Arizona @ ASU, Friday, November 28th, 2025, 7 PM

[Mainstreet]

Maybe it is time for the freshman quarterback.

 

[Ouchie-Z-Clown]

Sims just can’t avoid the worst turnovers. They define him.

 

[AZJ]

How do you play 6 years of college football and never get better at holding onto the ball?

 

[Cheesebeef]

It’s kind of a miracle Dilly won a game, much less multiple games without Leavitt and Tyson.

 

[Raindog]

Really, Sims just isn't very good. He had one flukey game but has looked mediocre to awful every other game.

 

[AZJ]

And there's another flag on a crucial play

Dillingham has a lot of work to do this offseason to keep ASU from sliding backwards, and I'm not sure he's up to it. He is likely going to keep his incompetent friends on the coaching staff and I really have to question his ability to evaluate recruiting talent after watching this bleep show of an offense all season.

 

[Covert Rain]

Sims is not the QB of the future for this team.

 

[AZJ]

Well, I think this game is a good microcosm of the team this season. Defense balls out and holds UA to half (so far) their average point total but the offense underwhelms and the ST looks absolutely terrible.

 

[Raindog]

Sims is not the QB of the future for this team.

Luckily, he's out of eligibility after this season.

 

[AZJ]

Well, that's definitely game. Completely out-schemed on that play.

 

[Raindog]

Gotta give it up for ASU defense. They battled all night. ASU offense and special teams are utter *****.

 

[BooksOrangePlanet]

oof asu in big trouble - u of a route

oof

 

[AZJ]

And fitting that Sims last pass is a pick. 5 turnovers by Sims

The Sun Devils were fortunate to muck it up and win three games after losing Leavitt.

Afterward, quarterback and special teams were their Achilles heel.

It might have been one of their better coaching efforts.

Well, it really wasn't that close as the Final score. I have seen a lot of bad ASU performances against au. And I can't say that was the worst. Technically, we were in it until late in the 4th quarter but it never REALLY felt like we would win.

I have no idea how this off-season goes for ASU. Personally I am far from certain Leavitt returns. He is going to get offers. If he doesn't, next year could be rough.

Jeff Sims - Territorial Cup MVP

I hate to pile on one guy because special teams and the general coaching certainly deserves a share of blame, but that might be the single worst individual performance I've ever seen by an ASU QB.

Dyer and Fette are good recruits but I don't know if Dyer is going to be a QB going forward. I thought he was going to transition to WR? But, I don't know. But, I have to imagine Kenny would hit the portal hard to get a QB if Leavitt does leave. And, given Kenny's reputation with QBs, I would hope some good guys would be looking to come here.

Well, we need WRs as well IMO. Dillingham has his hands full this off-season. Let's see what he does.

 

[Mainstreet]

Five turnovers... and no offense... will be the end of almost any team.

I love Dilly, and obviously Sims was good for a couple of games, but there was six years of data to support him being a crappy QB which makes me question his decision making. I dont know your 3rd option, but I cant imagine that he’s worse.

Well, Dillingham is stubborn AF, so I pretty much knew that no matter how bad Sims played, the whole team was going down with the ship.

I know some people might appreciate coaches who have that approach, but personally I'm not a fan of it.

Luckily, he's out of eligibility after this season.

UofA is petitioning for another year of eligibility
