A lot of talent isn’t there anymore. Lots of injuries at critical positions. This happens every November when injuries mount and our lack of depth shows up. It’s getting better though. Last year our depth really sucked. Hopefully it will get better going forward.
ASU fan here and i can confirm that anything goes in this rivalry game...and nothing would make UA happier then to be the ones that bounce us from the championship game.
That analysis of ASU and Arizona was god awful lol. Left out some of the most important elements to discuss. This kid just doesn't like ASU making his preseason prediction look bad.
Boise State is good and they should have a chance in the CFP. But it should be the SEC giving up one of their seats to make it happen - not the Big XII.
Drake, did you just say you are 23 yrs old? You then had me fooled as you lead a show, speak perfectly, provide creative content, provide excitement as a seasoned professional! Excellent work sir as you are light years ahead of many folks twice your age! You are killing it on this show and I am glad i found this channel to follow the big 12 sports! You and the team are well above ESPN and other garbage networks content. 👏👏👏👏
@@cooliopacholio yeah that has been pretty apparent I'd say. Has made me wonder exactly why? Perhaps he thinks it's the only one that will be justified to be let into the playoffs therefore will have a big 12 represent? All I know is if you're going to be the spokesperson for all the big 12, got to try not to be biased. But I believe your assessment is correct. BYU bias for sure.
@@b_rodskin4834 it's all about eyeballs BYU and CU have a brand. If they can pull something off people will watch. I have no reason to think ASU will not win and as an Iowa state fan that is the scariest matchup for the ccg.
Drake how dumb can you be here? It’ll be Arizona State vs Iowa state or BYU. I know you don’t like ASU being in the big 12 championship but the reality is they will be.
After watching your show consistently this year a few things are obvious…. -You don’t respect ASU’s team (you picked ASU to come in last place, you picked BYU over ASU last week, you’re picking U of A over ASU, etc.) - You think BYU is way better than they actually are. They should have 3-4 losses tbh. Just call it how it actually is bud and not how you want it to be!
We get that. Utah has played teams close and byu had been skating by. Little different. Unless Arizona suddenly learned how to stop the run and not get blown out this week.
embrace ASU. The best story in college football this year by a long shot. Them winning out and doing well in the CFP is YOUR and OURS best interest for the BIG12 to show this whole CFP up. You continue to discredit them as you have all season.
There’s no way Arizona beats ASU. What would really be funny is oSu defeating Colorado. Would be nice for Gundy &Co to end the year with a W. What a rough season they’ve had. 😕
BYU fan here I completely agree with moving on with the “love and learn” kalani sitake mentality. I’m a byu fan mainly because of the legacy, I highly doubt lavell Edward’s would come out during half time with the national championship on the line and say something a long the lines of “we are all children of god” wrong. The legacy of lavell Edward’s is defeating the opponent with respect but also respecting yourself.
BYU fan here. There is no way Arizona State is going to lose. I can see Iowa State possibly losing but I still doubt it. It’s going to be a AZ State and ISU BIG 12 championship game.
This is why you have to watch football games and not rely solely on analytics... because if you had watched any ASU football this year you would have seen a clutch AF defensive unit who beat the best offensive teams in a new conference. Yes it's a rivalry game...of course anything can happen...no UA is not going to beat ASU. You should worry about your teams best player being suspended for violating the "honor code" and not our "punch you in the mouth" defense that's gonna bring ASU a BIG12 Championship.
Arizona State Defense is pretty good it's just that every time they get a lead in a game coach Dillingham starts playing not to lose and he starts playing with a soft defense and it's kind of misleading they actually pretty good it's just that they start playing a prevent defense no big plays keep everything in front of you instead of continuing to play aggressive
And in the BYU game Arizona state with just a couple of ways from blowing them completely out and if it wasn't for Coach Dillingham playing a soft defense them comebacks would not be happening it takes the momentum away from the team when he starts playing soft
Very bizarre to purposely leave out ASU's best offensive player when you compare them to Arizona... That whole analysis has to be nothing but rage bait. We won't burst your bubble by pointing out turnover margin or a million other comparisons that advantage ASU.
