Thoughts on the AZ State game

My thoughts on this game.

Az is going to be angry at their loss and come out playing hard.
The heat is going to be brutal after our mild summer. Hydration will be important. We've had players cramping in all the games thus far.
Out secondary will really need to be on their toes and pass rush will definitely need to step up.

Get the ball to our wide receivers, often. Open up the run game.

Score? Dawgs win. 31-21

They looked ahead to us which will make our win come a little tougher, but not as impressive to the voters since they lost. But on the bright side, our O-line will handle their D much better than SC, which will make everything come easier for the offense. KM will run wild and I'm sure we will catch many more passes this Saturday!
GO DAWGS!!!!!

My thought is that losing to UNLV means you aren't a very good football team.

A Big wlayton Bingo!

I am in reasonable agreement that Dawgs will be more effective in AZ than SC. But I must confess that I am already looking past the Sun Devils to our game with the Crimson Tide.

I know; it's a terrible thing to do, but I can't help worrying about Alabama...
