Peach Bowl: Texas vs Arizona State, Jan. 1, 12:00PM, ESPN

My son is in his 3rd year at ASU, quite the shit talker already, lol.  I've watched about half of their games this season and would say probably best to slow down and contain Skattebo at the line before he gets started.  As someone said, he's a bowling ball in the open field, and runs low and punishes DB's.  He has not faced a team with the size and speed of Texas.  On the QB Leavitt, he was shaky at the first of the season but he's gained confidence.  No doubt Texas has the better talent at every position and just needs to win each battle.

Quite a few Texas transfers ended up at ASU:

Xavion Alford DB

Jake Smith WR

Troy Omeire WR

J'Modd Tapp DL

Prince Dorbah DL

Zac Swanson DL

You're so fucked. Anyone who's ever been in Waikiki on NYE knows you aren't going to get any sleep. Long's used to sell rolls of 10,000 firecrackers on the shelves for NYE.

The plus side is that you watch the game until 12, go for an afternoon surf session at Pops or Number 3's, take a late afternoon nap, and then watch the Spectrum replay that evening over take out from Siam Square's Thai. Or so I've heard.

We should win this game however I will tell you right now it will be a long day if we try and tackle Skattebo above the knees, especially the first guy.

Must be Manny Diaz

I’d figure Oregon is better than 7.7%

Oregon and tOSU will be a battle. They should have the exact same chance to win it all.

PSU will advance. We will advance.

Georgia and Notre Dame will be a battle.

Then it will be PSU vs the winner of the GA vs ND. And us vs the winner of OR vs OSU.

PSU will lose because they aren't that good. And our game will be a tossup.

The firecrackers aren't available on Oahu anymore, but the large scale mortar launching fireworks have always been illegal. It makes no difference. People routinely spend more on NYE fireworks than on Christmas and just launch them from their neighborhood streets. It really is worth seeing if you ever get the chance.

Hank needs to get some burnt orange mortars and let them fly.

I was skiing with my buddies on Mammoth Mountain.  We got shit-hammered watching the game, stumbled to a bar "to pick up chicks", got more shit-hammered and I'm not sure what happened after that, but I'm pretty sure no chicks were involved.

There’s still no chicks in mammoth bars, that’s for damn sure

This has all the makings of a game where we come out hot in the 1st half and are tackling Skattebo by the ankles, but my worry is in the 2nd half when we get a little fatigued we'll inch up a  bit and get to the waist/chest area, coming out flat in 3Q.

Who will be scout team RB this week?

Your mother. Because she likes to be under a bunch of sweaty dudes

When I lived there I had neighbors with asthma that would leave the island on New Years because the smoke got so bad.

Ok….ok

Get back to me in the first quarter of the game thread.

I certainly hope I am wrong but I have seen things

Add that to “I am an idiot” and I will give you a dollar.

If you can find it watch the Bluebonnet Bowl from 1987.

Tackling Iron Head was like trying to tackle a VW Beetle.

40 carries for 117 yards. 2.9 ypc long run of 16 yards. I’m lost, what am I missing that’s so kick ass about that?

They have to beat Ohio State and likely us just to get there. Tough road. But OSUs is the sameish so not sure why they’re 10% more.

Because the vast majority of analytical systems say Ohio State should be favored by even more over Oregon than the current point spread.

The first half.

Shit i am old.

Seems like he was killing us in the first half and we stuffed him in the second half.

But……I don’t know what day it is nor do I give a fuck.
