I think the ASU game is the biggest of his career so far. I?ll be there for it. I?ll watch us go big or implode.
You don?t get to six wins without ASU, and there?s a world where you don?t get to 4 without them either? This is also assuming we beat USM in Hattiesburg at 11AM in 110 degree heat. The most MSU thing of all time would be going down there and shitting the bed, and if that happens put a fork in Lebby, ASU won?t matter.
Texas, UGA, and Arizona State are our 3 toughest games in my opinion. Arizona State returns more starters than almost any team in the nation. They are loaded. Have continuity. And we play them early. Terrible recipe for us. If we win that game, we're absolutely bowling. Lose and we still have an outside chance.
People thinking ASU is not a top 4-5 team on our schedule is an out of place "SEC-bias" to me.
Yep. They return 17 starters, including their qb is who Big 12 preseason player of the year.
Have my tickets and will be there with bells on. :)
It is nice and fun to dream. Reality will not be so nice and fun.
We should be 2-0 when we see AZ State. This game will be a view into the rest of the season for sure.
my bad, had a brain fart and thought alcorn was game 2. oops
ASU beat us by 7 points at their house they had a NFL running back and we had a lame duck coach who drives naked through Wendys. I don't know where the 17 yawls brain cells are. I think now we beat the shit out of them!
"This shitty team" went to the playoffs last year and will be preseason top 15. We have to have this win to get to 6 IMO, which is why I say it's the most important game of the Lebby era because we HAVE to find a way to win 6 this year, but acting like this is some throwaway game where we'll walk in and dirt roll them is having way too much belief in a team that went 2-10 last year. It's also the exact type of belief that we had last year rolling into Tempe.
Saying all that, I don't think they'll be as good this year because I don't think Sam Leavitt can carry a team. He feels a little Nick Marshall-ish to me. Not that they play the same style but in 13 Marshall had all those weapons around him and everyone thought he was a great QB. In 14 those weapons left and they went 8-5.
