Another conference road game, another loss for the Arizona State Sun Devils. Todd Graham’s team was pushed around for much of Saturday’s contest in Boulder, which led to a night of hot takes on Twitter.
To recap the defeat through the eyes of social media, we compiled the best tweets throughout the game to show you how Twitter reacted to the bad loss.
Look good, play...bad?

There weren’t many positives, but an early (ish) kickoff was a plus.
An Arizona State football game is about to start before the sun has even gone down.

That's a win in itself, folks.
The offense, and return team, was not sharp early.

The defense struggled early and often.
Arizona State's fifth-ranked rush defense is no longer ranked fifth. 16-yard touchdown run puts Colorado on top 7-0.

With 9:11 left the 2Q, Liufau 9/9 against the ASU secondary

#ASU has had 5 drives, none for more than 6 plays, 3 min. Colorado has had 4 (excluding fumble), two drives <5 plays; one was last TD drive.

Lol but I thought we had the best rushing defense in the conference! https://t.co/Mwo04DeyIu

But Zane Gonzalez did Zane Gonzalez-like things.
The words extra point and Zane Gonzalez might as well be synonymous.

Matt Haack also enjoyed the trip to elevation.
Matt Haack and his 76-yard punts laugh when you try and get points before the half ends.

Colorado may be winning on the scoreboard, but Matt Haack is winning in our hearts.

But the rest of the team brought frustration and sadness.
The Colorado defense is playing like one of their roommates' just stole a mattress.

The game eventually came to a merciful end, and the sun rose on Sunday morning.
FINAL;

Sun Devils fall on the road to Colorado, 40-16.
For whatever reason, ASU cannot play a quality opponent on the road. O-Line needs to play better, making holes for RBs & giving time for QBs https://t.co/tFMI0QlMR1

The Colorado Buffaloes are 5-2 (3-1 Pac12). They bullied ASU 580-199 in total yds. @RunRalphieRun ran over team that'd owned them for yrs

Woke up to a 5-2 record and saw that ua is 2-5 with no conference win. The sky isn't falling.
