Arizona joined the newly formed Western Athletic Conference in 1962. Until 1979, this season was the last in which the Wildcats defeated Arizona State on the road. Also, Arizona went undefeated at home in the season (not including tie games). This feat would not happen again until 1993. In addition, this season was the only one in which Arizona played Idaho on the road. Prior to that and ever since, all Arizona-Idaho games have been played in Tucson. (en)
