And UA is without a doubt the best 3 loss team in the country with their new QB Fifita in place of De Laura. I hope OSU wins, but I'm not optimistic. Called it, unfortunately. AZ and Utah are the Big12's problem going forward. I really hope our ASU game is not a late game. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't think that they can pull that type of game out of their puppy chow two times in a row WHEN we see them in the PAC Championship. Penix was injured in the 4 quarter against the Ducks... Looked like ribs or chest. He hasn't been the same since. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing worse than having to adjust to a kind of heat that also feels humid this time of year. An East Coast Prime Time Kickoff would be ideal. Continue to get eyeballs Prime Time AND be able to work in PNW type conditions would be great. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want no part of the Wildcats in Tucson. ASU is playing better but not at the level of AZ. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

tee duke No. 55 Share Posted October 29, 2023 I've been impressed with Arizona's QB Fifita. He's a fighter and has been no-quit in every game I've seen him in. I think he was the back-up going into the season. Not anymore. The Wildcats are a good team. Nice to see them succeed. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was sailing throws last week against ASU. He simply does not miss those throws when he is right. I think he is nursing a rib or shoulder injury that tightened up on him after the adrenaline from our game wore off. It reminds me of what happened with Herbert his Junior year I think it was. Had several games where he just missing throws that he didn’t normally and it came out after the season that he was pretty banged up, but wasn’t going to sit. I think you are right. Our defense certainly beat the crap out of him and he was hurting late in that game. I was literally sitting here looking at the Huskies last 2 weeks of football and asking myself how in the world did we lose to those guys. I think you just helped me answer that question. But, I think that if we get another shot at them in LV, that we will rock their world. Edited October 29, 2023 by Desert Duck Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not the heat, it's everything else about the desert and playing when your body is telling you it's time to go to bed Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
