Arizona State

It’s Time.

I cannot wait for tonight’s game—this has been a very long offseason. Expectations for the season Dennis Erickson needs to win at least 8 games to save his job. He’s been building this team for too long. The defense will be generally solid, especially against the run. We have enough talent on the offensive side [...]

Leading up to its big rebranding announcement, ASU’s been celebrating its past. Here’s a recap of all of the videos they’ve released thus far. I’m excited to see ASU put together another marketing campaign—I enjoyed the Sun Devil Laws and the 2007 football season videos.

Some Arizona Wildcat jokes for the ASU-U of A rivalry game

Every rivalry needs some jokes. The annual Duel in the Desert is no different. Here are a few I collected prior to the game: Q. Why can you never end an argument with an AU fan? A. Because they’re always trying to make an extra point! Q. Why doesn’t U of A have ice on [...]

Another week, another disappointing Sun Devil loss. It’s getting tough to figure out what’s wrong here, except that things have simply gotten progressively worse with this team since Erickson took over.

For only the second time in my 23 years as a season ticket holder, I will not be at Sun Devil Stadium on Saturday to watch the Arizona State Sun Devils take on the USC Trojans. Even though USC will likely be huge favorites, it won’t be an easy game for me to miss. Trust [...]

Danny Sullivan’s 50yd touchdown pass to Chris McGaha for the win

It was one of the most baffling plays to win a game. Embattled quarterback Danny Sullivan, who was booed by the home crowd during the video introductions, connected with flu-stricken but wide open Chris McGaha for a 50-yard touchdown to take the lead with only :05 seconds left to play.

The first half was one of the most tragic of recent memory, the officiating downright mind-boggling, and the quarterback play saddening. Danny Sullivan has worked hard. He’s does all that he can. But it’s just not enough. Sullivan simply doesn’t [...]
