Seriously, how lucky is Seattle to have two state-of-the-art football stadiums
Newly-renovated Husky Stadium
Newly-renovated Husky Stadium
Pac-12 Football 2013
- Thread starter Infield Infidel
- Start date
Loudest stadium I've ever been to. It was the game when Tuiasasopo ran for 200 yards and passed for 300, I think the only time in history.
I hated Tuiasasopo so much. Partially because I could never pronounce his name when I wanted to shout at him while drunk in the stands, then when I finally could he graduated.
Also while ASU centric, very well done. I'm cautiously optimistic for ASU next year as they are improved on Oline and WR, while returning solid QBs and RBs, Defense looks good, but I'm fearful of wandering safeties leading to long gains. Also after Sac St, they start a slate of Wisconsin, @ Stanford, USC, Notre Dame in Dallas that will pretty much dictate their season. The improvement at WR is partially JuCo transfers, so trying to reserve judgement until after their tune up game next week (damn quirkly schedule leading to weak 1 bye)

As an ASU guy, I'm feeling a bit fired up for the first time in a while. Lucky or not, I'll take last week's W. Been some time they've won up in Palo Alto, and I love to see his group pull it off. That 9.5 line is high, methinks.
I can't defend that refs decision on that final play, but the refs were awful all night last week and helped keep Wisconsin in a position to have that type ending. For example on Wisconsin's first TD drive, Stave flipped the ball while being tackled on 3rd and 8. Thing is his knee was down before he threw it so should've punted. There was a blatant PI non-call that ended an ASU drive as well.
I'm cautiously optimistic for tonight. ASU needs to do a better job running the ball. I think if they can get a good turnover or two, they have a shot at this. Stanford is a tough match up with their size though.

Good god the ironman performance by UCLA's Linebacker Myles Jack, Pac12 offensive player of the week

So who's going to coach USC next season? I keep seeing Sumlin's name popping up--any sense as to whether he's legitimately interested?
Interesting to see what Coach O will do, especially if he can find a way to beat UCLA and Stanford.
I'm really fired up for the ASU - U of A grudge match with homefield for my Sun Devils in the Pac-12 title game on the line. Anyone know a way to watch this if you're on the east coast & don't get the Pac-12 network?
ASU just emailed my tickets. I'm more than bummed that I don't think I'm going to be able to make it back for the rematch. I barely remember most of the smashing Stanford put on ASU earlier this year as the performance lead to martinis and many shots.
I'm trying to come up with something creative like I have to dress up like the tree at work, but I work from home. Giving money to the other teams alumni association is too easy too.
A bar tab would be fantastic with us being 2,000 miles apart. I imagine I'll be in San Fran at some point this year as well, but it would really suck if it never worked out.
So yeah. I'm going to give this more thought.

Praise be. This one's going to be televised nationally (ESPN). Early line has ASU giving 3, with the O/U at 56. As emotionally invested as I am, I'm not touching that spread with ten-foot pole, but I'm pretty confident these teams combine for more than 56. Wish I was going. Sun Devil Stadium can get pretty raucous when it's packed. I was there the last time ASU clinched a Rose Bowl berth, and had a blast hanging off the goal posts in the celebratory chaos.
How about you have to wear a vajazzled Stanford thong to a bar (and take pictures) if ASU loses?
And I, uh, have to make a donation or something.

Coach Pete to Washington.
Sucks for Boise, though I suspect Harsin will return as HC. Will be interesting to see how much it devastates this season's recruiting.

Or maybe they'll bring back Wilcox from U-Dub as return payment. Bring Lupoi (DC & recruiting) with him.
