Saturday Night at Sun Devil Stadium

i-4c94fb7d2b3200331f2664ef879510c5-asuhelm[7].jpgI spent Saturday night in Sun Devil Stadium watching ASU beat Oregon State 44-32, to go 4-0 for the season. This after spotting the Beavers 19 points in the first seven minutes and given that OSU had the second-rated run defense in the country. Five interceptions and a lot of big third-down plays (both on offence and defense) helped the Devils.

Next week sees us at Stanford (1-2, 0-2 Pac-10), a game that will be televised by Fox Sports AZ.

ASU are playing #3 USC this evening. The game last year was a classic, although ASU lost 38-28 after leading 21-3 at the half. Here is what I wrote last year. I have my doubts that today's game will be quite as close. Update #1: End of the first half and ASU are down 21-7. Once again, ASU have no…
