Reggie Young I believeWho replaced him. Was it Jatta? Whoever it was, seemed to do a pretty good job.
Scattebo is good. Bowling ball type running back who is extremely hard to bring down. We don't tackle so well, so I think this is going to be a problem. If CU contains him then ASU seems limited from what I've seen.I've watched a few ASU games this year, but by no means an expert. Frosh QB Rashada was their best QB option but he's banged up and out 4-6 weeks (maybe 2-3 weeks into that now), potentially going to redshirt him so highly doubt he'll be back this week. The Sun Devils looked the best offensively vs USC two weeks back with Pyne (ND transfer) at QB and Scattebo (RB) doing some damage on the ground. This is the main area that concerns me, if they can get 6-7 yards a rush as Scattebo was doing. They also pulled out a bunch of trick plays vs SC, many that worked. We just need to focus on us, wrap up on tackles, and get some quick passes (north, not east-west Lewis) and the ground game going. I feel like this team rides momentum, so hopefully we come out fast and don't look back. Glad it's not a night game either as those at ASU always seem tougher. Go Buffs!
He did and thought he played relatively well. Although, I am not sure what to take of line play from the USC game.Reggie Young I believe
I think their Dline is a strength. Their secondary has been the liability.He did and thought he played relatively well. Although, I am not sure what to take of line play from the USC game.
They then lost a statistically EVEN game vs USC at home. QB3 (Pyne, who played at Notre Dame) played. They lost the turnover battle 2-1 and the game 42-38.

I was referring to USC's defense.I thought they looked good against USC.

Has anyone ever told you that you are difficult to communicate with?Oh. Well, I was referring to ASU's line. They were getting good pressure on Williams during the portion of the game that I watched.
Yup. Fixed mine as I copy/pasted and forgot to edit it.Other than the score was 42-28 and the stats were not even I agree on the turnover margin.

Third. You forgot we played Nebraska.This is only the second game that everyone expects us to win. We did not come out ready to play in the other one. We might want to change that this time.
After the TCU game it looked like more of the same as far as TE production goes. Mike Harrison has been a underrated and awesome surprise.
Mikey just converted to TE, and I could see him adding significant mass in the off season now that he’s a TE for good. Could make a big jump by 2024.Sean Lewis was a TE (converted QB) in college, so he has a direct appreciation for what the position can do.
The struggle is that his core philosophies on offense are to go fast and to make a defense defend the whole field. It takes a very capable TE to be on the field when they're not substituting. Basically, if it's not a TE who only subs in for short yardage packages then he's got to cause more problems for a pass defense than the 4th or 5th WR.
Mikey has shown to be that in the pass game, but doesn't do much in the run game. I think there's a huge opportunity to play immediately for a TE here who can be like Irwin was as like a 6th OL on that 10-win 2016 team. And if the guy's also got soft hands & short shuttle agility/ burst, then that would be a superstar in this O.
I think we have to give Brewster some credit here. Obviously we need TE recruiting to pick up but Harrison has developed into a nice receiving TE that just isn't experienced enough to block guys on the edge.Sean Lewis was a TE (converted QB) in college, so he has a direct appreciation for what the position can do.

Not sure. I'm guessing they are just more comfortable with Harrison because Caleb is finally healthy, afaik.I haven't kept up - what's up with Caleb Fauria?
I saw Caleb out there on special teams.Not sure. I'm guessing they are just more comfortable with Harrison because Caleb is finally healthy, afaik.
At one point, I saw him on the sideline fully suited up. Not sure if he is getting in the game anywhere thoughI haven't kept up - what's up with Caleb Fauria?

That's the thing. Mostly treating it as a big slot.What are we asking TEs to do in the running game? Except on the goal line when we bring in the DTs, I've never seen the TE lined up on the OTs shoulder.