KSU has only come to Ames and won as an underdog 3 times in the last 100 years and 1 time in the last 25 years. There is zero chance of Iowa State overlooking KSU. ASU vs ISU in Arlington may not be what people want, but it is going to happen.
It's not what Drake wants. ASU the last two weeks has run over KS and BYU that are not remotely as bad as Arizona. Leavitt is ranked in the top 3 QB's in the Big 12? Nationally by PFF better, like top ten. Fifita does not have the line and quality of WR's or TE he had under Fisch. U of A's NFL tackle, Jonah Savaiinaea, is questionable for Saturday.
@roytate3889 Looking forward to playing you guys in Arlington. And, welcome to the club of scrappy State schools in the B12. (KSU, OSU, ISU and now ASU) You guys are going to fit in well here.
I know the Locked On Big XII channel puts its focus on football and mens's basketball. Its what the audience want - after all those are the big money sports. However, BYU (and thus the Big 12) won two Team National Championships last Saturday, in both men's and women's cross country. I think Iowa State was a runner up. Winning NCAA Championships - in any sport - is good for the conference overall.
Drake. On BYU. BYU has a different culture than other schools right now. A culture that Kalani has taken enormous effort to build. He isn't always at the front making speeches or policing discipline. He has built a culture of players who captain their own position groups and team. These guys are 18-24 years old. Kalani hasn't played a game of football in nearly 25 years. These players are playing together. A senior like Tyler Batty saying we gotta play better and be ourselves is going to mean more than what any coach is going to say. Great teams like the Patriots, Kansas City Chiefs, New Zealand All Blacks have and have had phenomenal coaches but they let the players lead the team. They have seen some of the greatest success of any professional sports organizations because players who give these half time speeches. Read the book "Legacy" and you will understand and see why Kalani coaches the way he does. Its why BYU is winning this year with less talent than teams like Colorado, ASU, and Kansas State.
Apparently, at least one fan became physical with a BYU staff member who reacted before being restrained and escorted to the locker room by a fellow staffer. That's also being looked into by XII.
UCF at ASU 378k views BYU at UCF 1.24 million views. ASU struggles to fill out a 53,000 capacity stadium while BYU constantly fills a 63,000 capacity stadium. BYU has a lot more people watching them than you think.
BYU has a bigger fan base that tunes in. I'm an asu guy and I admit that. If asu is a winner there is a big alumni base to draw from but BYU has BYU, byui, BYU Hawaii and a whole world wide church to draw from. It's just different.
It’s disrespectful that they are even considering a Mountain West Conference team as the #4 seed…The Big 12 is tougher than the Mountain West and ACC 💯
The only reason BYU hasn't gotten rid of football is that it's a way for them to reach out to others and share the light of christ with others and they want to show it on and off the field. I do agree that they need a little more fire in the locker room and behind the scenes
Constantly overlooking or actually dismissing ASU has been a constant theme with you all season long, with token praise forced by reality. You cannot will the finish you want? Are you going to continue the tradition of being wrong about the Sun Devils? 13th in run defense in the Big 12 VS. SKattebo? You are going to live and die on this hill. Tyson was for the last 6 games one of the highest rated WR by PFF IN THE NATION! He is not invisable. It's basically FIfita and T-MAC. Fifita is the better QB while Leavitt is rated higher? On what metrics?
In total offense Leavitt is at 250.9 ypg and Fifita is 259 ypg, a whopping 8 yards difference. Leavitt has one more touchdown and less than half the interceptions. Leavitt also played in one less game, missing Cincy due to injury. Fifita is good as a pure passer, but Leavitt is better as a QB and it's not even close. Drake was dead wrong on that one.
It will be an ASU - BYU rematch in the Big12 Championship game, and a BSU - UNLV rematch in the MWC Championship game. If ASU and UNLV both win, then the Big12 will get a 1st Round bye. That's the only way that happens.
