I enjoy the location of my apartment (a few miles from ASsU) but I hate everyone in my complex who goes to ASsU who yells at me when I go to my car or the mailbox in my UofA gear. I hate the d-bag at the gym that is there all the time that is on Dirty Scottsdale all the time who wears his ASsU gear and talks and texts on his blackberry all the time and just sits at equipment and won't let me or anyone else work in when he is just sitting there texting.

I hate people yelling at me before ASU UA games cursing at me and calling my parents inappropriate things when I am walking in, or calling me a f^g for wearing a Zona Zoo shirt. I hate the decendents of the people who yelled at Steve Kerr. I hate ASsU football fans who think they are amoung the elite of college football with the likes of Ohio State, USC, Oklahoma, Florida, when they have beaten ZERO ranked teams the last two years and get embarrased on national televised games.

I hate Jake Plummer, Kyle Dodd, James Harden, Rudy Carpenter, that Kruger Kid, Dennis Erikson, Courtney Simpson, the entire softball team, and Cuba Gooding Jr. the most, but I hate everyone else to ever put on an ASsU uniform.

So with all that said, GO CATS, BEARDOWN ARIZONA, and make us proud to not be scum on Sunday.

Just thought I would post that old post, even though it needs to be updated.

This made me feel better about them.

Same here, and actually have mixed feelings since an OOC win for ASU is good for the PAC.

An ASU loss is a ways below a UA win for me, but nothing is sweeter than when we win and they lose on the same day like two weeks ago.

Nope. Generally don't give a shit what they're doing. In fact, here's my outlook and attitude:

Arizona first in all things.
Pac 12 loyal where Pac 12 faces non conference foes. Including Arizona St.
Then in conference, I am for whatever result best benefits Arizona. Generally this season, and in the format we face, that's rooting for Pac 12 North team when facing a Pac 12 South team, for example.

Territorial Cup has Hate and Relevance

http://espn.go.com/blog/pac12/post/_/id ... -relevance

November, 25, 2014
12:00PM ET
By Ted Miller | ESPN.com

What makes a great college football rivalry? Two things: 1. Passionate and legitimate ill will; 2. National relevance.

Arizona and Arizona State have long had the former, with the bad feelings advancing beyond the typical state rivalry because of a handful of historical issues, including the University of Arizona fighting against "Tempe Normal School" becoming an accredited university in the late 1950s. That one still grates on Sun Devils elders, while snarky Wildcats fans will call ASU "Tempe Normal" just to be annoying.

Those bad feelings ticked another notch forward when Arizona hired Rich Rodriguez and Arizona State hired Todd Graham. They don't like each other.

They were once friends, with Rodriguez hiring Graham away from a high school job in Texas to coach at West Virginia in 2002, but that clearly is no longer the case. Neither says much about the other on the record, but during a visit to ESPN's offices by Pac-12 coaches shortly after they were hired, they stood in stony silence for several minutes just a few feet from each other without making eye contact, despite a certain charming reporter offering up some wonderful repartee that typically would inspire conviviality from even a pair of gargoyles.

That dislike extends through the coaching staffs. Arizona assistants Calvin Magee and Tony Dews, who worked for Rodriguez at West Virginia and Michigan, spent a single season coaching with Graham at Pittsburgh after Rodriguez was fired at Michigan. When they rejoined Rodriguez at Arizona, Graham called them "mercenaries," according to a tweet from Paul Zeise of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette.

Yet history and personal feelings go only so far in the national college football conversation when your team is simply battling for bowl eligibility. Or one team is good and the other shows up only as a spoiler. That has been the case more often than not in the Territorial Cup, which was first contested in 1899, 13 years before Arizona became an official state in the union.

That is where Graham and Rodriguez have most enriched this rivalry: Both teams are now good. This will be the first time they meet as ranked teams since 1986. Both are 9-2. The last time they met as teams with at least nine wins? 1975. Arizona State has posted nine wins in back-to-back seasons for the first time since 1996-97. Arizona owns its best record since 1998.

Both are 6-2 in Pac-12 play. If UCLA should lose to Stanford in a game played simultaneously with the Territorial Cup at 3:30 p.m. ET, then the champion of Arizona also becomes the Pac-12 South Division champ and would play Oregon for the conference title on Dec. 5. Further, the winner also might set itself up to be selected as practically a home team for the Fiesta Bowl. That is, unless the winner somehow beats Oregon in the Pac-12 title game and slips into the College Football Playoff, a not outrageous scenario, by the way.

