Time of possession is 7:07 for ASU…0:45 Texas.

That means Texas' defense is going to be exhausted when they're up 49-3.

C'mon ASU! If nothing else....at least keep the game somewhat interesting.

If they can score a TD on this drive, Thry might be able to to settle in and five them a game

leavitt needs to take the plays that are there. he's getting a little too greedy at times with open guys. take the 4-5 yards as it's there

 

[Gopher_In_NYC]

Charity first down

 

[upnorthkid]

fucking moronic play call on 4th down.

 

[upnorthkid]

ASUs secondary is really bad

 

[Section 100]

I wish Texas would use LARGER numbers on their jerseys. I'm having a difficult time seeing them.

I hear that Mortal Kombat theme from ASU's band. Well done.

Not sure what your point is.

My point is they’re not that impressive to me after a game which they didn’t overwhelm Boise and I felt the same way after they beat us by one point.

Play a team that has a better D and we’ll see how much they run for.

Brosmer is a better QB for my money and you may have heard my chuckle when it was announced Allar was foregoing the draft; followed by my rejoinder, “I didn’t know that vernacular applied to the UFL.”

Was it a workman effort? Do enough to win and advance? I didn't watch the game.

 

[upnorthkid]

leavitt trying to ball out here. put the game on him ASU. it's your only chance

 

[Gopher_In_NYC]

Was it a workman effort?

They missed two FGs and had a TD called back from a penalty abd still only lost 31-14.

Do enough to win and advance?

That’s 13 points.

PSU is always overrated and seldom reaches the heights assigned to them.

Their path to glory ends in the next round, when I hope they get thumped by 20+

I didn't watch the game.

Arizona St is their own worst enemy right now. Very sloppy.

 

[upnorthkid]

can someone explain to me why some of these guys have 2 mouthguards just flopping around? seems like it would get in the way trying to catch the ball

My wife asked the same thing just now.

They "only" lost 31-14?

LOL.

You're challenging some guy for "King Of Bad Takes."

 

[upnorthkid]

oops Texas. Got a little sleepy on the coverage there. outstanding fake and ASU has some life

CNN reporting they do not believe he acted alone, so…

Smells like they are worried about a demonstrative terrorist event. If so pulling out my tinfoil cap I wonder if there are concerns for the other bowls.

I hope they win!

Yup and 11 on Texas should have been flagged for targeting on the tackle on the sideline of that play.

 

[Gopher_In_NYC]

I hope they win!

Their coach ain’t Ben or Kirk Franklin, but James

 

[Gopher_In_NYC]

Score a TD and make them play 4Q

 

[Sparlimb]

Not sure this one will get any better. Arizona St just can't block.

 

[GophersInIowa]

Arizona St is outgaining Texas 178 to 133. Four times they've gotten inside Texas' 35 and have only scored 3 points.

 

[upnorthkid]

Final first half stats.
TX 21 total plays, less than 9 min TOP, 133 total yards
ASU 48 total plays, 21 min TOP, 178 yards

yet TX up 14 and getting the ball out of half. TX has looked like shit running the ball. without that PR TD and ASU turning it over on downs twice and missing a FG, and its looking more like TX was that team without a signature win moreso than this offensive juggernaut. The defensive line is very good but this has been a very underwhelming game once again with ASU not being all that good and TX just failing to be able to execute at all

 

[Gophers1992]

Skattebo is better at running his mouth than running the ball.

 

[upnorthkid]

Skattebo is better at running his mouth than running the ball.

to be fair, they are completely selling out on it as they feel ASU cannot run by them/that they will get pressure on Leavitt before they can. ASU has zero push up front and are getting obliterated by Texas' DL

Ben’s advice to college bros

“He that lies down with Dogs, shall rise up with fleas.”

 

[upnorthkid]

good job #9. you look super intelligent

 

[upnorthkid]

Skattebo on the swing pass is how ASU should be running the ball. it's creased TX twice already
