Mississippi State took away the goal posts from Starkville after their 24–20 win over Arizona State Sun Devils. The signs are showing for ASU and the skepticism over their Big 12 fate will only get louder with each defeat. They are sorely missing Cam Skattebo ’s bruising rushing style, but does that really mean last year was a one-man show? That’s the question now dividing Tempe.
When a fan suggested that ASU without Cam is nothing, 247Sports reporter Chris Karpman stepped in to crush the narrative with facts . “They had two other RBs each run for 100+ yards on the road against an SEC team on Saturday. And they have Tyson, four returning OL starters and several returning All-Big 12 defenders to the best run-stopping defense in the Big 12. Lame post,” he fired back. Karpman’s right.
