A field goal with 55 seconds to go was enough to give ASU a 23-20 away win (their second away win in a row) against Washington State. I missed most of the game due to family commitments but what I saw wasn’t terribly impressive. Still, an away win is good, especially since we haven't had two in a row since 1996. ASU go to 6-0, WSU to 2-4. Next week is Washington (2-3, 0-2) at home.
Oh, and WSU coach Doba’s "second or third best team in the conference" (Arizona) got beat 31-16 by Oregon State.

ASU hadn’t won in Stanford since 1997.
Nine of the top-25 teams lost over the weekend.
Colorado - whom ASU beat - went and won against #3 Oklahoma.
The Cal/Oregon game was a good one. Cal should rise through the…
Apparently Bill Doba, Washington State University football coach, is - how shall we say - "challenged." The Cougars just got whupped 48-20 by University of Arizona (unranked, 2-3) and Doba is quoted in the Tacoma News Tribune as saying:
"Arizona, I said, is the second or third best team in the…
On a Saturday in which #1 LSU lost, #2 Cal lost to Oregon State, and USC barely squeezed past Arizona, ASU beat Washington 44-20 after trailing 17-13 at the half- a dominant performance in the second half that nicely illustrated Dennis Erickson’s ability as a coach, particularly considering our top…
Of course, WSU is a mediocre team, beaten 42-21 by a mediocre Wisconsin team (GO badgers)that lost to Illinois. Uhmm, maybe the Pac-10 is not on an up year.