I like Colorado but I am not rooting for any teams to lose for them to get in because it's just a game. However I believe Arizona will beat ASU in state rivalry and Kansas state should beat Iowa State because of the running Quarterback
The odds of both ASU losing and ISU losing are only about 30%. That makes it tough for Colorado to get in but that’s mainly because the analytics gives ASU a very high chance to win. You make a good point Drake about this being a rivalry game where history often goes out the window. BYU does have about a coin flip chance to get into the championship, but BYU hasn’t exactly been lucky lately. Who knows? It’s anyone’s guess at this point.
I was at the asu BYU game. I loved the passion from the BYU fans. I loved the spice from the asu fans. I expected what I got from both and it was fun and awesome. A rematch in the big 12 title game would cement this new rivalry game and Im rooting for that to happen.
BYU will know if they CAN make it, by the time they play. if ISU and ASU win, they are both in, and BYU is out. If that happens, BYU may well lose to Houston. Heck, Oklahoma State nearly beat BYU in Provo at night. Winning with 12 seconds on the clock. This is a vulnerable BYU team. They were losing to Utah with 3 seconds on the clock, etc. And have now lost 2 in a row.
I don't know why you want to see Colorado in the championship game so bad 31 player away from losing the balance which make would make them for lost team and even if they did get into the playoffs they're not going to beat anybody
Hating your opponent has no place in sports. I don't care if it helps you win the game. If you think winning the game is more important than loving everyone, or if you think hate makes sports more entertaining, you need to change your perspective. Love is good and hate is bad. Period.
I think you’re both right and wrong about BYU Drake. Every November about this time when injuries mount and our lack of depth is exposed BYU fans generally start going after the coaches. The Kilani-is-too-nice motif rears its ugly head, and no one is spared criticism. Unfortunately it’s almost always misapplied. Kilani makes a lot of mistakes that drive me nuts. I’m convinced his clock management is the worst in D1 football, and it’s persevered now for a decade. His use of his gut, as opposed to analytics, to decide when to go on 4th down also drives me nuts. But I still love Kilani. He is an absolute gift to BYU. It’s not easy to have the culture BYU has with so many non-LDS fans in the mix. I love his “loving and learning” slogan and the fact that he handles the diversity with class. He is a player’s coach and the players absolutely love him, and this is a necessity at BYU. I’m not LDS but I AM a big fan of Kilani’s values. When he talked about loving Utah, that was after the game. He’s capable of getting his team riled up. The audio of him screaming, “they don’t know but they ‘bout to find out” at the top of his lungs is proof enough for me. But his humanity is what makes him both a great coach and a great human being. I don’t know how much you can put on BYU for coming out not ready to play. They have had a lot of injuries but I do think the sheer physicality of ASU completely took them by surprise, and it shouldn’t have. After watching the first half I was convinced ASU’s lines were just too dominant and BYU had no chance. They showed it mostly just came down to technique though in the second half. So I definitely think you have a point about the coaches not preparing the players well enough.
It's honestly embarrasing much you disrespect ASU and refuse to talk about their achievements. 9-2 after being picked last by everyone including you; talk about how what an immense achievenent that is. It's truly the best story in college football this year. You refuse to acknowledge that ASU has a damn good football team pin it all on a BYU collapse.
2 teams from the Big 12 in the CFP LOL 😂. Can’t wait to watch the video following selection day which will include the one (required) Big 12 in the 12th seed. Love watching a good Drake meltdown which you can count on at least once a month. 🤡
And I don't know if you watch the Kansas State Arizona State game but Arizona state was really just a couple of plays away from blowing Kansas State out on their home field
Drake, love ya dude! U the man! Your analytics are THE best on media. You're analysis is right on. I'm iffy about you calling AZ rivalry game over ASU. Cats defense stop Scattabo? I'm pulling for Cats for my school, BYU, alum '02.
