ASU @ Cincinnati Saturday 10/19

Every game is big but this one feels critical. Really like how this team is trending

Feels like one of those games that if they lose it tears down all the good they’ve done in the view of the national media. I don’t personally feel that way.

A win this week and anything can happen come bowl season. I don’t feel like any of their remaining games are un-winnable.

None are unwinnable but all could also be lost. At least it feels that way.

These guys have surpassed expectations so far and I hope they continue to prove the doubters wrong.

Yep, if they could just get as excited as their coach.

I don't think Skattebo is lacking.

Very true. He gives other teams the Skatman Blues.

Well, this is not good. As everyone knows I am not a fan nor a believer in Sims so my outlook for Saturday’s game, and any further games missed by Leavitt, has taken a pretty big hit

Kenny Dillingham on his confidence in Jeff Sims:"If you can't rally behind a guy who's a senior who transferred here to start, who's been the starting quarterback going into four collegiate seasons, who's been nothing but a phenomenal teammate, who's been nothing but dialed in the entire time if you can't get behind that and have belief in that, then I don't know what you can get belief in."

Reportedly, Sam Leavitt suffered a fractured rib in the Utah game.

I guess Sims is the number 2 quarterback. However, I'd think we would hear more about Trenton Bourguet.

I am hopeful on Sims. Lots of experience , mobile, seems like a big dude from what I’ve seen. Probably gonna see more option type plays . For one game we could definitely do worse and have done worse in years past so I’m still hopeful for this weekend.

Hope in Sims is all we've got. I hate how injuries to key players can change a team. We are 5-1 looking to improve and we lose our QB. Ugh.

Everything I’ve been reading suggests Cincinnati has a really good defense
