Man, there is without a shadow of doubt, a burgeoning rivalry between Graham and Mora... Tim Brando was on with Jurecki yesterday and did a terrific job at pointing out the variety of differences between the two... from style, to upbringing, to their roots and history in the game & coaching.
Mora earlier in the week made a very sarcastic comment when asked by a reporter about ASU and Graham...He said something to the effect that "Graham is a far better coach than I could ever hope to be"... and that "nobody is ever going to outsmart Todd Graham...".
Very snarky... There is no love lost between these two and frankly, I much more respect the path that Graham has taken to get where he is, versus Mora who had doors opened for him from the very beginning just because of his name.
Both are brash and hyper-confident in their own respective abilities. Both are always great interviews as they have no problem telling you like it is... They both rarely hold anything back. Yet, they couldn't have traveled more disparate paths!

KICK SOME BRUIN ARSE DEVILS!!!!

:sparky:

Yep, the difference though is you won't catch Graham taking a shot at another coach. I haven't heard him do so at ASU at least. He just talks very positively about the opposition and it seems very genuine.

Still being 103+ degrees gonna be a plus for the devils. Granted it cools down at night, but might see some Bruins cramping up more than us.

Meh... It's really not that bad. Was out at lunch and it definitely didn't feel too hot at all. Once the sun goes down it will be a really nice night... and hopefully a GREAT night for the Devils!

Yes! Along with my daughter (Junior @ ASU) and my son (Senior in High School)!!

:thumbup:

Wooo! That is so awesome! I hope you all have a great time.

If I wasn't out of State, I would be there. My wife and I are talking about flying down there for a weekend sometime and catching a Sun Devil game and Suns game, if possible. But it ain't happening this year though.

Berco was awesome on that TD drive! And that TD throw, moving right, throwing across the field to his left, money!

Offense is definitely doing better than I thought they would. Nice TD.

Another TD pass, awesome! LOL I think we may end up with a quarterback controversy this season. Man.

Ugly. Very ugly. You need to be able to tackle better than that.

Looks like Strong and Berco are having some timing issues. Strong had 3 balls he could have caught, but 2 got there before he expected, the other was the int. and I think Strong could have got that one too.

But Berco needs to wait a little bit, relax, he's got time back there

He had the guy open, needed a touch pass over the top, but went with the line drive. ugh.

I would have been happy with a field goal there. You could see Norvell and Graham debating the play call. Looked like Graham reluctantly went along with Norvell saying we have time for one more shot. Result: 10 point swing

A big swing, possibly a game changer.

ASU has to be the most frustrating team to follow. This is coming from a Cardinals fan.

What a kick to the balls. I really hoped the devils would show up tonight.
