*** Official #16 IOWA STATE vs #15 Arizona State Big 12 Championship Game(Day) Thread ***

[Klubber]

Reading comprehension is not for everyone.

Neither is giving up on a coach after a bad loss.

Cannot wait to see how people try to spin this one

 

[clonedude]

Why? They're a good team with some nice speed all over.

Stop Scat... and you win. That's the only thing you have to do... but we couldn't do it. 3 man fronts don't help much in that goal.

 

[StLouisClone]

Sadowski had a tough day. I felt Rylen Barnes would have given us a better chance to stop Skattebo and their QB.

 

[UNIGuy4Cy]

Sure the turnovers but 45%...I mean he isn't playing defense or picking plays off the hickory park kids menu

Name a time anyone wins with two turnovers inside their opponents 40-45 yard line. Sorry but his turnovers absolutely affected the results today.

.

Not sure if he was given a big sample size

Sure wasn't but he had plenty of easy ones that he completely missed (think of 4 off top of head).

Like a said in another post, maybe today was an exception, or he could improve.

 

[Bubbahotep]

On a positive note, at least we don't have to worry about those pesky post season rankings.

 

[HFCS]

Watching the MWC game last night. You’d need to give me at least 10 points to consider betting on BSU vs this ASU team today.

 

[heitclone]

Can't wait for the committee to say last nights Boise win was more impressive than ASU today.

 

[ClonesFTW]

Well, they were the better team. Better coaching staff. I guess I’ll give props to ASU as they left no doubt. My only ask is to please represent the Big 12 well in the playoff.

 

[LAClone]

Trust the process, they said.
Win in the margins, they said.

 

[quasistellar]

Really just an unmitigated 20 minute disaster between 5 minutes left in the first half through the third quarter.

I think if you designed a player to be kryptonite for this defense, he would look like Scatabo.

A disappointing way to lose, but I think this team has overachieved with what they’ve been dealt.

Definitely. I didn't have them winning 10 games with these linebackers, for sure. Great for them, but it has to be said this is the easiest schedule ISU has ever played in my (and likely my parents') lifetime.

Can you breakdown the other 55%?

 

[Xerxes_]

Would not surprise me one bit if ASU gets blown out in the CFP.

They need to get their WR back. They won't be able to run downhill against playoff teams like they did today.

 

[Iluvteak]

Don't understand why the coaching staff loves Moberly so much. He can't make basic throws.

I think the whole team was snake bit today. I’m going to cut him some slack.

Cannot wait to see how people try to spin this one

Not much to spin. I do think the game changed on the missed PI but the way they played the second half with the turnovers was bad.

Sama needs to be well behind Hanson (and maybe behind Lee as well) going into next year.

The game was already lost by CMC and staff in the last 3 mins of the 1st half. Incompetence.

 

[Jdk]

No party mood today for the cyclone fans can’t get out of Texas fast enough

 

[fsanford]

Sure wasn't but he had plenty of easy ones that he completely missed (think of 4 off top of head).

Hopefully, just a tough spot to come into

That's not all it was though.
