They look like the best team in the Big12. Could easily be the in the CFB Playoffs.

Our schedule turned out to be tougher than Florida’s. Their run of UCF, Tenn, Kentucky, LSU & FSU has not really held up over the course of the season.

I really like Kenny Dillingham. Good young coach who has the fire of Nick Saban. Some big boy in need will soon pluck him away from the desert.

ASU is one of the biggest schools in the country, located in one of the largest and fastest growing metro areas. They can be a big boy if they choose.

Every season there is that one Saturday that turns everything upside down but yesterday was that Saturday on steroids. I sure cleared out the herd making it easier for the committee. However, they might now have pressure put on them to let a 3-loss team in.

The biggest blemish on their record is only beating us by 7 and scoring just 23 offensive points

Unlikely after conference realignment. Big 12 teams are going to be at an even bigger disadvantage going forward with the increased revenue disparity compared to Big 10 and SEC.

Also schools in major cities with an NFL team rarely have a top college football program. Everyone is a NFL fan. USC is an exception, but they were an established college power before the NFL came to Los Angeles. Washington & Miami are other exceptions. But if the Will was there at ASU to be a major power, they already would be.

Arizona State was 3-9 last year in Dillingham’s first season. I’m sure Goat would’ve fired him. Teams can be turned around quickly in this NIL age, as the Sun Devils are proving.

Which was 2 wins more than the previous two seasons combined. Lebby took over a 5-7 team.
