I love all bowls. I am so happy to read bowl projections again (stopped when I wasnt sure Az would win again). Anyways, wanted to look around and see how the projections changed after the rankings last night; they are all over the map: Jan. 2 Cactus Big 12 vs. Pac-12 *New Mexico vs. Arizona (USA Tod...

I work in Scottsdale and my work was giving out a bunch of tickets... So I believe the number but it's different from the "paid" attendance figure

Would go along with their "1-0" math too. "All that matters is that you are 1-0," Graham said. "Games like that are catastrophic if they go the other way. But when you win them, they make you better." The win moved ASU to 1-1 on the year, but it also continued to raise serious questions about a team...

Back to football attendance, 6 pac-12 home games this weekend. Only 2 greater then the 48,912 Az got. Tempe had 51K and UCLA had 76K. UofA is average to above average in yearly attendance. Pretty solid. WSU UCLA 76,255 ASU Wash 51,695 ARI Utah 48,912 ORE Furd 48,633 CAL OSU 41,874 USC Col 37,905

Ah the traditional black and copper. Takes me back to the games of years past....weird but its nice to see the Arizona Rattlers play 11 man football now.

Knee to the head against ucla and the targeting that wasn't called against Colorado (which led to a fumble). Although they didn't say it was a concussion against Colorado but I think it was.

He was pretty messed up after that. Was worried, then he came back to hit some solid kicks. Especially to send it into the next OT.

Gilbertcat

It will be put on the same desk as the "he touched the ball" complaint and the late start times with no off weeks. As the boarding doors closed on his flight home from Beijing on Saturday night (Sunday afternoon there), Pac-12 commissioner Larry Scott had just finished watching Oregon upset Stanford...

Gilbertcat

Ill just leave this: We know that Graham and Patriots coach Bill Belichick are good friends. Does the university really want its football program viewed with the kind of eyebrow-raising skepticism that shrouds the Patriots? Don’t you want to know what “intel” made Oregon so paranoid? I do. Graham pr...

I like how Tempe's combos (all of adidas for that matter) have to have cute names. Its like they are selling perfume.

Gilbertcat

Was watching the pac-12 network yesterday and they stated he left after a "head-to-head" hit so at least part of the pac-12 was in agreement.

Gilbertcat

I saw UW brought the sheets to block their hand signals from being stolen. If that many coaches are making a point about Toad's program, it shows that coaches do not respect him.

Gilbertcat

Strange they would have a mwc team in the cactus bowl. Will most likely be west Virginia or Texas tech in that game. I think its because that projection has 1 team in the final 4, 1 in a new years 6 bowl, and the big 12 has 6 other lower bowl tie-ins. Only 5 teams are bowl eligible with WV likely b...

ESPN has Arizona vs BYU in the Hawaii bowl. Still better than the destinations East of the Mississippi, but the only way I make a game is if it's somewhere in the Southwest. C'mon Cactus, Arizona, Poinsettia...Vegas? Schlabach has a Cactus bowl projection against Air Force. I like the idea of the H...

Gilbertcat

I want cactus, AZ bowl, or poinsettia personally. Don't want to go east. We did our time in the independence already. But man, a lot can happen between this weekend and Jan 2...kids will be rusty

Gilbertcat

Solid crowd last night. Some zoo left and people with kids but it was fun. Most stadiums weren't full. It's the new age. Heck tempe state had full sections in the lower level open yesterday. I drove down from Gilbert, past an accident that delayed me for 30 minutes, was waiting for a reason to leave...

Dragged my butt here. Don't make me leave at half cats!

Its probably just me but it seems the RR going to "Insert School" talk has died down. A lot of what I have read is that other schools have interest but another coach is topping their list. Maybe I am just drunk but hopefully this calms the inner circles down and they can focus on football this weeke...

Gilbertcat

...Anyways that is why he is not in the discussion. Its hard to sell a new school on an under-performing coach who has baggage of leaving your school overnight and now the sign stealing issue. RR never over promised, always used the "why not" Arizona slogan. Doesnt always work but it comes off a lot...

Serious question, GCU has 2 years left of probation, do they make the tournament before Tempe? They finished 2nd in the WAC last year.

I didn't like the grass and the bubble drain that was needed. Had to be up at row 15 to see the other side. But that's just me.

Gilbertcat

I didnt like him when he was hired. I thought he was a jerk and had too much baggage. But that smile when he said "Yeah, I know who Matt Scott is" won me because I knew what he could do with him. 3 bowls later, I have been happy. I mean he took this team to the Fiesta Bowl, that was a dream season l...

Meh they had one last shot at a bowl game last week. Can't believe anyone is surprised. Won't win till Hawaii game. Maybe.

Looks like browning will play

I thought the game was over when replay reversed that easy int call. It was a 10 point swing since the scum got 3 and then a quick TD. But then replay confirmed a bad td in overtime and toadster went all seattle in over-time. Glad I am not a fan of either team because today would be rough. You eithe...

Gilbertcat

It's not even the first time I have seen this crew mess up. I know that's on the replay guy but this crew is bad.

Gilbertcat

Wow pac 12 refs just reversed a legit int and scum tie it. Replay is useless.

Gilbertcat

Lots of good seats still available....

Wouldn't Judy Van Horn have to be let go if RR went to South Carolina? I am not sure of her exact role in the RR working the Michigan kids to hard issue but I cant see her and RR working together.

Hopefully this was like BJ against USC when he learned to pass for Jr. 6-6 will get a bowl since there might be a few 5-7 teams this year. Sucks to be the goal though.

Recruiting been bad. Injury has been crazy but that play blew my mind

The line went up to 7.5 (from 7 down from the suggested 8.5)...so there is that.

Using the 10 day forecast I feel the mid 50s is a reasonable guess on what it might be a few days more.

One thing is attendance might be low and we may get a Stanford effect type game. Hopefully no injuries this weekend.
