Don't get me wrong i'm not taking them lightly, I just don't think there as good as us. I know it sounds cocky but the question do you think we need a warm up game is me not taking them lightly. Looking at the stats, ASU starting QB had 2int's against a soft Temple def. That could mean two things, he sucks and I was right ASU is not as good as us or he's working out the kinks in a warm up game. And that brings me back to the question would you feel better if we had a warm up game?
In my opinion, we need a warm-up game before we play ASU. Everybody knows that the greatest improvement that a team experiences in a one week span occurs between Game One and the week thereafter. There's no crying over spilt milk, and we'll have to act like LSU Tigers, win or lose.
I would have liked to see a warmup game just to get our quarterbacks some live playing time. I think that Arizona st. is coming into a situation where everyone is ready to vent their frustations. This could be good or bad. Hopefully it will be positive and it will turn into a blowout. Temple certatinly doesn't have the team speed Lsu has. As for Oklahoma, Tcu may be a good football team but Oklahoma looked just plain bad.
What about the mental status of the Arizona state players? They have been watching the news and see the condition of New Orleans and other areas. They may not be ready to travel here and play.
My thoughts exactly. BR is tough enough to play in. ASU sent people out ahead to check on conditions. It has to be on the players minds. Your atmosphere will overpower them. Don't let them switch venues on you. Your kids have had a tough time too and will take it out on someone, nobody will beat them in the first game at their house. It will be more emotional than the earthquake game.
