Safe to say this one has worked out pretty well so far

all very predictable

unfortunately 3 are very negatively impactful for 2025 (Welch/Wilson/Douglas) but barring injury, none of the 3 was expected to start...................although Welch may have if Shemari does not return and if Abney was moved to Nickel to replace Shemari

there are still easily 8-10 more that would not impact anything more than deep depth

and the BEST NEWS OF ALL-----all THREE scholi place kickers are still in the house !!!!

will be interesting to see how they handle the 25 days between games

If you are wondering how Tucson is taking ASU winning the Big-12 Football title? I can tell you they are not taking it well. Since Saturday, I have not seen 1 single person wearing rat gear. Yesterday I went to what is a pretty big gym, then later went to a Costco, followed by a big Pet store and a big Grocery Store as well as a Walgreens. I can tell you that in all of those places, I did not see a single person wearing rat gear, not one, none, zero, zilch, zippo, nada. They are just really hating life right now and do not want to run into any ASU folks while wearing their rat gear so they just don't wear it at all. The looks you get are priceless. It's a great time for the Devils faithful down here it Ratville!! Go Devils!!

Does the Big 12 equally share in the bowl revenue like the PAC 12 did?

Get ready for playoff football. @Joe Healey and I dive into ASU's historic Big 12 Conference victory over Iowa State and what it says about the program. Then we discuss the all-conference honors for the Sun Devils and the biggest snubs. We wrap up with a look at the early portal activity and how Kenny Dillingham's approach could pay dividends.

BREAKING: ASU ranked No. 4 in the College Football Playoff bracket, getting a first-round bye, and is destined to play in Atlanta in the Peach Bowl on Jan. 1, 2025. Undeserving ranking to say the least after the 45-19 win over Iowa State in the Big 12 Championship game.

Many of you have already possibly looked into travel to the game, and flights to ATL shot up pretty dramatically. I booked a flight in BHM, rented a car to drive into ATL, and then dropping it off at the ATL airport, and then Ubering to my hotel. I land in BHM at about 8:00AM on the 31st, so if anyone else is going that route, and wants to carpool into ATL, let me know. For the trip back I'm taking a shuttle from ATL to BHM.

"College football doesn't sleep. You wake up today, and it's the beginning of the portal. It's like, ‘Okay, and it's a whole new season within a season.’" ASU is juggling the construction of the 2025 team with laying the foundation for its playoff quarterfinal prep process

A historical victory that captured the Big 12 championship featured a good volume of contributions from many of the Sun Devil newcomers. Here’s the rundown:

What are your thoughts? He just got AP Player of the week.

GO DEVILS!

The conference has nine teams playing in bowl games this year...

12-17 = Scooters Coffee Frisco Bowl featuring W Virginia vs Memphis (ACC)

12-26 = Rate Bowl featuring K-State vs Rutgers (B1G)

12-27 = AutoZone Liberty Bowl featuring Texas Tech vs Arkansas (SEC)

12-28 = Isleta New Mexico Bowl featuring TCU vs Louisville (ACC)

12-28 = Pop Tarts Bowl featuring Iowa St vs Miami (FL) (ACC)

12-28 = Valero Alamo Bowl featuring Colorado vs BYU

12-31 Kinder's Texas Bowl featuring Baylor vs LSU (SEC)

12-31 Chick fil A Peach Bowl featuring Big-12 conference champion ASU vs TBD between Texss and Clemson

So, we have several match-ups between Big-12 teams and the SEC and B1G along with ACC match-ups...

I'll be rooting for all of our conference brethren in those games...Go Big-12 and Go Devils!!!

With the unexpected success ASU is having on the football field, we can be fairly certain that teams from the Big Ten and SEC are going to be making calls to agents of ASU players this offseason to see if they can be tempted away from Tempe. Based mostly on player stats through today (Nov. 21), here are my guesses as to who will leave and who will stay:

1. Sam Leavitt - STAY
2. Kyson Brown - TRANSFER
3. Raleek Brown - STAY (next year's starter?)
4. Jordyn Tyson - TRANSFER (Texas school?)
5. Chamon Metayer - STAY
6. Myles Rowser - TRANSFER
7. Xavion Alford - TRANSFER
8. C.J. Fite - TRANSFER

Agree? Disagree? Who did I miss?

If you haven't seen this, take a look. Tim Fitzgerald, K State - giving ASU a lot of love that we don't always get at home. It was recorded BEFORE the 12 Team selections were announced. Login to view embedded media

For the team and coaches. Outstanding.

But I am also grateful for this season for the old timers and the guys getting up there in age. They get to have this moment. Maybe even some of the old-time fans could have a health issue right now and this really boosts the mood.

This is why I am critical of the failed leadership. When you let down the people like this, you aren’t impacting just your organization, you are impacting the fans. It’s not about you.

So to the old timers this one’s for you!

What crybabies.....the AD is a real genius....saying as I paraphrase and add the teams he's afraid to hurt their feelings to.....maybe we need to reevaluate playing teams like South Florida, Western Kentucky and Mercer. I guess that deep analysis is why he......oh, and let's not leave out Sarkisian at Texas (crying too) and good 'ol Lane, get paid the big bucks. https://www.espn.com/college-footba...-ad-re-evaluate-nonconference-slate-cfp-picks
