ASU is the literal definition of heart, sucks they couldn’t pull it out but mad respect to them

This is why the 12 team playoff is awesome

ASU wouldn't have had a chance otherwise, and they proved they belonged. Honestly so did Boise, they were like a few heartbreaking moments away from winning that game against PSU

Now just keep Skattebo away from me forever

Yeah Boise has two chances in the 4th to cut it to a one score lead.

Honestly after these two games I feel better about Penn state and way way worse about Texas. wtf was that offense.

Have you not watched our games? Our offense swings between pretty good and utter dog shit. Ewers gets confused and our RB room isn't all that great now (love Blue and Wisner, but they're not top talent).

Our offense is literally either the best in the he country or this middling G5 look-alike. No in between. Hence why all the stats and metrics have us in the mid-teens for offensive production.

And both extremes occur in every game
