When you have relatively comparable players, it’s always the team that has

the best plan and execution of that plan. Often that’s obvious who that will be. Sometimes it’s not. That’s why we get beat by teams like Toledo and USF after taking down USC.

WIth what I’ve seen, there’s no reason why we couldn’t dismantle ASU, but I can’t see how anyone can say that here. Absolutely no way of knowing IMHO.

My take: Arizona St is overrated…

Emotional let down concerns me. We were hyper focused against Yewtah.

It's not uncommon for teams to sandbag against much lesser opponents.

SDSU scored more vs UA. Also Weber St scored almost as much as BYU did.

ASU is in major trouble if it needs fan board smack as its motivation.

ASU plays to the level of competition. Expect a close game. They have players with ability and athleticism.

I think it will be close. Hoping for a comfortable win but it will be tough.
