler. They tasked Molina with, what would become, a masterpiece of a trophy. With no budget, no guidelines and free rein over the design, Molina and members of the executive committee set out to create a truly historical work of art. Molina, refusing to create anything short of a masterpiece, told the board he would make the trophy on his own “nickel.”

THE CREATION With just a little more than three months to bring the idea life, a team of experts set to work under the leadership of Al Molina and head designer Christopher Olson, who is considered the “champion of the trophy.” The trophy’s foundation entailed an intricate fabrication of five different shades of marble and granite, upholding the stunning complexities of the trophy. The center column was created using lapis lazuli, one of the most sought after stones in the world. Created to simulate the Arizona sunset, it was hand-carved in 18-karat yellow, green, red, peach and white gold. The sterling silver dome alone, enhanced with multi-colored windows created in jeweler’s enamel, took more than 96 hours to complete.

Todd McFarlane, Grammy- and Emmy-winning producer/director and founder of one of America’s top action figure manufactures, McFarlane Toys, used his rare talent for detail and accuracy to create the football players. He cast the eight perfectly-designed players in sterling silver to live on each side and corner of the structure. Ken Wilson, a former Disney “Imagineer” and inventor of the infamous lightsabers used in Star Wars, created the one-of-a-

kind LED lighting display within the trophy.

Weighing more than 200 pounds, the trophy design team knew even the strongest football team wouldn’t be able to hold it up in celebration after their Fiesta Bowl victory. This realization sparked the idea of the removable football, but not just any ole’ football.

Made of 18-karat gold with jeweler’s enameled Fiesta Bowl sunburst marks, this football flaunts 2,187 pavé-set diamonds. The stones weigh a total of 50 carats, making up the stripes on the extravagant football, which is two-thirds regulation size.

Not one element of the design was created at random. The compass on the base of the trophy signifies the path of life.

The players at the base depict those who support and uphold the team while the players above represent those who guard and protect the ball. The Greek word Nyvk, meaning “the goddess of victory,” is engraved on the curtain above the players. Designed in lotus flowers, the dome signifies purity of strength, power and heart of the victors. Finally, the perfection of the diamonds on the football represents the dedication of the winning team to their sport.

After more than 3,000 hours of work, along with a frantic two a.m. call to fix a crack in the dome the night before the big reveal, the Molina Design Team was ready to unveil the masterpiece – a trophy like none other in collegiate athletics.

UCF HEAD COACH

LSU FIELD

The PlayStation Fiesta Bowl has carved a niche in the postseason landscape as an innovative, progressive landing spot for both the venerable old guard and the talented and precocious.

So why should this year be any different?

UCF and LSU will add to that tradition when they meet in the 48th annual PlayStation Fiesta this season, a game that was begun as a vehicle to showcase the programs in the West but has become a yearly stage for the biggest of the big-hitters.

This edition provides a little extra juice to the new year, on multiple fronts.

For the second consecutive season, UCF will bring a perfect record into a New Year’s Six bowl game. Meanwhile, storied LSU — see Billy Cannon, Halloween night, for a quick primer — will celebrate its 50th bowl appearance with its first game here.

There is more. Even through the schools are only a 10-hour drive from each other through central Florida and along the Gulf Coast, this will mark their first meeting in series history. Given the trail that the Knights are blazing and the path that LSU already has trod, it will not be the last.

UCF FIELD

LSU remains one of the preeminent programs in the country, and the Tigers will be playing in their 19th consecutive bowl game. They have taken part in two national championship games in the last decade, most recently in 2012.

UCF is the winningest program in the FBS over the last two seasons, and it shows no signs of stopping while bringing a 25-game winning streak into the game. The Knights won 12 games this season even after a coaching change from Scott Frost to Josh Heupel, a seamless transition.

“It’s unbelievable that they’ve got that done, especially through a coaching change,” LSU coach and proud son of Louisiana Ed Orgeron said about the Knights’ winning streak.

“They must have a great culture out there. Guys (who) believe in winning. They know how to practice. They know how to compete.

They know how to win. I know (defensive coordinator) Randy Shannon.

I know what type of coaches those guys are. A tremendous football team. This will be a challenge for our football team. A great matchup.”

