Arizona State QB Sends an Astonishing Message to Texas’ Quinn Ewers Before Playoff Game

The Arizona State Sun Devils and Texas Longhorns face off against each other on Wednesday in the second round of the College Football Playoff. This is Arizona’s first game in the newly expanded format, and the second for Texas after beating Clemson 38-14 in the first round. The game will feature a lot of high-level talent, including the quarterbacks of each side, Sam Leavitt for the Sun Devils and Quinn Ewers for Texas. During a press conference on Saturday, Leavitt was asked about the idea of playing Ewers, and his answer was telling. “I’ve watched him for a fair amount of time now,” he said. I’m just excited for the opportunity. People keep counting me out since day one, and I’m gonna go prove why I’m the better quarterback.” Sam Leavitt on facing off against Quinn Ewers: “I’ve watched him for a fair amount of time now.
