Bear Down Wildcats

Gonna get swept by an at best average Big 12 team. Can't imagine what Kansas would do to us. Reality check. Soft schedule, soft players, no bueno.

Captain Obvious

Reality check game.

Captain Obvious

Just an ugly game all around. Both teams very unimpressive.

Yep, coach needs a halftime shirt change

I think the change needs to be more of a strategic nature. 24 points in a half won't get it done.

There’s a huge body of work substantiating such a claim

He has his scratch your head moments but lately he's had a lot more good ones. He saved our butts more than once in the Wooden Legacy in clutch moments.

Captain Obvious

I had a bad feeling about this game. On the road, early start, and our weak overall schedule up to this game. Hopefully we get it in gear.

Unless the defense improves significantly by next Saturday we are going to get curb stomped in Waco.

Agreed. I don't see Baylor having much trouble with us unless we tighten up on defense.

Momo Jones?

Mark Lyons comes to mind.

Still feels like a loss to me. So much on D to fix. It's not the trope that we always get the other team's best game, we have definite weaknesses. This. We haven't played a quality opponent yet IMHO and that's another problem I see. The Gonzaga game should tell us a lot. Thankfully the Pac 12 looks...

Pepperdine just wants it more. Love the effort.

Not sure we have enough to withstand this game. Lol

Captain Obvious

Dylan Smith travel at the top of the key with 2 minutes left in the half. Mark this down because that is going to happen again in February or March in a critical moment. I can’t stand it when the ball goes to him. That turnover really annoyed me. His decision making really concerns me. I also fear ...

Captain Obvious

Love the quality depth this year. I'd like to see a little improvement in our rebounding but everything else looks great. It's really fun to watch this team.

Agreed. Won't work when we finally play a quality opponent.

Captain Obvious

I know it probably won't happen but I'm hoping Sumlin is fired before the ASU game; tomorrow would be great. The program needs to go in a different direction and the sooner he's fired the better IMHO. The coaching is bad enough but you couple that with horrible recruiting and it's just inexcusable i...

Captain Obvious

Not really seeing how our being undefeated at this point is a big surprise. Zeke’s play and DD’s exit are the only surprises. If we make it to the start of Pac play without a loss, that too would be surprising. It shouldn't be a surprise since all we've played are cupcakes so far. Baylor and Gonzag...

Why do birds fly upside down over Arizona Stadium?

There's nothing worth crapping on.

Captain Obvious

Utah destroying UCLA. I don't even want to think what they'll do to us. Could be one of our worst home losses ever. Luckily no one will be there.

Captain Obvious

I feel bad for the Duck. He will be doing hundreds of push ups tomorrow.

Captain Obvious

One of my biggest surprises so far: Jeter is virtually an afterthought. Still love his hustle and enthusiasm. It will serve the team well at times this year. There's so much versatility in this team and so far everyone seems to understand their role. More importantly they seem to have caught on to ...

Captain Obvious

I'll be more optimistic when we beat some quality opponents or at least play competitively against them. Everybody NAU plays this year will look good. Let's not get ahead of ourselves with lofty expectations after a cupcake win. The team is definitely deeper and that's a cause for optimism. I'm not ...

Captain Obvious

Nice to see the season finally underway. Absolutely meaningless game but nice to see the new players in action. Interested to see what we can do against a team with a pulse.

Captain Obvious

UA is NOT UNC. Just ask Puff Johnson. At this point its difficult to realistically make the argument that we shouldn't have self sanctioned. What would have happened if we had? 1) We would have avoided the embarrassment of the Buffalo beat-down on National TV 2) We would not have the sanctions boog...

Captain Obvious

Wouldn't mind seeing Stone Gettings on our O-Line or as a tight end. What a stud.

Captain Obvious

Punting on first down still seems like a viable option. Let us not forget a potential invite to the tumbleweed bowl in Roswell, New Mexico is still at stake.

Captain Obvious

If it wouldn't wear the defense out more I'd suggest punting on first down.

I'd love it if Kansas won it all this year and they have the team to do it. I can't stand the NCAA and it's incompetence. What a huge middle finger it would be to the NCAA. It's just so annoying that the media schlubs keep attacking us and pretend not to notice what Kansas and so many other programs...

Captain Obvious

Quality win on the road. I'd still like to see a little more improvement on defense but the Cats got the stops they needed today and that's what counts. They'll have to play out of their minds next week to have any chance of winning. A three man front won't get it done.

Captain Obvious

This team just has poor fundamentals and an absurdly low collective football IQ. It's hard to coach that but our coaches football IQ's appear to be be lower than the players. A perplexing dilemma.

I'm happy when there's a reason to be. Arizona football is generally depressing. Sorry but I don't celebrate failure.

Captain Obvious

Wasn't expecting a win today......and I'm still not, but it would be nice considering we may not win another game aside from maybe Oregon State.

Captain Obvious

Despite the talking heads during the Red/Blue game does anyone see Koloko not redshirting? At this point i see Jeter/Nnaji/Gettings/Lee playing at the 4/5 Mannion/Green/Doutrive/Hazzard/Smith at the 1/2/3 Thats 9 bodies...........and Miller almost never goes that deep after conference play begins. ...

We’ve all seen the correlation between offensive and defensive efficiency and likelihood of reaching the Final Four. Is there any kind of similar cor...

Captain Obvious

Pueblo could probably beat these schlubs. This game means nothing and tells us nothing. Texas Tech will remind us how truly bad we are very soon.

If Tate can run and our defense limits them to 65 points I think we can pull the upset.

Captain Obvious

Time to unleash the beast. Give Chuck the defense and let’s see how it plays out.....now! Wouldn't make much if any difference. Absolutely no talent to work with and to make it worse players that aren't teachable with the exception of Schooler. I'm amazed we didn't give up 60 plus to Hawaii. We wil...

The epitome of Arizona football. A yard short. I actually can't stop laughing. No point getting worked up over Arizona football due to its irrelevance.

Captain Obvious

Two of the worst defenses in college football on full display in this one. Should be lots of scoring. I think we will see Tate continue to struggle this season. I've said all along he's not a quarterback. I predict by game 3 or 4 he won't even be starting. Honestly I think McDonald is much more tale...

Miller better step up with Altman and Hopkins in the league. I feel like every time a Miller team goes up against a Altman team we lose lately. I remember Miller saying one time that playing against Oregon is tough because they are Unpredictable. Maybe Miller should think about the predictable part...

Is the "what UNC did was way worse" reasoning gonna hold as much water as many here expect it will? I actually doubt it will. Miller is still guilty by not maintaining institutional control and there's no way around that. Plus UNC is a blue blood, cash cow program so they're essentially immune to N...

Wow. They're losing key players but gaining some gems.

I'm inclined to believe UW has become the favorite to win the conference in landing 2 top seven recruits. Hopefully their coach understands how to get the most out of what he has and I believe he does.
