I hate watching football games on ESPN Gamecast because I think it is more frustrating than watching the game in person. Because you can't question anything. For example, why are we throwing the ball on 2nd and 6 with under four minutes left in the game? Or are we really holding or are the refs calling every little thing. Plus the time doesn't update until some one scores but other than that it was updated regularly.
According to a press release from ASU Sports, Arkansas State junior kicker Josh Arauco was named the Sun Belt Conference Special Teams Player of the Week for the third time this season, including the last two weeks in a row, Monday after hitting all three of his field goal attempts and breaking the school record for career field goals in the Red Wolves’ game against Louisiana-Lafayette.
During the game Saturday, after scoring 10 points in a 16-second span to take a 23-14 lead with 7:39 to play in the fourth quarter, the Arkansas State Red Wolves (4-3, 2-1) saw their lead disappear when Louisiana-Lafayette (4-3, 3-0) answered with a pair of late touchdowns to defeat ASU 28-23 Saturday night in a Sun Belt Conference matchup at Cajun Field.
I honestly believe that losing to UL-Lafayette cost us the Sun Belt. We need the Cajuns to lose two games and we basically have to lose out. Unfortunately, ASU has only one more home game but it isn't until Nov. 22. UL-Lafayette has three more games at home. They do play Florida Atlantic and Troy on the road back-to-back games. SO there is a chance but it seems unlikely.
However, I was reminded that in 2005 ASU only won game on the road but was still able to go to New Orleans Bowl. There is always a chance but it seems very unlikely. I am such pessimistic.
