After two wins against non-Power Four opponents, Arizona will get its first chance to make a true statement this season when it has the spotlight Friday night in Manhattan, Kansas. The Wildcats (2-0) will close out their nonconference schedule against a conference opponent when they travel to face Kansas State (2-0).

Though both teams are in the Big 12 now, the game was scheduled prior to conference realignment last summer so will be played as a non-league matchup.

Still, there is a lot on the line in the Week 3 contest as both teams are ranked inside the AP Top 25 with UA checking in at No. 20 and K-State sitting at No. 14.

Both teams received a bit of a scare last week with Arizona eventually taking down NAU, 22-10, in a low-scoring matchup in Tucson while the other Wildcats trailed Tulane by two scores at halftime only to earn a 34-27 win on a defensive touchdown in the fourth quarter.

There will be plenty of attention on the two quarterbacks in the matchup Friday night (5 p.m. MST | FOX) with Arizona's Noah Fifita and Kansas State's Avery Johnson already garnering plenty of eyes through the first two weeks.
