ASU @ Oregon State 11-16-19

[Absolute Zero]

Wow

 

[thirty-two]

Marched all the way down the field and scored, nice!

 

[82CardsGrad]

Ballsy call here by Herm!

 

[Mainstreet]

I would have preferred to roll the the QB out on a 2 point conversation with the option to run or pass. Oh well.

 

[Raindog]

Not sure that is a great gamble with so much time left.

 

[FB94]

Worst call I have ever seen in a long time. You may play to win the game but don’t call a play that absolutely sucks

 

[Raindog]

Really a poor risk overall. Just kick the PAT and go to overtime. Even if it worked, there is still over a minute for OSU to get in FG range, and your defense hasn't exactly been shutting them down.

 

[Mainstreet]

A field goal would win it but I'm not sure the Devils have enough time.

 

[Mainstreet]

That's game on pass interference call.

 

[82CardsGrad]

Jones may have had the worst game I have ever seen a college CB have... wow.

 

[Raindog]

The coaching on this team continues to be dreadful. There is enough talent to win more than they have.

 

[Ouchie-Z-Clown]

That’s a pretty bad loss. As much as the first half of the year was exciting. They’ve closed the year as poorly as possible. I want to be fully out on herm but said I’d give him next year. But unfortunately I believe we’ll see the same crap.

29 freshman starters...including across the oline and our QB. I like Herm’s chances for improvement next season.

The hope is in the young players for sure.

Herm will still be a mediocre coach next year, with a mediocre staff.

In my many years of watching college football I have found that you are what you are in college football. Short of some weird fluke where a famous alumni starts the largest sports apparel company ever and singlehandedly funds your program, there's like 15-20 programs that matter. Yes they occasionally have some struggles but for the most part are always in the conversation. And historically average programs like ASU will occassionally have a brief moment in the sun but for the most part be the same 30-40 program they have always been.

Could be worse, you could be UofA Football.

 

[cwamjn]

Jack Jones was atrocious. That was as poor as I've ever seen a defensive player play.

 

[82CardsGrad]

This is nuts!

USC last week
1st half: 385 yards, 9.2 yards/play
2nd half: 162 yards, 5.2 yards/play

Oregon State tonight
1st half: 295 yards, 6.7 yards/play
2nd half: 98 yards, 3.3 yards/play

 

[AsUpRoDiGy]

This team completely shut down after that HBO special aired, which I find ironic. That 2 pt conversion play was dumbfounding. I don't mind going for it, but to run a hb toss was insane... not a good call at all. I know the team is full of freshmen and growing pains were expected, but some of the play calls have been really suspect. I expect Herm will make some staff adjustments after the season is over, and just like we always say...there's always next season...

 

[AZCB34]

That was a game they had to have. The choice to go for two wasn't horrible but I fail to believe that has their best two point conversion play. If you make that choice, you run the best 2 point conversion play you have.

Now you have to beat UA to get a bowl bid and I want a bowl game for the extra practices.

 

[MigratingOsprey]

Was that a planned toss or desperation when the sweep was shut down

I really couldn't tell because he got so deep to the sideline and it seemed like a panic throw

Either way, left a lot out there in a game they needed to win

 

[dscher]

Pac 12 football is just atrocious to watch now in general...

 

[Ouchie-Z-Clown]

This has been become a crap season.

 

[Mainstreet]

Another thing I wanted to mention, Eno Benjamin does not have the speed to get around the corner at least consistently.

That's another reason I didn't like that attempt at a 2 point conversion.

They should have rolled Daniels out with a run-pass option.

 

[GatorAZ]

Any chance Eno comes back? He’s probably a late rd pick at best but might set some records with another year in college.
