I am going to the game of course. But, this is maybe the least fired up I've ever been for a Territorial Cup game. What a disappointing season it has been for both programs.

Its game day people. Wake your arses up!

I am hoping to catch the game today, but the schedule is a bit up in the air today.

Go Sun Devils!

Well, Tucson's A is now painted gold. :shrug:

Says who? I live a mile from Sentinel Peak. Drove by it at 11pm last night returning from my band's rehearsal and it was certainly NOT gold then and it was not any shade other than white at 6:40am this morning. Since I live right next door I drove up this morning on my way out to get groceries...white...and definitely not fresh paint.

Someone lied to you. :D

No Solomon, no Scooby and no Turituri, no chance for the Cats. I have not seen so many injuries in one season to so many key players, really sucks. Maybe ASU will take the UofA lightly now but I doubt it. Oh well, let's hope it's a clean game and no dirty plays by either team.

If you Google, "Tuscon A Mountain painted Gold", several articles come up confirming it and describing that it did indeed happen when viewed on the Google list. But the articles have now been taken down.

So perhaps it got done, but has since been repainted white again.

Like I said...I was 3 feet from it at 9am today...it was NOT fresh paint. Old, cracked, worn in spots.

Well, let me help you with the math. 18 hours ago... Hmm. Seems like that must have been sometime yesterday, right?


I know this is bad news. Coming right after 33 U of A students voted to give the University of Arizona back in Mexico, falling for a massive ASU prank that even your esteemed journalism students fell for and published in the Daily Wildcat. Great video here if you want to watch the whole thing. :)

I guess so. Unless the paint somehow ages many months inside a day...

The story was pulled for a reason

Like photos much?

Wow, didn't realize the game started already. Fox Sports 1

ASU strips Randall and has the ball with field position.

So Norvell is running more passing plays than runs. Great. :sarcasm: Two unsuccessful drives now. 2 passes on the first drive, 4 on this one, no first downs

What the hell are they thinking here.

So the Sun Devils want to pass the ball and go for 4th and 3 yards at midfield?

Good pass by Berco and catch to Lucien setting up TD. It didn't come easy.
