Per Jon Wilner's Best of the West Rankings this week...
The Big-12 teams that make the list are...
#2 BYU that hosts #10 ranked AU this weekend (BYU is unbeaten and coming off a BYE while the Cats lost at home to Texas Tech this past weekend)
#5 Utah travels to Tempe to face #8 ASU on Friday night (Utah is also coming off a BYE week while ASU has a short week of practice before he game)
#6 Colorado hosts K-State that is not ranked in Wilner's poll this week...(both teams are coming off BYE weeks)
Note: the Cats were ranked #7 last week by Wilner, while our Devils were ranked #12, hence the slide vs jump related to both teams in his rankings this week...
This is what he says about Utah as they face the Devils later this week...
"A highly challenging game in Tempe for the Utes was not on our Big-12 bingo card this season. Then again, very little about the Big-12 season thus far was on our Big-12 bingo card. It's utter mayhem and it's absolutely glorious."
And, this is what he had to say about our Sun Devils...
"ASU's four victories are against teams with a combined record of 6-15 (Wyoming 1-4 and Kansas 1-5 and Miss St 1-4 and Texas St 3-2). And you know what that means? Absolutely nothing. The Sun Devils are out of the gutter and unapologetically strutting down the street alongside every other four-win team across the FBS."
It's great for our Devils to be "out of the gutter" for a change and would be even greater to add a win against a Top 25 ranked team this Friday in SDS, right..??
I'm still filling out my Big-12 Bingo Card down here in Geezerville, where college football fans from all over this country are also filling in their conference bingo cards, and there is plenty of mayhem and chaos going on in other places like the SEC and B1G, where there have already been plenty of big time upsets, although, at the end of the day, the Big Boys in those places will still be going to the playoffs, while that may not be the case in the Big-12, if the conference winner has something like 3-4 losses, right..??
The #1 ranked Oregon Ducks, in Wilner's Best in the West rankings, will host another top ranked team in Ohio St on Saturday before another full-house in Eugene...
I sure hope that our Sun Devil fans we will do the same thing with our game against the Utes in SDS on Friday night...
Go Devils and Beat the Utes!!!