Anyone who wants any level of decorum at a college football game in 2024 is a fool. I graduated from Kansas State in 2001 and I remember when the student section at CU got in serious trouble bc they were throwing ziplock bags of 💩… AT THEIR OWN TEAM!!! Nothing has gotten better since (especially with CU fans) and as long as there’s no physical violence property damage, I don’t care what these kids do. ASUfan deserves a chance to revel in their glory. Hell, if I was in Tempe, I’d be partying with ASUfan. 🍻
What? The playoff picture is a mess! How can that be in a 16 team conference whose teams only play 9 conference games? Maybe Big 12 should invite Stanford so someone can do the probability math? Then again the last thing Big 12 needs is another team from the West, which has shown the Heartland how weak it is.
all the referees in the big 12 are on notice on Saturday to shake things up to ensure certain teams make it to the big 12 championship game so that the conference stays in the spotlight
Drake has been on the love fest ever since earlier in the season he went to one of their games. Thier fans are getting annoying like Utah's to ASU fans. One poster here threw out another lame conspiracy thing about evil ASU fans.
You are 'bringing vibes to an analytical fight'.😂 Whatever you THINK might be "best" for The Big 12 is what you try in vain to manifest (instead of reality). 10:15 is pretty ironic. Lol.
So let me get this straight… you are choosing to believe a random fan’s opinion on twitter about what goes on in the BYU locker room, over an (illegally) recorded conversation about what’s ACTUALLY happening in the locker room????
Your locks are based on ifs and buts. Sigh. Arizona might come out fired up. It happens. End of the game, that game won't be in doubt. Have you watched either team this year? And you still just think.... the rivalry will help them? Ooooffff.
I see where you are going with this. You think the entire Big 12 should be in the college football play off. Doubtfull that will happen. You should get at least one.
Drake, wrong. And I think you just said it wrong. But if ASU wins, they are in over BYU. They have the head to head. It would then be ASU v. BYU because BYU is in over Colorado. ASU has to lose if you want Colorado v. BYU.
Colorado barely beat North Dakota State, Texas Tech squeaked by Abilene Christian, Kansas State had to fight to beat Tulane, Arizona State needed a late field goal to beat and Kansas actually lost to UNLV, but you're still pretending Boise State is somehow on a lower level than Big 12 teams just because they aren't winning every game by 30? Also, Ashton Jeanty isn't just a running back everyone was talking about at the beginning of the season. He's leading the nation in rushing by about 600 yards, would be the starting running back for every team in the Big 12, and will be in New York City in December. Ranting about how Boise would lose to the top 8 Big 12 teams or whatever is just silly and honestly makes you look petty.
Dude... you need to start wearing your special helmet on the little yellow bus! Your analogy is crap!! 💩 ASU will be in the championship game, so here the bet - if I am wrong, I will stop listening to your podcast. If you are wrong and ASU does make the championship, then you need to shut down your podcast and find something else to do!?!? Go Ducks!!
BYU is just unlucky. If you watched the Kansas and ASU games closely, BYU missed a lot of chances to put the game away. Just bad mistakes by the QB and wrong playcallings by the OC. Colorado was supposed to walk through Kansas, but Kansas showed up in that game. ISU and K-State are disappointing. I thought K-State was the best team in the conference, even with that loss to BYU.
Dude get off the BYU train they are poo poo the same with Colorado they don't deserve to be in I think Arizona state is by far the best team in the Big 12 and they're not going to make it either lost all respect for you Drake
Cougars need to play a full game not a half game. Talent is there. Go Cougs!
A lot of talent isn’t there anymore. Lots of injuries at critical positions. This happens every November when injuries mount and our lack of depth shows up. It’s getting better though. Last year our depth really sucked. Hopefully it will get better going forward.
Cougs could’ve been in the playoffs.😮
ASU fan here and i can confirm that anything goes in this rivalry game...and nothing would make UA happier then to be the ones that bounce us from the championship game.
NCAA needs Deion and Colorado in CFP
Let's just hope his projection is as bad as it was when he picked ASU to finish last in the conference.

also arizona state has owned arizona for like 5 years… we ain’t losing.
Actually wouldn't be surprised if BYU lost to Houston. Definitely more probable than ASU losing to uofa. That's a revenge game for last year.

I don't know why you want to see Colorado in the championship game so bad 31 player away from losing the balance which make would make them for lost team and even if they did get into the playoffs they're not going to beat anybody
Sun Devils for the win....
