U of A gets SMOKED!!!!!

[Arby Rick]

Wow, freshman Ty Lawson scored 18 and North Carolina absolutely butchered the wildcats IN TUCSON. This is the WORST home loss for Lute Olson in 24 years as coach of the team.

I know, I know, as a Sun Devil fan I know what its like to get blown out and our team has a LONG way to go, BUT, you wildcat fans have to be concerned over this. What the heck is going on here? Whats happened to the once mighty cats? Are they that bad this year?

Anyways, I cant believe they got routed that badly. Thats gotta hurt......

[Arby Rick]

Oh, the score was 92-64. That is a royal butt whooping......

[Gee!]

It happens.. Especially when the Cats have the toughest schedule.. Until the sun devils play someone other than western wyoming, keep it hush.. :bibl:

Hey wait a sec, we DO play in the PAC 10 right Gee??

Oh, and I'll bet we could have at least done as well as you guys had the Tar Heels come to Tempe dont you think???

Maybe we will beat the Cats when they come here next time????

[Gee!]

You only PAC-10 teams cuz your in the PAC-10.. Look at the teams ASU schedules outside the conference.. Thats what Im talking about.. And I seriously doubt youd do better than the Wildcats against UNC.. Top teams only play top teams.. So while your playing Colgate and Western Wyoming, the Cats will be taking on contenders cuz we earned it.. Earn something, then come back and talk..

[Arby Rick]

This is just for you Gee......Western Wyoming Community College Preview!!!

Go Spartans!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This year's Men's basketball team will rely on experience and toughness as it starts its inaugural season as the Mustangs. Six sophomores return from last year's Spartan's team all of whom experienced significant playing time. The returning players give the team much needed experience and leadership mainly at the guard positions which is a must at college level basketball.

Starting point guard, Sadraac Numa, is back to lead the Mustangs after showing great leadership and growth last year. After sharing starting roles at the shooting guard position last season, Tom Olsen and Auston Robinson also return. Starting much of the season last year at a number of different positions is third year player, Graden Trumble, who can play the point or shooting guard. Tye Allen starts his sophomore campaign after serving as a very important role player last year as the small forward. The only returning post player for the Mustangs is Mitch Jones who started the majority of the games last year at the power forward position and proved to be one of the top defenders in the region. The Mustangs added a seventh sophomore to the team with transfer player Harris Danesi who also brings much needed experience at the small forward after playing significant minutes for Western Nebraska Community College last year.

"We lost a lot of close games last year and the problem was experience," says Coach Jones, in his third year as the Men's Head Coach. "You can't do much about experience, you either have it or you don't and this year we have it. I hope that I am finally over the transition period as a new coach, we now have a good balance of freshmen to sophomores and that is so important to be successful in this region." "I feel like we have a great recruiting class this year, we didn't settle on any player and we only lost one recruit who we are fortunate to get as walk-ons. Toughness was our number one priority this season. We tried to sign good players who have the toughness needed to endure a successful season in this conference and region."

[Arby Rick]

Look pretty tough to me!!!

[Tengeta]

I don't really get what happened, we lost Williams and the gap widened from there...

You think after the first 10 missed threes you would just stop trying. That might have helped too.

All I know is that we had a chance to show ourselves on national television just like the Cards got to on MNF, and we got blown the **** out.

[T.J.]

Congratulations for flooding the thread Arby

But yea, we got spanked. Time to push the panic button and whip these guys back into shape

Why would I care? I just pulled a name outta nowhere for a school that no one has heard of.. Much like the teams ASU plays in basketball.. :bibl:

[SULLY]

he Gee is the only reason UofA plays pac 10 football games because they are in the pac 10?? think about that one for a minute.

[kjbad]

OK, so I'm in El Paso for the Texas vs. the Nation game on Friday. I'm on the UTEP campus right now typing on the message board...I'm wearing maroon and gold, and my gold Sparky snow cap. It's all good...until this guy walks in with a UA hoodie and a blue Wilbur Wimpcat hat. He sees me. I see him. The entire place STOPS and watches us look at each other. Wifey grabs my arm...then he sits down, so I sit back down. The music starts again. Everybody goes back to normal.

This is why I love being a Sun Devil fan. You don't back down, no matter where you are...especially not to a Wimpcat. :)

[Arby Rick]

[Arby Rick]

Wow, the U of A loses again???

In their last 16 games against ranked opponents they have won a whopping 4 times!!

That is HORRIBLE!!

As Dick Enberg would say.......

OHHHHHHHH MYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!

:bibl: :bibl: :bibl:

[WhyNotTheCards?]

UofA has lost 6 of their last 8 games I believe, after starting out 12-1. WOW

[Tengeta]

Looks like Arizona basketball is all about the Suns and no one else now...

Jesus I'm starting to think Lute is actually losing it. How do you have a top scoring player in the PAC-10 and have the highest average score and drop **** like this?

The Cardinals curse is spreading to every sport in the state ******! ASU and U of A Basketball and Football went nowhere this year...

(Stop saying ASU is that much better at football, thats like saying the Lions are better than the Raiders because they have a WHOLE one more win. Congrats on being one ounce less shitter than us!)