The Fiesta Bowl never has been shy in providing a stage for the young and under-appreciated. BCS-buster Utah broke through when

GAME PREVIEW (CONT.) it participated in 2005, and then-upstart Boise State played among the most memorable games here in 2007, a 43-42 overtime overtime victory over Oklahoma that was won on a trick play and capped by a marriage proposal. UCF made its first appearance in the Fiesta Bowl six years ago, and welcoming No. 11-ranked LSU is another breakthrough.

“Through the years having seen LSU, they are going to be long and athletic,” said Heupel, the 2000 Heisman Trophy runner-up as the quarterback at Oklahoma. “They’re going to run really well. They’re going to be powerful and explosive up front. They pose a lot of issues defensively. I have a tremendous amount of respect for LSU, their program and their football team this year. We recognize that we are playing a great opponent.”

UCF and LSU will be on the field for the first time since they were involved in the kinds of instant classics that are hashed and rehashed for generations. Where-were-you-then events.

The Knights overcame a 17-point deficit to beat Memphis 56-41 in the American Athletic Conference championship game in Orlando on Dec. 1 while overcoming the loss of starting junior quarterback and linchpin McKenzie Milton the week before.

LSU played the longest game in FBS history in its regular-season finale, falling to Texas A&M in seven overtimes Nov. 24, a 74-72 defeat that came down to a final two-point conversion. The teams combined for 84 points in overtime, and the 146 combined points set an FBS record. A game after which both teams could be characterized as winners.

Both UCF quarterback Durriel Mack Jr. and LSU signal-caller Joe Burrow were magnificent.

Mack Jr., a redshirt freshman, accounted for 407 yards and six touchdowns and halfback Greg McCrae rushed for 206 yards and a touchdown when the Knights overcame deficits of 24-7 and 38-21 for the victory that continued the winning streak. Mack, making his first start in place of

GAME PREVIEW (CONT.) Milton, scored three rushing touchdowns in the fourth quarter, the first giving the Knights their first lead of the game at 42-41.

“Our guys believe in ‘D.J,’ that he was going to go out and operate really efficiently,” Heupel said. “I believe he had great comfort in the game plan and was confident in reading the defense. Played with poise all night long. When there were a couple of turnovers early, I was able to look in his eyes and see that was no cause for concern. No hesitation.

He still had a confident look in his eye.”

Players wore leis — Milton is from Kapolei, Oahu, Hawaii — to honor Milton, and defensive back Brandon Moore wore Milton’s No. 10 jersey at the post-game trophy presentation.

“It may not have been said as much, but everybody knew in the back of our minds we were going to go out and win for ’10,’” Mack said.

Burrow was just as dominant against A&M. He passed for 270 yards and three touchdowns and rushed for 100 yards and three more touchdowns, setting a school record for touchdowns accounted for in one game. Burrow ran for two scores and passed for another in the overtime periods, a game that lasted that long only after officials reversed a ruling in the final seconds of the fourth quarter. After initially ruling that time had expired when A&M spiked the ball, the officials put one second on the clock, giving A&M the chance to send the game into overtime with a touchdown pass. It was the longest game in LSU history at four hours, 53 minutes.

“We’re playing as a team, grit, everybody together,” Orgeron said.

It has been that way for years. Bowl games and LSU go hand-in-hand.

The Tigers played in the first of three consecutive Sugar Bowls in 1936 for a program that began in 1893 with a game against Tulane. The Tigers have 796 victories since, and they have appeared in 14 different bowl games including this one. The cast of All-Ameicans includes Jerry Stovall, Tommy Casanova and Bert Jones through Alan Faneca, Odell Beckham

UCF QUARTERBACK DARRIEL MACK JR.

GAME PREVIEW (CONT.) Jr. and Leonard Fournette. Coaching legends Paul Dietzel, Nick Saban and Les Miles have guided the Bayou Bengals to national titles.

UCF’s history is not as long, but recent history suggests good things will continue. The program was initiated in 1979 with a volunteer coach and an NCAA Division III schedule that included a first home game against Fort Benning, but the Knights since worked their way in rapid succession through Division II with Lou Saban as coach and into Division I in 1990. That season, the Knights won 10 games and became the first school in FCS history to qualify for the playoffs in its first season of eligibility. All they did in that postseason was win two games, the first over perennial power Youngstown State, before falling to eventual champion Georgia Southern in the semifinals. That run that earned Jack McDowell the Eddie Robinson Trophy as the national coach of the year.

