It would be really nice to have those timeouts right now. Not to mention the missed FG, the safety, and the blocked pooch punt.

I was wondering that myself. My best guess is that they did not want to kill their momentum or fire up Stanford's defense.

Well give ASU credit for not folding and playing better in the second half, but Stanford does look like a force.

Proud to be a Sun Devil. Played with heart in the 2nd half and you can tell they believed they could win that game. Still showing signs of growing pains but think we're going in the right direction. Todd Graham is a fighter and a hell of a coach. I think Stanford played well in the 1st half obviously but I also think ASU was playing their ranking and may have been big-eyed in the situation. We're going to trounce USC guaranteed, and if not I'll be here first to eat my words. ASU is a good team, just trying to find their identity. Excited for the future.

I'm not sure beating USC is any real big deal this year. Didn't they beat Utah fucking state by a FG?

You're right. Saw a Trojan on here earlier saying ASU was going to get smoked. Just had to make that point. ND will be a good game too.

I said before the game if we made the same mistakes against Wisconsin against Stanford we'd get blown out and that's what happened. Take away the two blocked punts, the INT and the dropped pass on fourth down and the game gets really interesting. That being said I am proud of how they played in the second half. Under previous coaching staffs we'd have just rolled over but this team played with heart for 60 minutes.

Plus that WAS a fumble.. Could've completely changed the game.

You're right, can't shoot yourself in the foot and expect to win the game. We come out of this 4-1 it could be a really interesting year.

At least it didn't turn into the complete blood bath I'd expected it would be. It wasn't the soul crushing nut punch it could have been.

Our special teams is a disaster though.

Two weeks in a row we've got some publicity on a national scale. As they say, all publicity is good. We showed them how not to do it and then how to do it. Turned out positive endeavor for the Devils, I believe.

I miss Brock Osweiler or a gun slinger Kelly throws in a 15 yard box, are run game should be fixed next year with Westerman, and either Tucker/Curtis and I know Sam Jones will commit we will have a beastly oline. Grice is overrated and Deantre Lewis should get more carries along with Foster just my opinion.

[ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H5G6B-snaSM]Brock Osweiler: ASU Highlights - YouTube[/ame] I miss this gun slinging ability opens up the run and spreads the field. We need a dominate line to run the ball.

Brock Osweiler was a 2nd round draft pick with only 1 year of real playing time. They don't grow on trees, dude.
