First half observations:
1st Quarter
- ASU rocking the classy Maroon and Gold jerseys
- WSU wide receiver Bobby Ratliff one hand snag should be an ESPN top ten play
- Sun Devils run defense comes out strong
- Muffed punt by the Cougars after opening possession, setting the Devils up inside the 5-yard line
- ASU red zone offense continues to struggle
- Jon Mora 21 yard field goal is good (ASU 3-0)
- Cougar returner Marcus Mason is a bonehead, failing to let a kick dribble out of bounds
- Will Sutton appears 100 percent, consistently clogging the middle
- Jeff Tuel and company failing to move the ball, -20 yards through 2 possessions
- Taylor Kelly overshooting WR's early, including a would be touchdown pass to Rashad Ross
- D.J. Foster getting lots of opportunities early after limited chances in prior weeks
- Taylor Kelly touchdown 15 yard pass to Rashad Ross, Kelly-to-Marshall on the 2 point conversion (ASU 11-0)
- Tuel finding sole success via quick passing attack
- Josh Hubner boots a 52 yard punt, validating his candidacy for the Ray Guy award
- Efficient Sun Devil 6 play 47 yard drive capped of by Taylor Kelly's 18 yard touchdown pass to a wide open Chris Coyle. (18-0)
- Jeff Tuel's interception to senior Keelan Johnson may have been one of the worst passes I've ever witnessed.
- ASU dominating every aspect of the game at the end of 1st quarter action, game is practically over already.
2nd Quarter
- Cameron Marshall got 2 carries to gain four yards but failed, turnover on downs
- Jamal Miles 14 yard return almost turned into a De'Anthony Thomas esk touchdown against Colorado
- Breaking news, Josh Hubner is ASU's best player, punt travels 54 yards pinning WASU at the 2 yard line
- Connor Holliday checks in for Mike Leach, possibly a smart decision after last year's 500 plus yard game
- WASU offense averaging an embarrassing 2.2 yards per play, accumulating only 4 first downs
- Kelly's 21 yard pass to Ross is easily one of his best throws all seasons, solid velocity
- Kelly 17 yard touchdown pass to Marion Grice. No exaggeration Grice jukes at least 3 defenders, nasty moves. (ASU 25-0)
- Marion Grice's 8th TD reception leads the nation for all running backs
- ASU defense displaying early season form, plethora of pressure
- Keelan Johnson having a standout senior day, 2nd interception, although both passes were basically right to him
- First play after turnover, Michael Eubank 29 yard touchdown pass to Chris Coyle (ASU 32-0)
- Despite the discrepancy in score, Todd Graham will be furious with Jaxon Hood's unnecessary roughness penalty
- ASU dominating 32-0 at half