The Knights spoiled Alabama’s homecoming with a 40-38 victory in Tuscaloosa in 2000 and played in their first bowl game in 2007, starting a run of nine bowl appearances in 12 seasons. UCF should have fond memories of its first New Year’s Six bowl appearance, a 52-42 victory

14 4 8 T H A N N UA L PL AYS TAT I O N ® F I E S TA B OW L

over No. 6 Baylor in the Fiesta Bowl following the 2013 season, a year of program firsts. The Knights had their first victories over Big Ten and Big 12 teams, their first two over top-10 teams and first their first top 10 finish in the AP poll, their final rank. Blake Bortles passed for 301 yards and three touchdowns and ran for another score against Baylor, which never led.

Whether the teams today reach 94 points combined seems a tall task … until you consider the last game each team played.

“They are going to have a bunch of skill guys who are big-time weapons and have the opportunity to make explosive plays when they get the ball in their hands. They are going to pose issues in all three phases of the game,” Heupel said.

The fact that UCF beat LSU’s SEC rival Auburn last year was not lost on the Tigers.

“I think they are one of the top teams in the country. They’ve proved it,” Orgeron said. “We’re going to need to play some very good football.”

COLLEGE FOOTBALL PLAYOFF EVERY GAME COUNTS The College Football Playoff preserves the excitement and significance of college football’s unique regular season where every game counts.

FOUR TEAMS The selection committee ranks the teams based on conference championships won, strength of schedule, head-to-head results, comparison of results against common opponents and other factors.

TWO GAMES The kickoff of the new year belongs to college football, with two semifinal games rotating annually among the Goodyear Cotton Bowl, PlayStation® Fiesta Bowl, Capital One Orange Bowl, Chick-fil-A Peach Bowl, Rose Bowl presented by Northwestern Mutual and Allstate Sugar Bowl.

ONE GOAL The two teams winning the playoff semifinals compete for the College Football Playoff National Championship. That game is in a different city each year, always on a Monday night.

student-athletes, college administrators and journalists, along with sitting athletics directors, comprise the selection committee.

Members of the committee are: Kirby Hocutt (chair), Barry Alvarez, Jeff Bower, Herb Deromedi, Tom Jernstedt, Bobby Johnson, Jeff Long, Rob Mullens, Dan Radakovich, Condoleezza Rice, Steve Wieberg and Tyrone Willingham.

SELECTION COMMITTEE RESPONSIBILITIES Rank the top 25 teams and assign the top four to semifinal sites.

Assign teams to New Year’s bowls.

Create competitive matchups.

UNIVERSAL ACCESS Every FBS team has equal access to the College Football Playoff based on its performance. No team automatically qualifies.

Attempt to avoid rematches of regular-season games and repeat appearances in specific bowls.

Consider geography.

REVENUE The format increases revenue for all conferences and independent institutions.

GOVERNANCE University presidents and chancellors from all 10 FBS conferences and Notre Dame serve on the College Football Playoff Board of Managers and govern the administrative operations, with commissioners (the management committee) managing the event. A small staff in the playoff office in Irving, Texas, carries out the day-to-day responsibilities.

SELECTION COM MITTEE A talented group of high-integrity individuals with experience as coaches,

PARTICIPANTS IN THE NEW YEAR’S BOWLS Both participants in the Orange, Rose and Sugar Bowls are contracted outside the playoff arrange­ment (Big Ten and Pac-12 to Rose Bowl; SEC and Big 12 to Sugar Bowl; ACC to Orange Bowl against the highest ranked available team from the SEC, Big Ten and Notre Dame). If a conference champion qualifies for the playoff, then the bowl will choose a replacement from that conference. When those bowls host the semifinals and their contracted conference champions do not qualify, then the dis­placed champion(s) will play in one of the other New Year’s bowls.

When not hosting semifinals, the Cotton, Fiesta and Peach Bowls will welcome displaced conference champions and the top-ranked champion from a noncontract conference. The highest-ranked available teams will fill any other berths.

The selection committee will make the pairings.
