Das with a great tackle on another ill-advised KOR by our opponent
Quiet game by Harry and others (Harvey) pick up the slack and we still win
The return of the back shoulder fade
Running game (except Manny) takes the night off and we win
Jefferson going 1-1 vs backup 6'0" safety, doesn't high point, gets 13" vertical and defender easily bats out of his arms (He later makes up for this with a GREAT catch thrown behind him & high for a HUGE 1st down...his only reception of the season)
Sparky picks up 8 and then 7 and forces Cal to call a TO
Manny 21-30 with drops by White (team leading 4th), Ballage(on great fake end around). Manny was 16-20 in 2nd half
Welcome Jay Jay Wilson to the party!! Finally out of the doghouse!
Haack went into game 4th in FBS net punting and IMPROVED on that
Harvey & Kohl with great blocks on Manny's 8 yard TD run
Orr is the real deal. This game will pay huge benefits for him and ASU. I was not sold that he had CB hips and I was wrong. He will vie for All-Pac honors next year
Manny's INT---Allensworth dove and trapped it on the ground without possession. ONCE AGAIN WE FAILED TO CALL DOWN FOR A REVIEW
White with his first blown PuntRetrun of the season when he let it bounce rather than FC and rolled 18 yards
Does anyone feel more comfortable when our opponent has 3rd and 15 vs 2nd and 2????????
Gonzalez' incredible stats were HURT when he was told to pooch to the 15 & it was returned to 36
GREAT blocks by Orr and Smallwoood on Fiso's INT return
Gump with missed INT chance on under thrown ball that went thru his hands and hit his chest
I'm not writing any of these guys off, BUT we have now seen Echols/Rhodes/Gump/Adams, I'm ready to see Robinson starting and Chandler given a shot (especially vs Wazzu)
MANNY 16-20 in the 2nd half
Gump was back to return kicks in Q4 (scary)
We now AVERAGE giving up 404 passing yards per game
With the score 34-34 and 4th and goal at the 6, the camera pans to CTG's face and his eyes roll heavily twice and say, "I remember what trading TDs for FGs does against Cal, please don't let it happen again"
637 total yards-Cal, 454 total yards ASU
3 turnovers to 1 & the KOR TD
Despite meeting our average of 5 penalties/44 yards exactly for the season, it feels like we are being penalized more in 2016 (but we were 4.6/40 yds in 2015)