Hating your opponent has no place in sports. I don't care if it helps you win the game. If you think winning the game is more important than loving everyone, or if you think hate makes sports more entertaining, you need to change your perspective. Love is good and hate is bad. Period.
Did we forget that if Iowa State wins, they are in the ship?
Also confused here: isn’t Boise State making it in as the G5 team? Or is Notre Dame?
Thanks!
CU will bring in the 👀👀👀👀 numbers. It's about money if all of the teams are 8n a tie at the end.
Lol Boise can totally match up well againts BYU. Plus Arizona st are the ones controlling their destiny
No cu needs Houston to beat byu which will happen
AZ over AZ State is THE WORST take since the beginning of the season. QUICK SMOKING CRACK DUDE. 😂😂😂😂
I think you’re both right and wrong about BYU Drake. Every November about this time when injuries mount and our lack of depth is exposed BYU fans generally start going after the coaches. The Kilani-is-too-nice motif rears its ugly head, and no one is spared criticism. Unfortunately it’s almost always misapplied.
Kilani makes a lot of mistakes that drive me nuts. I’m convinced his clock management is the worst in D1 football, and it’s persevered now for a decade. His use of his gut, as opposed to analytics, to decide when to go on 4th down also drives me nuts. But I still love Kilani. He is an absolute gift to BYU.
It’s not easy to have the culture BYU has with so many non-LDS fans in the mix. I love his “loving and learning” slogan and the fact that he handles the diversity with class. He is a player’s coach and the players absolutely love him, and this is a necessity at BYU.
I’m not LDS but I AM a big fan of Kilani’s values. When he talked about loving Utah, that was after the game. He’s capable of getting his team riled up. The audio of him screaming, “they don’t know but they ‘bout to find out” at the top of his lungs is proof enough for me. But his humanity is what makes him both a great coach and a great human being.
I don’t know how much you can put on BYU for coming out not ready to play. They have had a lot of injuries but I do think the sheer physicality of ASU completely took them by surprise, and it shouldn’t have. After watching the first half I was convinced ASU’s lines were just too dominant and BYU had no chance. They showed it mostly just came down to technique though in the second half. So I definitely think you have a point about the coaches not preparing the players well enough.
It's honestly embarrasing much you disrespect ASU and refuse to talk about their achievements. 9-2 after being picked last by everyone including you; talk about how what an immense achievenent that is. It's truly the best story in college football this year. You refuse to acknowledge that ASU has a damn good football team pin it all on a BYU collapse.
2 teams from the Big 12 in the CFP LOL 😂. Can’t wait to watch the video following selection day which will include the one (required) Big 12 in the 12th seed. Love watching a good Drake meltdown which you can count on at least once a month. 🤡
On your next episode go through the games as schedule and the possibilities until then final game of BYU vs Houston
Drake thanks for picking against ASU again. You been doing it most the year and we keep winning. “What we were guaranteed” gtfoh 🤣
And I don't know if you watch the Kansas State Arizona State game but Arizona state was really just a couple of plays away from blowing Kansas State out on their home field
Drake, love ya dude! U the man! Your analytics are THE best on media. You're analysis is right on. I'm iffy about you calling AZ rivalry game over ASU. Cats defense stop Scattabo? I'm pulling for Cats for my school, BYU, alum '02.
Booo uofa booo!!! Lets geaux Devils!!!
Fxck, it's going to be a fun weekend with all these rivals and implications
Anyone who wants any level of decorum at a college football game in 2024 is a fool. I graduated from Kansas State in 2001 and I remember when the student section at CU got in serious trouble bc they were throwing ziplock bags of 💩… AT THEIR OWN TEAM!!! Nothing has gotten better since (especially with CU fans) and as long as there’s no physical violence property damage, I don’t care what these kids do. ASUfan deserves a chance to revel in their glory. Hell, if I was in Tempe, I’d be partying with ASUfan. 🍻
We beat Wyoming by 20. go Cougs!
We beat Wyoming by 41, go devils!
@brodziew i think that adds to the case: Big 12's top teams are better than Boise.
