Welcome back, Sun Devil faithful.

I would be remiss if I failed to mention the fantastic game that occurred on Thursday night. Oregon looked over matched, but the Boise St. Broncos are a pleasure to watch, and could be a sleeper for the BCS if Oregon can pull together a strong season. That whole LeGarrette Blount situation, while certainly a huge problem for the Ducks and for the Pac-10, was a rather significant moment in sports history, much like the brawl at the palace.

Anyway, the Sun Devils are back, and they have a cupcake game to play.

Vontaze Burfict, the man himself, will be on the field tonight, as he was cleared by the NCAA just yesterday.

Check out our Idaho State preview here, and read the Idaho St. team preview by Crimson and Cream Machine, SBNation's Alabama blog, here. Let us commemorate the start of the 2009 season by having a great game thread. Go Devils!
