I'll watch football till the Bball game starts, then flip over an check the score occasionally. Of course, by the time the BBall time starts, the football game will probably be over anyhow.Merkin wrote:Same with RichRod.

Just a complete disaster.
Did they not vet Yates at all? No way he can keep his mind on football 60 hours a week like he is paid for.
I'll watch the game, well at least until the Scummies put Arizona away (by half?), but this is a season I will try and forget.
That timing works out really well. Watch the football game until the UA players get gassed, so game over by halftime.PieceOfMeat wrote:I'll watch football till the Bball game starts, then flip over an check the score occasionally.

The game is (almost) always close.
Also, if we win we keep them from being bowl eligible, right?

Didn't need to with the holes they opened. It was like watching our running attack from a few years back.UAEebs86 wrote:azgreg wrote:So, 512 yards of rushing is good right?
The 'Cats did not throw a pass in the second half.
On the old board, during one of our "amazing" 6-7 win seasons, and loss to ASU, I said something similar about how'd I rather beat ASU than go to sub-mediocre bowl. And was shouted down, "ASU is just another team, a bowl is better blah blah blah"Puerco wrote:Definitely feel better about the season than I did about last year.

This thread is f-ing great though.
Not me, I hate those crappy money losing bowls. Good for the players I guess, but playing a crappy team in a crappy stadium doesn't really appeal to me, although I do watch them.1stNGrant Frys wrote:On the old board, during one of our "amazing" 6-7 win seasons, and loss to ASU, I said something similar about how'd I rather beat ASU than go to sub-mediocre bowl.

I thought we still got money from even the worst bowl. Its the venue that loses money?Merkin wrote:Not me, I hate those crappy money losing bowls.

Most bowls lose money. Some teams don't go, since they can't afford to lose that much.1stNGrant Frys wrote: I thought we still got money from even the worst bowl. Its the venue that loses money?

Almost last.Merkin wrote:Where did UA end up on passing? Last?
Kind of related, me thinks.
With Anu being injured, and losing his confidence, he was the only chance the UA had to make noise in the passing department.
Don't think Dawkins and Tate can even hit the nets in practice.
I don't get this type of chest-thumping. Of course a few of us were way wrong (myself included) but after going 0-8 in the pac12, can you really blame/fault those of us who expected us to lose against ASsU? That season was a dumpster fire and that doesn't change even with the nice win to end the season.UALoco wrote:What a game! A few of you were WAY wrong. So fun to read this and the ASU thread.

Yes, I can blame you. The Rivalry game is a game where anything can happen. I don't live under a rock, I know this team sucks swamp water. I expected us to lose as well but held out hope and it paid off. I don't think I was thumping my chest...just pointing out how good it felt for us(especially the seniors) to get the win when all odds were against us. BearDown and don't be so sensitive.PieceOfMeat wrote:I don't get this type of chest-thumping.

Ok, then I'll just go ahead and quote you here for posterity.UALoco wrote:Yes, I can blame you. The Rivalry game is a game where anything can happen.

P.s., "anything can happen" is true for any game, in any sport, at any time. Upsets happen/exist. Also, if you "expected us to lose" then you weren't holding out hope any more than any other fan who predicted a loss but hoped for the best.
p.p.s. it's definitely chest thumping if you come in and point and laugh as if you were superior to everyone else who rationally predicted a loss.
::::
p.p.p.s your statement of "yes I can blame you" is in condradiction with your statement that you "expected us to lose as well". If you blame others for expecting the loss that you also expected, then why aren't you blaming yourself?
