Another poor coaching effort today. 28-7 2nd half after we were winning at half. Cal adjusted. We shit all over the bed. Baloney, the other team was better, period. I said it last year, this is a 4-5 year rebuilding project. We are in year 2. Looking ahead we have only 3 winnable games on the sched...

CAL playing prevent offense. Took their foot off the gas. Let's see if we can make em pay.

AzCatFan2

Is there a mercy rule? Just forfeit the final 15 minutes and get home early.

AzCatFan2

That 3rd quarter was a coaching clinic by our staff of exactly what not to do coming out of halftone. Pathetic.

AzCatFan2

Total implosion. Starts from the top. Did Jedd give the team downers at half?

AzCatFan2

Total collapse. All three phases in the 2nd half. That's coaching failure. Supposed to come out better at the half. Not looking like total dog shit...and that's an insult to dog shit how we've looked this half

AzCatFan2

I have zero faith in Jedd Lasso. For every smart play call, there's at least 2 WTF calls.

AzCatFan2

Can we cover the motherfucking Tight End!

AzCatFan2

I think CAL is getting love from Vegas for their close loss at Notre Dame. But this was the same ND team that lost to Marshall the week before. NDSU versus Marshall, and I'd be shocked if the Bison weren't at least a 7 point favorite on a neutral field. Probably even higher. We just need to avoid a ...

The game was even, and the score reflected this. Total yards gained was NDSU with 407 and Arizona with 394. First downs was NDSU 21, and Arizona 23. TOP, NDSU 31:18 and Arizona 28:42. Look at these stats and say it was a 3-point game, and nobody would be shocked. The difference? Penalty yards, as ND...

NDSU dominated? Game was even all night. The Bison had 10 more total yards, and held the ball for just over 31 minutes. That's even. The difference was NDSU had 60 penalty yards vs 15 for Arizona, Arizona won the turnover battle 1-0, and on 4th down, NDSU was 0-2, and Arizona 1-2. Look at all the st...

AzCatFan2

Don't get a stop here, and it's all but game over. I fear we can't stop them either. They are just too physical.

AzCatFan2

We're a bunch of fucking pansies out there. Pathetic.

AzCatFan2

Is this like 10 straight running plays for NDSU. They are stuffing it down our throats. Ugh.

AzCatFan2

Can't pick up a blitz on O. Can't stop simple run plays on D. Just pathetic.

AzCatFan2

One good game, and now is back to Jedd Lasso bullshit again. So fucking bad. Fire Fisch now. He's as qualified to be a bad coach as my dog is.

AzCatFan2

Better part of 30+ years in Arizona, and never been stung. Killed my fair share of scorpions. Known a few who have been stung, and the smaller the bug, the worse the sting is true. Hope the fan is OK and can make it out to the game Sat night. Numb for a few days but nothing lingering is what everyon...

AzCatFan2

If we lose, it's because NDSU sticks to the game plan and executes as error free as possible. I hope our players take away this lesson regardless of the outcome. Talent wise, with our upgrade in talent, I believe 1-60, we have more. But NDSU is designed to get the most from every player, every play,...

AzCatFan2

I get JDL has a gunslinger mentality. I grew up in S. Florida watching Marino, and totally open field ahead and a gun against his head forcing him to run, and he'd still try to sling a ball into a small window to a triple covered receiver. At least Marino had good reasons. Like a 10 second 40 yard d...

AzCatFan2

Too many mistakes last night. Including some more dumb coaching decisions. Time, down, and distance matter. End of the 1st half, 8 seconds left, on the MSU 35, the chances of scoring a TD is low. But with a TO left, we could run the ball and take the 3 points. What do we do? Call a pass, get sacked,...

AzCatFan2

MSU scores here, and there's no reason to keep watching. Seen this shit too many times before.

AzCatFan2

Too easy. The Pirate adjusted his offense. Our coaches struggle to adjust their pants.

AzCatFan2

One game and we're back to shooting ourselves in the feet every fucking play. Fucking pathetic. Mistakes after mistakes after mistakes.

AzCatFan2

I don't think weather will be a factor. It will be warm and maybe a little muggy, thanks to Kay. Mississippi players may feel right at home. However, the late start time may be a factor. The game will start 10:00 PM Miss time, and it should be beyond midnight by the time the 4th quarter starts. If w...

AzCatFan2

We made mistakes, but we didn't let them get us down! No self implosion like in past years. In years past, if we had blocked our own punt for an opponent's TD, the wheels come up. But today? Kept on chugging and won the game going away!

BTFD

RR was far from perfect. But he was also very successful at Arizona. A .55 winning percentage, after taking over a 4-8 team that was losing the best ever QB in school history. I think RR rightfully saw Arizona has his resurrection tour, and thought a quick turnaround, and he'd be hired at a top scho...

AzCatFan2

My guess is if the Big 12 expands further it will be Utah, Colorado, asu, Arizona, San Diego St and one more That would be enough for espn or fox to have at least two maybe three late window games each week in conference play My guesses for the 18th team would be either Boise St. or UNLV. Boise St....

AzCatFan2

I'm sure the BIG 12 will ask how much value adding the Four Corner PAC schools will bring to the TV discussions. And it might be enough to lure us? The one thing the PAC has over the BIG 12 is the ability to provide content for the 4th, late night window. Add the 4C PAC schools to BYU, and that give...

Report out today The Ohio State University is currently against any additional B1G expansion at the moment. https://saturdayoutwest.com/pac-12/report-major-big-ten-university-doesnt-support-further-expansion/ Only Notre Dame adds money to the B1G right now.

https://twitter.com/jlkurtz/status/1562247355281412096 While I think this is the most likely scenario, one question is, why hasn't it happened yet? And I think the answer is money. The B1G would allow for this expansion to happen today, but the price tag may be a bit too high. In order for Oregon, ...

AzCatFan2

Adding 4 more B1G schools still works out to $300 million, or $75 million a year for schools not worth that much, except Notre Dame. The only real value for the networks adding more B1G teams is the late night window. It's valuable, but probably not worth the all in cost of adding teams, especially ...

We lose nothing by waiting. Leave now for the BIG 12, or wait to see if something better comes along. And if not, end up in the BIG 12. The BIG 12 is Plan B. No reason to enact it until all Plan A options are off the table. And no guarantee the B1G expands now, or ESPN pays for the late night B1G ga...

So PAC-12 value is about late night tv. PAC-12 has leverage and can get a good deal because this is such an amazing thing for networks. Yet, BIg-12 couldn’t get value out of it? The B1G can just come over the top, add UW, Oregon, Furd, and Cal/Utah/Colorado (whoever) and add a late night window gam...

The B1G contract is signed through 2029, negotiated with the 16 schools that will be in the B1G start 2025 in mind. Doubtful the B1G expands beyond the 16 before the end of their contract.

Espn has a lot of power but nearly the amount you think it does It won't (and can't) force schools in SEC to take less money. That is what you are suggesting ESPN wouldn't force the SEC to make a west coast pod without making it monetarily attractive to the current SEC schools. ESPN would prefer no...

There's nothing the soon-to-be BIG 12 minus TX and OU has to offer any PAC school other than increased travel time and budget for all sports.

This latest round of expansion by the SEC and B1G was about money. The BIG 12 expanded to survive. The PAC?

Really not much of a shock ESPN lost all B1G rights. ESPN isn't made of money, already paid for SEC rights, and paying $330 million for Tier 2 B1G rights would have potentially diluted the value of the Tier 2 SEC rights. For Tier 2 games, ESPN still has the ACC, and can negotiate a number likely sma...
