ASU's Carpenter uncertain for USC

Rudy Carpenter attended Arizona State's practice Tuesday night, but his role was reduced. The senior quarterback, wearing red athletic shorts and a protective boot on his left foot, stood beside coach Dennis Erickson and watched the first-team offense runs plays. Carpenter, the Pac-10's most durable quarterback, has made 36 consecutive starts, but an ankle injury suffered last week against California has placed that streak in jeopardy. For now, Carpenter is questionable. Erickson would like to have him practice Thursday, just to shake off the rust. But he's not against letting Carpenter play even if he doesn't practice. The way Erickson sees it, if Carpenter is fully recovered, "it'd be dumb not to play him."

Another over-rated ASU team.... Led by another hyped up QB who can't really hack it.... Take another 6-4 record... And look forward to next year

Like it matters. USC is going to crush ASU down to the ground. They still have some of the hottest girls at their university from personal experience.

ASU does have the hottest girls. Rudy kinda seems like a **** to me, people say hes so tough, but then why does he grimace and cry when he gets leveled?

The real question is "will USC win by 4 or 5 TD's"...I would like to see the impressive trim supporting both teams in this game.
