I am here today to head to the Sunday Brunch Buffet table. For I must partake in two heaping scoops of crow and at least three slices of humble pie.
I let my battered fan syndrome consume me. I felt last years beat down would be too much to overcome. I thought even a 35% Cam Rising would inject enough energy in Utah to impose its will.
I did not think ASU could engage in a rock fight like they did a decade ago. I held fast to my belief that it was possible for this team to “learn how to win” this year, I just assumed it would be after yet another humbling at the hands of the Utes. I saw visions of a team heading to the locker room after another loss to Utah with their heads down, only to have the team leadership circle the wagons and vow to turn the corner in November.
This team’s ability to punch, and get punched, and continue to counterpunch is impeccable.
They are beginning to believe.
