    i screamed "don't fumble!" right as mccoy got to the 5 to meet the defender. so after an amazing run and getting it to the 5, he holds the ball like a loaf of bread to try and get an extra half yard on a 30 yard play. geez he's careless. luckily we somehow pulled the ball out of the pile and now have a 3TD lead again instead of asu momentum down 2 TD's.

    Wow....with this team, NOTHING is easy! But, they've shown that they can be pretty solid when they don't shoot themselves in the foot. Hell, they are up by a decent margin right now after shooting themselves in the foot....

    I've seen a few UT games and Colt seems like the Rafer Alston of that team. Bonehead plays seem to come out of him like it's nothing. *ok maybe I'm exaggerating*

    Is he going to be the starter until he graduates?

    well we're trying to screw this up. the closer we get to sullivan the better the play works out for asu. now it's about to be a 11 point game with 4 minutes and ASU with 2 timeouts to stop it and get it back. we may have to recover an onside kick.

    i'm not even sure we recovered that. i thought it looked like he started to rip it away before the knee hit. nothing easy baby.

    i don't know if they stopped watching, but herbstreit definitely seems to have wished this game ended 20 or 30 minutes ago. he and i have been rooting for the clock to roll all 4th quarter, just for different reasons.

    herbstreit now wondering aloud if we can have time off the clock penalties instead of yardage penalties. hilarious.

    damn, another tipped INT for us. hopefully the 34 points still makes sure we get rid of akina. even an impressive performance is 34 and the rest of the season sucked.

    Doesn't change the fact that there was no definitive video evidence.

    Are you one of those refs that blows a whistle when you think something probably happened? Please don't change to NBA.

    This is what happens when you hire your stepson. If he isn't a ballboy, coach, team doctor, or athletic training staff there is no way he should have been that close to the field. I think I heard ESPN say he's a football operations guy which is a fancy title for he helps with travel plans, visiting recruits, etc. Lucky for him it didn't have an effect on the outcome.
