Hey they tweeted this out, who are we not to share with you:

We need your opinion on this Thanksgiving ‘treat’ that the ASU athletic department gave to their fans and students, we don’t get it:

Arizona Fans shared these memes with Zona Zealots:

We would be remiss not to show you what ASU fans are tweeting, these will make you want this football to win at all costs, we guarantee it!

When it’s all said and done, Arizona will either be 0-9 in the Pac-12 or 1-8, but that one win could bring solace to the fans and the seniors. The coaches can recruit on a tad upbeat as well, which they will do starting the next day, Rich Rod will be on his way to Phoenix to cheer on his son and future Arizona freshman Rhett Rodriguez in the Arizona Division 4A Championship.
