Thoughts on the AZ State game

Good points, GooseDawg78. I just hope we aren't looking ahead to 'Bama. All these out of conference teams want to knock us off. It will be a hostile and hot environment. Here's hoping you bring us back a great big W.
GO DAWGS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think they will be a little bit motivated this Saturday, but not like a SEC team would be. If we can get pass rush we will run over them. There Oline isn't a huge concrete wall, they are all smaller then the average linemen of the SEC teams we will play. I would put them in the company of Central Mich. size, so I think if we catch the ball and stick to this game as well as execute like we should then we'll do just fine and maybe actually get run time with the media for more then 12 seconds. Only concern on our side is getting the pressure and defending against the pass.

I agree we need to pressure the QB. We need to make Carpenter want to dig a hole and crawl into it from all the pressure. The DBs need to play better than they have recently.

Our offense should put points on the board but our D needs to play well or else we could end up in a shootout.

We need to pressure the QB. I want to put so much pressure on Carpenter he digs a hole and crawls into it. Our DBs need to play lights out. ASU is going to air it out early and often. This game is more about our D than our O.

The offense should look good against a relatively weak ASU D. I just don't want this one turning into a shootout in Tempe.
