Testifying
Jesse Palmer working harder than any Golden Bachelorette in the morgue to make this game interesting....what can he do in the fourth? He should get an espy for having to commentate this garbage.
I think he just said ASU is in the Pac, so that's nice.

My daughter has a crap load and she ask if it was ok to switch over and I granted her permission

I said earlier in the thread that ASU was my Pac 12 team for years until they came over to the Big 12, and while I can't cheer for them like I used to, I can't bring myself to hate them, either. It will be really easy for me to cheer for them in the CFP.

<jeff woody makes note>

The best post-game week analysis on here was the guy in 2017ish who would break things down very simply with great talking points and it's not close, and it's too bad that it stopped (or maybe it's on the premium board?)

Injuries impacted us the most
Trust the process
Guys played well
Nonsense Campbell coach speech
Campbell not getting asked any difficult questions
Ask for more NIL $$ as we clearly need it
We'll be prepared for the bowl game....still get smoked
Team is "young"
Learned a lot today

I think this could have been a completely different game if we had scored on the first drive of the second half to make it 17-24.

Instead , fumble, short field, down three touchdowns and throw the game plan out the window. We’ve looked like a duck out of water ever since.
Yep. Or had that pi call go our way. Or managed the clock last 2 mins of half. Much different momentum. Lots of what ifs, despite the 3rd quarter eviscerating.

If you think Cyclone Fanatic posters are bad enough to drive players and recruits away then you clearly have no idea what other fanbase’s forums (AND REAL LIFE BEHAVIOR) look like.
Yeah, I don’t condone blasting players but if you think this is bad then people are nuts.
They any other big time school.

And part of me thinks if these are going to get paid a bunch of money for playing football then best be ready for criticism.
Especially when fans at universities are the ones helping paying them
