ASU Pregame Thread: 10/6 @ 2 PM MT on P12N
- Thread starter SerenityBuff
- Start date
S&P+ makes their pick
- No. 21 Colorado (-3) 33, Arizona State 27 (Oct. 06, 4 p.m. ET, Pac-12)
Let their aggressive pass rush be their downfall. Run, run, and run up the gut and then play action to Viska on a go route.
Keeps their offense off the field as well and tires out their D at altitude. Mix in some RB screens or quick screens to KD and we can take advantage of their aggressiveness.

Could we see a TE targeted in this game? That's what normal teams do with blitzing LBs. Maybe?
Good question. I wonder how Darrion Jones is coming along?
He's on campus. That's about all we can say about him right now.

one of the accomplishments of the team 2 years ago was winning all the games against equal talent. i think this is about the first of those this year.....and the games at home seem even more crucial this year (re: matchups) to having another special year and taking another step forward for the program. maybe going beyond it with a little hardware? need the crowd in it and Folsom rocking. shoulder to shoulder.

If we can score more points there is a good chance that we will win. You lose at least 60% of the games where you don't score more than the other team.

Much of last year was truly brutal, but that game was the most infuriating for me. I could feel in my stomache it meant bowl hopes were gone.
The drop by Shay, the missed TD to Phil and then Steven's P6 right before the half against USC were demoralizing for bowl hopes.

Unless you are nebraska, they win every game but still manage to lose according to Frosty.

RANT... why do so many videos with narration have WAY TOO LOUD background music in the clips? Why have a narrator if the are drowned out with crap music?

Yes, but was that done with an official simulation off a 5+ year old video game?
Otherwise, no bueno.

*or Texas A&M. They never lose, just run out of time.
Didn't Shay drop two sure TDs against ASU last year?
2 days to go
Not sure if a sellout is in the works, but it is definitely going to be a solid crowd.

I thought it was just the wide open flea flicker but I was also down at the game after a full day in Scottsdale so I could definitely be wrong.
On paper, both UCLA and Nebraska have better talent than CU. Although I have no idea how much of that paper talent actually remains in Lincoln.
Weather is going to be an issue...
High of 52, cloudy and damp. Chance of rain increases in the afternoon.
330+ days of sunshine a year, and yet we have back to back games of bleh weather. That's a really unfortunate draw of the weather cards.

Wasn't the NH game over 90 degrees? I'd rather have cold.
The NH game was 90+, but the UCLA game was a cold night game. Well, cold for September anyway.
Good luck.
and watching the Pac12 games (Pac network) You cannot hear the announcers. If you turn up the volume the stadium noise just drowns them out more.