I think you said that backwards, and is your bowl game really worth mentioning?

[Arby Rick]

Wow, The Devils almost pulled off the huge upset tonite. They had a shot at the buzzer but couldnt get it v. Washington State. Oh well, we played them very, very tough. Im proud of the Devils and it looks like we are headed in the right direction!!!

I wanted that shot to go off so bad lol

[Arby Rick]

U of A loses again!!!!!!

Wow, I cannot believe that the Wildcats lose again and are now on the outside looking in with regard to the NCAA tournament IMO.

Who would have ever thought that they may not go to the dance this year.

Like Ive said, I know, I know, ASU is still "O-fer" in the conference, but at least we are playing competitive against good teams and look like we are going to break through soon, but the Wildcats not making the Tourney is starting to look like a reality and that has got to be a shocker to the Wildcat fans!

What the heck is wrong with your team U of A people???......

[kjbad]

Arby Rick, as an ASU fan, I live in a really fragile glass house and I don't plan on throwing any stones...

Come on KJ, youve thrown some stones before, no?

You dont think they would be hammering us if the situation was reversed?

This is their pride and joy and they are really faltering this year. Hey, they still may make some noise in the tournament cuz anything can happen, but this is the worst shape Ive seen Wildcat basketball in many years.

Even though we are losing, weve played a lot of very good teams very close. We should have beaten UCLA!! That 18-2 run was rough!!

That's the thing about Cats fans, most can't take the heat and don't know when to admit their team sucks on occassion. Not ALL, but most I have come across. I think they are defensive because they know they aren't as good as they think they are.

I've thrown plenty of stones...but only during football and baseball season. :)

[Tengeta]

Speaking of baseball, the Wildcats baseball team is finally worth mentioning again.

[Arby Rick]

I've thrown plenty of stones...but only during football and baseball season. :)

Dont worry KJ, The Sun Devils' house has shatterproof glass!!!

[RCrds4real]

That tiny little crap hole town "Tucson" Will never be as good or as important as Phoenix Metro area.... The only thing that North Nogales has is basketball ..and they suck this year !! Bear down Nogales......

no throwing stones here.......:bibl: :bibl: :bibl:

Thats fine, we showed you how to beat Washington, Cal, Oregon, Oregon State, and umm... yourselves.

Then again, thanks ASU for not letting LA sweep the state of AZ... there is one positive from this for cat fans ^_^

[Tengeta]

oh yeah and Stanford too

[SULLY]

but isnt the University of North Nogales suposed to be the class of the pac 10??? or thats what i hear from all of the rat fans in tucson anyways. out of the top 25???? wow need some more salt for those wounds?

No, thats pretty stupid. The fact is that UCLA is the class of the Pac 10 when it comes to basketball. They have the most history, its really that simple. Any Wildcat fan or other school fan that says otherwise is in denial.

Whats at hand here is the comparison between the Wildcats and the Sun Devils. The fact is the Cats are better, period. I've already admitted our teams sucking horribly right now, but that doesn't really give you guys that much room to talk.

[Gee!]

Sun Devils WIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Now see Wildcats, THATS how you beat the Trojans! :bibl:

explain to me the great accomplishment in this then maybe I might be able to undersatnd..

[Gee!]

Until ASU learns to win a championship like UofA has, we have nothing to talk about.. :toothorn:

[Arby Rick]

explain to me the great accomplishment in this then maybe I might be able to undersatnd..

Anytime you beat a ranked team its an accomplishment, especially for an upstart program like the Sun Devils......

[Arby Rick]

Until ASU learns to win a championship like UofA has, we have nothing to talk about.. :toothorn:

we?, maybe you dont, but us ASU fans have plenty to talk about. We are going to do nothing but improve and will soon be very respectable. Ive got a lot of faith in our new coach, his system, track record and potential recruits. Its all gonna get better for The Devils now!!!

[SULLY]

Until ASU learns to win a championship like UofA has, we have nothing to talk about.. :toothorn:

and until you make a bowl game this century come football season WE have nothing to talk about.....

[DUSK884]

ASU basketball... so many punchlines.

[SULLY]

dusk thx for the avatar but we can use those same punchlines for UNN football. can you honestly tell me that little stoopid is a good coach? didnt he promise 3 national championships already? if they make a NC for being gullable you folks in tucson take the trophy

[gb1]

Screw UofA! I was excited that ASU finally won.The Wildcats getting spanked by my Tar Heels was truly great to watch OOOOOOOH wait we beat them last year too! LOL

UofA out of the top 25 LOL!

[kjbad]

I just wanted to state for the record that I have not jumped on this bandwagon...I enjoyed the games, but we still have one more go-round this year and I'm definitely not *confident* yet.

The Lumberjacks topped you guys? ouch. Hate to shove it in your guys faces, but your really just asking for it.

You only PAC-10 teams cuz your in the PAC-10.. Look at the teams ASU schedules outside the conference.. Thats what Im talking about.. And I seriously doubt youd do better than the Wildcats against UNC.. Top teams only play top teams.. So while your playing Colgate and Western Wyoming, the Cats will be taking on contenders cuz we earned it.. Earn something, then come back and talk..

you really didnt say that, did you?:ok:
