TEX:
ISAIAH BOND/WR: Bond moved to Tex from Bama and Xavier Worthy became known as "that slow receiver from last year" We have plenty 6'+/200+ WR. We need a Treek Hill
ANDREW MUKUBA/DB: The kind of DB we like can play every position in the backfield but usually lines up at FS
ASU:
CAM SKATTEBO/RB: Cam has looked like a man among boys all year. Let's see if he can be a man among men today
XAVION ALFORD/S: X actually started out as a highly touted recruit who started at TEX.After a year at USC and 2 years on the sidelines he found his way to ASU. X is described as an inspirational team leader
Well three of those 4 had huge imapct on the game.
Skattebo - might be an ass, but he put up 300+ total years on the best defense in the country.
Texas' problem in the second half of the game is that they took their foot off the gas and tried to run out the clock. The problem was ASU was keying off the running game. Because of the 3 and outs due to not being able to run ASU held the ball for 13 minutes in the 4th quarter, and the defense wore down. The total TOP was like 40/20 mins in favor of ASU. Good on them that they stuck with their gameplan and wore Texas' defense down. Problem in OT was that they had to rely upon the pass and that made them one dimensionl, which favored Texas, thus the result. Awesome game. ASU really showed what the 12 team playoff was supposed to be about.
