XII Championship ASU v Iowa St Saturday 12/7 10a

[Dback Jon]

PSU is vastly overrated

As is Alabama. Alabama more so

PSU is vastly overrated

Every year. They feast on the Big 10 cellar dwellers and lose to Ohio State. It's such a top-heavy conference.

 

[Mainstreet]

I'm loving every minute of the ride. What a season and the Sun Devils are still rolling.

 

[Mainstreet]

Yes, I want to see Sparky again.

It sucked to leave the PAC, but getting away from the listless CA schools and playing schools with more engaged fanbases with a tie-in to Texas is going to be huge for ASU. Kenny is still pulling talent out of CA too.

 

[Mainstreet]

I want to see Cam Skattebo wear that belt.

I think you go with sparky purely out of vibes and luck than anything else.

I think you go with sparky purely out of vibes and luck than anything else.

And a winning tradition built by Frank Kush.

 

[Mainstreet]

Let me add, this ASU team reminds me of the excitement those Frank Kush teams brought to the fans.

A better view of Cam Skattebo with the Big 12 Championship belt or a replica.

Hopefully they get Penn State and not Notre Dame. What a great win/season. I can’t remember the last time I was interested and excited about ASU football.

Outside of that locker room, probably nobody. I was hopeful for bowl eligibility and that was about it and even I thought that might be a reach

I thought maybe a .500 season this year, competitive losses, and I would have been completely ok with that. But, this team just kept getting better and better. This ASU team would smoke the ASU team that started the season. It's special to see it all fall into place like that. If the injury to Leavitt had been catastrophic it's probably very different. But even that went our way.

Exactly. And that is why Ohio St always pisses me off as well. Look at their nonconference schedule. They never play anyone worth a crap. They play like two legit teams a year.

 

[PDXChris]

Last stat I'll throw out! Three of our last 4 games were against ranked opponents and we are 4-0 winning wach game by an average of 20.75 points while 3 games were on thr road!

Dominance!!

I think it’s embarrassing that a P4 champ would be relegated to a 12 seed when winning your conference should guarantee you a home first round game if you don’t get the bye

They need to adopt the method used for the NCAA basketball tournament. Which is after all conference championships have been played, the selection committee analyzes all teams based upon a number of factors, including strength of schedule. Winning a conference championship doesn’t guarantee an automatic bid into the tournament, however, in basketball, all teams in a conference play for the conference championship, unlike football. So a team can theoretically come out of nowhere and win a conference championship in bball and not make the tournament.

Anyway, I would guess next season the NCAA will make this change for football.

 

[Mainstreet]

Extend coach Kenny Dillingham.

Lots of build-up and promos for the SEC championship game from ABC. They started coverage for the BIG 12 championship right before kick-off.

 

[Mainstreet]

Kenny Dillingham on a momentum shifting 4th and 1 play call.

[Mainstreet]

Cam Skattebo with 16 carries for 170 yards and two touchdowns. And he was on cruise control.

He also caught two passes for 38 yards.

I don’t believe anything will change until the SEC and/or B1G champion finds themselves in ASUs shoes of being a 12 seed. They are the voices and they run this show.

The college football calendar is so stupid. ASU might have been able to flip a higher level recruit who was watching todays game but since almost all of them committed earlier in the week it is a lost opportunity
