Don’t get me wrong, I really wanted to win that game and clinch a spot in the playoff. I thought it necessary as I always saw ASU as a very tough game for us to win. It was.

I knew Kansas was playing well and I knew they might beat us. I’m not shocked to lose a nailbiter. I’m absolutely shocked that our offense was so impotent when it came to putting up points on the scoreboard, and the turnover at the end of the first half constitutes a scar that will never heal.

Losing in a shootout, which I saw as a real possibility, seems like it would be easier to swallow than moving the ball all game, but failing to capitalize in the red zone all night, at home.
