ASU defensive backs just absolutely could not cover our receivers. Great job by Evan’s & Thompson.
Deciding matchup in this game.

Game would've been over had shapen been more accurate but his last pass makes up it for it
He didn’t hit all of them. But he hit 3 of them. And that was enough.
Even with all his tuck and runs....that went nowhere. 3 good balls.
You have an issue with Shapen. We wouldn't have won without him. He's got 5 tds & nearly 600 yds in 2 games against ASU. No picks
Thompson’s speed is special. Evans less refined but you can tell the potential is there.
Having home run hitters can make up for a lot of deficiencies you may have otherwise. It is hard to sustain lengthy drives when you have an average to below average OL, which we do. More plays often means more opportunities for drive killers (sacks, penalties, turnovers). When you have guys that can get open and score from 50+, it’s a significant equalizer. And it’s not something we have had very often in our history.