What? The playoff picture is a mess! How can that be in a 16 team conference whose teams only play 9 conference games? Maybe Big 12 should invite Stanford so someone can do the probability math? Then again the last thing Big 12 needs is another team from the West, which has shown the Heartland how weak it is.
all the referees in the big 12 are on notice on Saturday to shake things up to ensure certain teams make it to the big 12 championship game so that the conference stays in the spotlight
BSU........is good and has a Better Record as well
Like last week against Wyoming, a team ASU totally destroyed?
How is Colorado getting in?
I say ASU vs Iowa State
Way too much would have to occur for Colorado to get In I think it’s basically AsU BYU and KSU losing. Pretty insurmountable odds.
That's what will happen provided they both ×n.
I think BSU is ranked too high, however we can beat any b12 team on the blue.
Notice how the ONLY positive comments on all these videos are from BYU fans…
Drake has been on the love fest ever since earlier in the season he went to one of their games. Thier fans are getting annoying like Utah's to ASU fans. One poster here threw out another lame conspiracy thing about evil ASU fans.
They love their biggest cheerleader, Drake.
Byu and Colorado lost.😂😂😂😂 neither will be in.
You are 'bringing vibes to an analytical fight'.😂 Whatever you THINK might be "best" for The Big 12 is what you try in vain to manifest (instead of reality). 10:15 is pretty ironic. Lol.
So good.
Drake are you going into the game on Saturday?
Kansas state vs. Texas Tech
So let me get this straight… you are choosing to believe a random fan’s opinion on twitter about what goes on in the BYU locker room, over an (illegally) recorded conversation about what’s ACTUALLY happening in the locker room????
Your locks are based on ifs and buts. Sigh. Arizona might come out fired up. It happens. End of the game, that game won't be in doubt. Have you watched either team this year? And you still just think.... the rivalry will help them? Ooooffff.
I don't think Colorado can beat Kansas State or BYU for Arizona State
I believe that TCU is the one that has no path to the title game…so 8 teams left
I wish this were so.
That's the reason BSU have beaten BYU many times more than losses
I see where you are going with this. You think the entire Big 12 should be in the college football play off. Doubtfull that will happen. You should get at least one.
Drake, wrong. And I think you just said it wrong. But if ASU wins, they are in over BYU. They have the head to head. It would then be ASU v. BYU because BYU is in over Colorado. ASU has to lose if you want Colorado v. BYU.
It will be ASU vs ISU.
Colorado barely beat North Dakota State, Texas Tech squeaked by Abilene Christian, Kansas State had to fight to beat Tulane, Arizona State needed a late field goal to beat and Kansas actually lost to UNLV, but you're still pretending Boise State is somehow on a lower level than Big 12 teams just because they aren't winning every game by 30?
Also, Ashton Jeanty isn't just a running back everyone was talking about at the beginning of the season. He's leading the nation in rushing by about 600 yards, would be the starting running back for every team in the Big 12, and will be in New York City in December. Ranting about how Boise would lose to the top 8 Big 12 teams or whatever is just silly and honestly makes you look petty.
Dude... you need to start wearing your special helmet on the little yellow bus! Your analogy is crap!! 💩 ASU will be in the championship game, so here the bet - if I am wrong, I will stop listening to your podcast. If you are wrong and ASU does make the championship, then you need to shut down your podcast and find something else to do!?!? Go Ducks!!
💯 AGREE!
BYU '82
Not going to happen.
BYU is just unlucky. If you watched the Kansas and ASU games closely, BYU missed a lot of chances to put the game away. Just bad mistakes by the QB and wrong playcallings by the OC. Colorado was supposed to walk through Kansas, but Kansas showed up in that game. ISU and K-State are disappointing. I thought K-State was the best team in the conference, even with that loss to BYU.
Go buffs its not over
And last week you were absolutely certain that the Buffs would beat KU. I don't think you're very good at this prediction business.
Dude get off the BYU train they are poo poo the same with Colorado they don't deserve to be in I think Arizona state is by far the best team in the Big 12 and they're not going to make it either lost all respect for you Drake
@@Brinerjp Drake has had too many burritos up where the sun don't shine.
Wow! You guys can’t handle another persons prospective on things if it doesn’t line up to yours!
