The Extra Point Podcast: Would a Peach Bowl win by the biggest in ASU history?

[@cambino1586]

Cam Skattebo really put this team on his back, or at least that’s what it seemed like at the beginning of the season. Now everyone has rallied and more stars are emerging. Amazing to see for ASU!

[@tru3dialect]

Boy if we find a way to beat texas or clemson would be crazy!

[@Calvin-xp4qp]

Family roots are in Idaho but grew up in Arizona. Proud of ASU & BSU players especially the coaching staff for both teams. As for Alabama....

[@cloudcover6479]

In modern history-probably. In all time history #1 1975 Fiesta Bowl V, Nebraska then Rose Bowl 1986 V. Michigan. A Peach Bowl win would be more of a - we're back announcement. Speaking of history, ASU started its major bowl run against N.C. in the Peach Bowl in 1970. A modern major bowl win is long past due. G.L. ASU !

[@MarkRichards]

I'm glad I am not the only one old enough to remember those two bowl games !

[@gregnelson1330]

Kush beating Nebraska is comprable to Namath beating the Colts in #3, the gtreattest game in my lifetime! High praise from a Cats fan.

Matt Barrie 🐐

John Jefferson (77) and Derrick Rodgers (96) were my top Sun Devils.

[@mediadugout2684]

@@Lopez-ow1ur John "JJ" Washington was the GOAT!

[@johnwendland7908]

ASU will be strategizing for the Tex/Clemson teams...they have been disrespected, will be underdogs and can shock the college football world

[@RaulRom59]

While we Sun Devil fans are very happy and excited for this coming bowl game, it is not even close to being the most important bowl appearance in ASU history. I have been following Sun Devil football since the late 60s. Our family had season tickets for over 30 years since then from 72 to 2004. As a matter of fact, the first major bowl win for ASU came in the 1970 Peach Bowl. They beat North Carolina, in a raging snowstorm. Ended that season 11-0 GO DEVILS!

[@RaulRom59]

To me the biggest bowl win was in the 1975 Fiesta Bowl against Nebraska. They finished the season 12-0 and a final rank of #2. Obviously, a close second has to be the 1987 Rose Bowl against Michigan Wolverines. I was there for both bowl games. In the 1997 Rose Bowl, The Sun Devils were 90 seconds away from winning by far the biggest game of their history, but we all know what happened. I was also too. GO DEVILS WIN THIS PEACH BOWL. Will be there too if all possible.

[@JustinSmith81]

Leavitt = Plummer is spot on. There was a play in the B12 championship that Leavitt had a scramble to the goal line and I was having Plummer flashbacks. Had he dove thst into the endzone I'd have had legit dejavu.

[@mrarizonamtb]

IMO the Big 12 Championship was a top 5 win. Winning the Peach Bowl would be amazing.

[@GI-kn1hb]

1975 Fiesta Bowl. Beating the powerful Nebraska!

[@PeterHovis]

Beating USC in 1978 is on my list…as well as beating BYU in 1977…Matt - you rock

[@MOCskoden]

In the 21st century yes… especially beating a possible Texas/Clemson team in Dillingham’s early coaching career…

[@gregjross852]

It would be the biggest win in ASU history and it would set up one of the best stories in the CFB playoff (outside of a Skatt vs Jeanty battle which likely won’t happen) Dilly Vs Lanning? A former pac12 battle? Sign me up

We won the Rose Bowl, why do people forget beating Harbaugh🤣

[@PeterHovis]

Cam - the next John Riggins…Frank Kush would be very proud of this 2024 Sun Devil team…

[@elche1976]

Matt, now if you could do something about your employer, espn, with them messing up and switching logos and names for the team down south with us. Been happening for years. Are you being pranked or are coworkers just incompetent? They are supposed to know this stuff, being focused on sports, right?

[@communitygroup8561]

ASU is the real deal and legit top 4 in nation. A running back no one can tackle, a QB who is future NFL player who is on fire with a chip on his shoulder, quality 20:28 receivers who fill the Tyson void, a coach and players who play balls up to win and aren’t afraid to fail, and a defense that is super aggressive. Take the school names off the jerseys and decide based on how the teams have played the last 6 weeks. Don’t buy into media echo chamber. And Ewers and the horns find ways to lose big games. The portal has ended the reign of the blue bloods. ASU should be the favorite. ASU wins by 10.

[@stuartdollar9912]

"Would a Peach Bowl win be the biggest in ASU history?" No, it would not. The biggest win in ASU History was the 12-0 Season in 1975, completed with a win over Nebraska 17-14 in the Fiesta Bown, finishing as the only unbeaten team in the country, winning at least one poll as National Champion. The second biggest win was the 1986 Pac-10 title, Rose Bowl win over Michigan, finishing 10-2, and #4 ranked. Making it to the national title game would be the biggest win in program history. This wouldn't even be the first Peach Bowl win (ASU won the Peach Bowl in 1970, finishing with again, a share of the national title, again finishing unbeaten.

[@uncletido99]

Im only 28 and actually shed a tear watching us hoist the big 12 trophy. I dont count 2007 since we lost to USC, whom we shared the co championship with. Skattebo has been better than Rashaad White, DJ Foster, Cameron Marshall, Kerry Taylor, i could go on and on with our great RB's but Cam is somehow levels above them all.

[@ecosystems]

Didn't notice your error in the title? How difficult is it to fix?

[@Doddreal3429]

Go Devils from Indianapolis

[@Cooky-q5d]

A Skattebo snub??? LMAO

[@jimanders9971]

Dont be stupid, the year ASU went undefeated the Devils beat Nebraska in the Fiesta Bowl was the biggest. They should have been national champs but the idiot voters back east had there usual eastern bias.

[@gregnelson1330]

They would have to win the Championship to top Kush's win over Nebraska! #2, sure!

[@lpslover8627]

I'm an Ohio State fan and I hope Arizona State torches Texas. Not because I think they would be an easier opponent, but because I abhor the SEC.

[@rawn4203]

Yes, since they choked away the 1997 rose bowl.
