Arizona vs. #14 Iowa State (9/27/25) - Live Stream - Watch ESPN

In addition there were a couple of plays with questionable activity going on that seemed to lead directly to our players' injuries. On one kick off return their #30 seemed to be on top of our guy (deep back up TE, I think) and shoving his forearm into his throat repeatedly. On Big Citrus's second injury it looked like #12, Spivey threw a punch to the neck or something while Orange was down.
I love physical play, but I am not a fan of dirty play. It looked like Spivey in particular was always trying to do something after the whistle to draw a cheap PF penalty.
Breece is also elite at setting up his blockers. He will often make a subtle movement to move the next defender so his blocker in an okay position is suddenly in a great position to make a solid block.
I think the most exciting thing about this Arizona win is seeing Sowell breakout. We need a WR1 badly and he has to be that guy for us.
If we can get consistent WR play (its been solid but spread out), that should allow us to re-open the tight end game. Brahmer has 3 catches over the past 2 weeks and Burkle only had 2 against Arizona. If teams now have to more closely defend those over the tops throws, hopefully that allows us to target the TEs a bit more.
Our best WR, imo are Sowell, Townsend, and Esilksen sp?.
This caught me by surprise this game. I was looking at one a receiver lining up in pass formation (don't remember who) and commented on how tiny he looked next to the line...
Then I looked him up and he was 6'1, 200 lbs or thereabouts. So I started looking at the numbers for the O line. I'm used to our O line being smaller than most of our opponents' D lines, but it was a pleasant surprise to see that we actually have really huge dudes out there.
He's been getting less reps now that Townsend and Sowell appear to be "fully" acclimated. Overby hasn't had many snaps the previous two games (AZ and Ark St), I think around 10 a game.
Agreed. As a caveat to this, while Blum
Is not a football or player personnel expert evaluator, he is an expert in his field.
And I’m pretty sure the coaches aren’t varnishing anything when they tell him about the young players who are flashing, and they really, really want to keep around.
And we get the trickle down from that process.
I'm with you on this.
My son, who plays high school football (mostly JV) even pointed out how Sama rarely follows his blockers and takes the easy 3-7 yards. (neither of us are experts, I just mean it's even obvious to a teen!)
It seems he has not yet got over "high school syndrome" where he thinks he can just out-juke everyone on defense every time.
I don't even see it listed in the On Demand section of ESPN app on my tv or phone. All other ESPN games hare listed from this past weekend but I don't see our game.Is the WatchESPN replay working for anyone, or is it just me?

Sowell by a wide margin is most reliable. Then a close call between Eskildsen and Townsend. Good things will keep happening if we keep throwing at Sowell.
I’m going to say that players keep emerging.
Silly CMC. He said it would be six games, and Sowell only took five. Can’t the man ever get anything right?
