Anyone been through an airport lately? Pretty empty? Looks like Southwest cancelled/suspended its very convenient direct routes between Tucson and San Diego. Direct flights between San Diego and Tucson are restored. Took advantage of Southwest's one-ways for our homecoming weekend. Flights into Tuc...

We could not run the ball most of the day except for Plummer's keepers. I was less upset at the playcalling versus our line play which was borderline atrocious. They could neither open up any holes between the tackles nor pass protect. Probably a third of yesterday's playcalls were runs up the midd...

Have they even gotten on the plane yet? Figured the Cal would've had to by this morning for the early kickoff tomorrow. A number of betting sites, such as Draft Kings, have removed tomorrow's game from their roster of game lines. I don't thing Draft Kings knows anything more than what we know; rath...

Depending on who is ultimately out for Cal, this just increases the pressure on us to actually win a game.

Do we know if the entire Bears team made the trip to Tucson?

I know people want to dunk on ASSU for this, but it shouldn’t be surprising that there are consequences for badmouthing your employer publicly. Listening to the comments, Jordan Simone qualified himself as gracefully as he could before stating what a lot of Sun Devils fans posted much more aggressi...

UCLA looked like dog crap on the road against Utah last night. Lost 44-24, or something like that. Falls to 5-4 and loses grip on what was an attainable division title. Yet somehow year 4 of the Chip Kelly era is the Bruins' best so far. Football purgatory. Does anyone know where a online Bruins fan...

Recent weekend trips have added three new airports to my travels: Des Moines - Surprisingly small, only like 8 gates in use, unsurprisingly bordered by Corn Fields.

Hardin quit on the Rockets last year but had trade options because there was belief Harden would commit once away from Houston.

Joking/Not Joking but I wouldn't object to this thread being moved to the football board until season's unfortunate end. The older I get the less that sports sways any mental effect over me.

I haven't seen a team this hopeless since the Paul Wulff years at Washington State. And even they won games here and there. The Washington Huskies 0-12 team in 2008 kinda felt like a long time coming and at least that came at the end of a coaching tenure. Not the beginning.

Thinking of going to our Nov 6 homegame Vs Cal.

With Cal and Colorado almost as bad as we are I figured Cal is one of our only two shots at witnessing a win this year.

Forgive my random thoughts for descending into the trash of Family Guy's humor, but I wonder if when Stephen Hawing farted in his wheel chair if it has the same electronic dissonance as his voice generator?

Sun Devils are still such an inconsistent team I wouldn't be surprised if by this time next week, if Stanford knocks ASU silly, we're talking about a Utah team with losses to BYU and San Diego St in the driver's seat for the South.

ACC "powers" Miami and Virginia squaring off on ESPN right now, and it's PAINFUL to watch. Especially on the Miami side of the ball, where 4-star recruits go to die.

I will never understand putting my multi-million dollar salary at risk because you don’t want to do something that literally billions of people have done without adverse side effects, and that also can keep you, your loved ones, your coworkers, and community safe.

Per 247 Sports, ASU is now ranked at #95. No one is going to sign on with ASU until the investigation on Visit-Gate has some type of outcome. It's looking more like a lot of the staff may not be retained or leave under pressure as this drags on. Good team with little direction. Time will tell. Sun ...

Cardinals played like complete crap and deserved to lose today. Which is weird given they came away with a W on the road and made the over.

I will be at this Saturday's Sun Devil's Vs Colorado game, sipping margs at Zipp's on Mill before hand and counting the penalties once in our seats.

Last ASU game I went to was their 2019 upset of Oregon.

Stanford seems to be hitting the wall under Shaw. Only 26-20 since 2017 and 8-11 since 2019 Stanford only amassed 233 yds of offense and were handled by K-State on both sides of the trenches. Cardinal looks pretty lifeless at this point. With a tough schedule looming - their first four conference g...

One quarter into the Fisch era and I am onboard with how organized and properly schemed the defense looks. Players are in the right position and taking the right angles. Maybe it’s because I just finished watching Georgia-Clemson, but across the roster we look undersized and a step behind. Talent is...

The crowd at the Rose Bowl looking much stronger this week, of course.

UCLA trading punches with LSU early on. The Bruins D hitting just as hard. I won’t be surprised if UCLA wins this. LSU’s offense still looks lost without Burrow. What has Coach O won of note without his Heisman shot-caller?

UCLA up 3-0 Vs Hawaii with 12:00 left in the First Q in an empty seated Rose Bowl.

I'm putting UCLA's over/under win total at 8.5. Bruins have 10 or 11 SRs starting on defense and return nearly all of their skill position production from the past two seasons.

Make or break season for Chip Kelly.
