Nah. We can still have both.

It should be about halftime vs Houston when KSU V ISU goes final

unless BYU is down by 35 at that point. Then they'll start throwing tortillas.

If ISU loses, I actually hope AZ wins. I’d love a rematch.

A-Rod isn't going anywhere. We're probably giving him a raise after this year

No raise, leave his pay where it’s at and make future increases in compensation based on meeting offensive metrics

Let's say BYU got the last 2 point conversion, do they kick at the end?

NGB

Hail Mary for sure.

RGGeemer

If we got intentional grounding, probably go for the kick.

I think we would have been in position to work for a FG on the prior possession

jigidajrit

His defense is underrated...and he does an excellent job on the defensive boards for a gaurd.

Defense was abysmal. They moved at will both halves. 2H, the had a couple stops after allowing them to move it

Crazy Joe Davola

12:13pm

Everyone always wants to identify one single cause for a loss.

MaximusMeridius

12:14pm

The defense had an uphill battle going into this game... the fact that we had them held to 28 points at their home...

Coug

12:17pm

It annoyed me but at the same time it was fine because ASU didn't take another 6

CameronG

12:19pm

Allowing 28 points on 8 drives to that offense was far from remarkable. I bet you wish Tuiaki was back.

kimdaddy35

12:20pm

Was their 3rd lowest scoring output of the season... and the lowest scored point ASU has scored at home

Coug

Math is hard, but it was their 5th lowest point total for a game and I believe their highest on a points per

kimdaddy35

Impossible. According to CB, our defensive coordinator is the second coming of Buddy Ryan.
