    Could you imagine what that field would look like with the amount of paint that is put down?
    Would be cool though.

    192 yards and three touchdowns against Oregon.

    This is an overblown argument. If it was so easy to do that against those types of teams, lower-level players would do it all the time. They don't. He had the second-best season as a running back ever, regardless.

    Penn State has a top-five defense. Of course it was going to be more difficult. He clearly was their main focus too. And he had to work really hard for everything he got, but he still was just the second back to go over 100 yards against them this season. He did have 197 and three against the No. 1 team in the country this year.

    And the attention he drew in the box allowed the Broncos breathing room to throw.

    He got 100 but it took 30 carries and it became comical having him rush into a wall every first down.

    The blown coverage on the long TD was in part, and maybe in big part, to focusing on him.

    It was and Boise should have adjusted there, but I guess stick with what brought you there.

    Jeanty had 104 yards. Average runners would have had about 45 yards with what he had to work with. I was fully impressed with his jump cuts, second effort and raw strength.

    Not sure how the Horns missed blocking that punt.

    If ASU can turn the running into the kicker penalty into a TD, we might have a game here.

    At least Arizona State is winning the time of possession battle.