“This game is the single most important game every year for us and for our fans," Graham said. "Obviously it has a lot more meaning with both teams going for 10th win and Pac-12 South championship on the line. So, yeah, there’s a little extra to it.”

Said Rodriguez: "I don’t believe that ‘if you only win one game but you beat ASU, it’s a good year,’ but it is the most important game on our schedule because it is the rivalry game. The rivalry game is always the most important when you see it with no records. Now that we both have had pretty good years and have even more at stake, this makes it of added importance."

Of added importance to both coaches, though perhaps more for Rodriguez: Graham is 2-0 against Rich Rod since they arrived in the desert. No Arizona State coach opened his career in Tempe at 3-0 versus the Wildcats. While folks in Tucson appreciate the undeniably good job Rodriguez has done rebuilding the program, they also would really, really not like to spend a third year listening to Sun Devils fans squawking at them.

In the Sun Devils' last visit to Tucson, they overcame a 10-point fourth-quarter deficit to win 41-34. Last year, the Sun Devils rolled the Wildcats 58-21, a blowout win that earned them home-field advantage in the Pac-12 title game against Stanford.

The intrigue this year is at quarterback. Arizona's starter, impressive redshirt freshman Anu Solomon, couldn't play the second half of the Wildcats' win last weekend over Utah because of an ankle injury that has been hounding him for some time. He's decidedly questionable, and senior Jesse Scroggins will make his first career start if Solomon can't play.

For Arizona State, there's senior Taylor Kelly. The three-year starter wants to finish his career 3-0 against the Wildcats. He has been inconsistent since returning from a foot injury, but he seemed to find his rhythm in the second half last week against Washington State. His life also will be easier with the expected return of receiver Jaelen Strong from a concussion.

Arizona's home-field advantage might not be much of an advantage. The Sun Devils have won five of the past seven in Tucson, and this rivalry has surprisingly not favored the home team of late. The visitor owns an 8-6 edge in the past 14 matchups, and the Sun Devils' win in Tempe last year ended a four-game winning streak for the road team.

Good news for those who like thrillers: Seven of the past 10 games have been decided by a touchdown or less. The four games before last year's blowout were decided by a total of 15 points, with a fourth-quarter comeback, two blocked extra points, a late field goal and a red zone stand being the difference.

Graham said the game is about the players, not the coaches. Rodriguez, though he probably doesn't want to be seen as agreeing with Graham, said about the same.

"There is a lot of stake," he said. "It is our 19 seniors' last home game, so I would be shocked if preparation wasn’t at an ultimate high.”

I got chippy just reading that article.

The Cats have been very disciplined this year and have played pretty clean in terms of penalties for the most part. They need to continue that and avoid costly/stupid personal foul type of stuff on Friday. They need to be careful with the chippyness.

Chicat · Post by **Chicat** » Tue Nov 25, 2014 3:45 pm

I'll be interested to see just how many penalties ASSU ends up with. We seem to be penalty magnets this year. And I think it's because of the speed that's been recruited on both sides of the ball.

I predicted 9-3, 10-2 this year and got a lot of flack for it. I've been adamant in saying the scum have been overrated and I believe that. They're playing the best offense since UCLA and we know how that went. We will wear out their defense by the second half like all of our games this year. I say we win 31-27.

What was left out of the article was CTG waited till after signing day to fire MattyD from his job at Pitt. MattyD goes to Rutgers but as soon as Coach Magee and Coach Gibson were contacted by RR they told him to go get MattyD - and the rest is history. Lots of bad blood out there but you can bet that MattyD wants this game as much as anyone on the UA staff.

You nailed it DC. Maybe it's because I grew up around those arrogant Assu holes and still live around them but I get close the same enjoyment when they lose as I do for a U of A win. I will NEVER pull for them in a game. Even if them winning would put us in the Rose Bowl. I would STILL not cheer for them. Yes I feel that much hate for them. I was the one who wanted us to rest kadeem and Scott against Utah a couple years ago to give us a better shot at beating the scum. The only devil that gets a pass from me is Pat Tillman. **** asu.
