PHOENIX -- While people around the country celebrate New Year's Eve on Saturday, University of Oklahoma and Connecticut fans are also celebrating "Fiesta Bowl Eve."

Although the Fiesta Bowl parade got fans fired up for the game, those same fans were all bundled up with unusually cold Arizona weather.

Meanwhile, Bob Stoops' mind was on his team's matchup with the Huskies and his last-minute adjustments before gameday.

Connecticut coach Randy Edsall also talked to the media about how his team is preparing for OU's uptempo offense and quarterback Landry Jones.
