Arizona football countdown: 22 days, Art Luppino had some fun stats

Art Luppino found himself in the minds of Arizona Wildcats fans in 2013 as Ka'Deem Carey kept breaking marks that Luppino owned at the time.

Wearing the No. 22 back in the mid-1950s, today is a good day to bring to light some fun stats from Luppino's days in Tucson.

As the official Arizona football countdown points out, Luppino had 228 yards on six carries against New Mexico State in 1954.

This is so great for so many reasons. First, Arizona won that game 58-0 to start the 1954 season 1-0 in the Border Conference.
