Halftime Report: Wisconsin Somehow Leads ASU 13-10 At The Half

What is going on in Madison?

ASU outplayed Wisconsin in nearly every facet of the first half: The Sun Devils are faster, can throw the ball more efficiently, and are clearly skilled at returning kickoffs.

Despite all of that, the Badgers have a 13-10 lead at the half on the strength of two field goals and one touchdown. Scott Tolzien has been quietly effective, completing 13/18 passes for 170 yards.

The running game of ASU has been strong, with Deantre Lewis picking up 54 yards on two touches, with Cameron Marshall grabbing 25 additional yards.

In the end, the Sun Devils have been unable to put points on the scoreboard: Thomas Weber missed a gimme field goal in the first quarter, and other opportunities (dropped passes, missed throws) have caused Wisconsin to go into the half with a lead.

ASU needs to continue to execute, and they will win this game. The question is, can they play at the same level that they did in the first half?

I hope the offense can keep wearing out the Wisconsin defense.

Also, Jake Locker: 2 of 10 for 20 yards and a Pick against Nebraska.

This guy was supposed to be a Heisman Candidate?

I can't stand fair-weather/bandwagon fans, stick with your team, throughout the good and the bad. And don't switch to whichever team wins the Super Bowl each year.

So many missed chances today

On the last drive there was a 30 yard run, but the guy fell down, and if he could have kept going it would have been a 98 yard run.

i think its safe to say we need our offense to score a touchdown, between missed opportunities and the refs they have yet to stick it in on their own

Wisconsin would be better off kicking and punting out of bounds.

its obvious who was the better team today

by AzVikeFan on Sep 18, 2010 3:45 PM MST reply actions  

ASU is the unluckiest team in College Football

A blocked extra point, dropped TD pass, missed PI call, being tackled one yard short on the kickoff return, falling down on a run that looked like it would have gone the distance, poorly timed penalties.

This was like the freaking Georgia game last year. Didn’t ASU lose 4 games by a combined total of 15 points last year too?
