This guy played his heart out on the DL yesterday. Bill Norton. Several big stuffs on the LoS and a part of the gang tackling all afternoon. Was injured twice and still came back into the game and made contributions.

Wow - Jedd showing up Willingham?

Badly needed that scoring drive to keep this pesky Utah team at bay.

CatsbyAZ

That's right! End that drive!

Such a focused team

Flipping on the early kickoffs. Too small of a crowd to start Miami's home game Vs at 10th ranked Louisville. So many empty seats. And in Provo BYU is kicking off at 10AM mountain time Vs Oklahoma. Worth pointing this out because once Arizona is moved to the Big 12, I'd expect the networks would sim...

My, how quickly fortunes have flipped in Westwood. To think that only two weeks ago the Bruins were 6-2 and Ranked going into their trip to Tucson? The narrative was that Coach Kelly was winning without DTR and had turned the once ineffective defense (under Jerry Azzinaro) into a strength, only allo...

There's a pattern this season for ASU. They're able to play games tough through the end, sometimes winning but more often losing late - 21-24 @Cal, 24-27 Vs Colorado, 7-15 @ Washington, all in successive weeks. Since then they've beaten Washington State and UCLA. But scattered amidst their better sh...

Leading up to yesterday's Colorado-Arizona game, Shedeur Sanders had his Rolls-Royce booted by Campus patrol. A few of the headlines value his vehicle at $400k.

Last weekend I was pretty proud Arizona beat a ranked UCLA squad on their last road trip to Tucson but watching how bad the Bruins look tonight Vs a conference worst Arizona State team that's wingin' it with a limited roster, but now I don't know. It's taken the Bruins Defense way too long to make o...

Well we played a subpar game and was able to pull out a squeaker. Our game against Utah should be a sell out and will be incredibly difficult. Final game against our friends the Sun Devils which this game will be their superbowl..... Lighten up buddy :( Arizona football is RANKED, 7-3, headed to a ...

Yes, but…

The Arizona staff absolutely out coached Prime those last five minutes of play. From clock management to play calling that took advantage of a worn down Colorado front seven.

So satisfying for once have coaches I’m confident in.

Holy Moly - just a cursory watch of what’s on the floor and the roster looks able to handle anything!

Love, Krivis, Johnson - over the top additions to Boswell, Ballo, and Larsson.

Did not expect this!

So easy to see through the tightrope the Big Ten is trying to walk. Big Ten doesn't have the balls to do much against Michigan, a program worth too much to remove from contention. But by keeping Harbaugh off the sidelines, the Big Ten can say they "took action" while Michigan moves forward in pretty...

Leaked audio of Lane Kiffin going Marine Drill Instructor at an Ole Miss player reporting in from a mental health break. For all expected reaction to how the player might feel facing an irate Kiffin, you can really hear the stress (of coaching?) built up in Kiffin's voice. They always say what a str...

Not to excuse their performance but the QB that gave us so much trouble last year went down early with an injury. Yes, Trenton Bourguet. I don't know how I watched most of ASU's unwatchable, 55-3 loss to Utah, but I did; probably because I had other, way more entertaining games on the other screen,...

Red-out for Utah? Oh please no. The red outs, blue outs, green outs, white outs, black outs, etc across college football are way too frequent. Let everyone wear what they want. These feel like something from 15 or 20 years ago when they started up, and back then felt like a gimmicky fade that would...

My Mom's side of the family is all from Indiana. Us kids at the holiday dinner table heard many accounts from Uncles and Aunts on what a legend they made of Bobby Knight. Along with Michael Jordan, Emmitt Smith, and Dan Marino, Bobby Knight is among the first sports figures I was conscious of as a c...

Looking at that home slate, am leaning towards attending our home game Vs Houston. Only team on that list that I haven’t witnessed in person. Rest I’ve seen.

Two of our *new* home opponents are teams we’ve recently had home/n/homes with: Texas Tech & Houston.

Before a wild game kicked off between USC and California last Saturday, its kickoff was delayed by a group of undergrads squatting on Cal’s midfield logo until field security handcuffed demonstrators and escorted them out of the stadium. Amidst delaying the kickoff by 15 minutes, most onlookers assu...

ESPN posted a graph showing the damage UCLA's pass rush was able to do to Colorado's Shedeur Sanders last weekend. 22 pressures, 17 hits, 13 knock downs, and 6 sacks. This is a big advantage for UCLA going into Saturday Vs UA. Though Arizona's OL run-blocked well Vs Oregon State, they did not protec...

One test of good coaching that I've often heard is - A well coached team gets better as the season moves along. I couldn't be happier with how the month of October went.

What a clock killing grind of a drive

Two things I didn't think I'd be saying this Saturday:

1. Game of the year in Berkeley

2. USC's defense has the bite of a jellyfish

Ok, maybe just #1 is the surprise

CatsbyAZ

Good for Cal. Making sure the door DOES hit USC in the ass on their way out of the PAC.

CatsbyAZ

Well their defense has steadily gotten worse all season, and people realized probably after our game that you could just sell out for the pass on every play. Also that it's fairly easy to pressure Williams. Wait for Lincoln Riley to lose patience with the running game, even when it's working (again...

The media and one upset at the beginning of the year made Prime's team a star. September was the month of Prime October is the month of Taylor Swift and Travis Kelce November has a lot to live up to.

Will be there as well, a group of six of us. Two of which are formers coworkers of mine who are UCLA grads. They've never experienced a football game in Tucson and wanted to make use of their last shot given the Bruins bolting to the Big Ten next season.

In the aftermath of USC’s loss last night, had the Trojan post game radio analysis airing, and in the midst of all the negativity aimed squarely at Lincoln Riley and his antisocial pressers, one of the broadcast contributors made what I thought was a very apt critical comparison of Riley: “He’s coll...

Out of all the good takeways from yesterday - dominant road win, Noah Fifita 34/43/342yds, the feeling of a program building win - I think my favorite is how strong this team came out after losing two very close games late. After last week's emotionally draining let up Vs USC, Jedd and Staff succeed...

Starting ASU RB Cam Skattebo defends himself on what is otherwise a clear late hit. He follows the KR out of bonds and stands on the sideline for a moment before turning back in bounds to knock a Colorado defender down.

Waking up this morning, I feel worse about losing to USC than in the moments after watching the loss last night. So close. Have to take the next step of learning how to win (as has been said), and going into the Big 12 I want a more organized defense and tougher lines. But the hustle is there, skill...
