Arizona State quarterback Taylor Kelly broke a bone in his right foot Saturday night and is expected to miss at least a month, multiple sources have told Arizona Sports’ Paul Calvisi. Kelly landed awkwardly while being tackled after a rushing attempt late in the third quarter in the Sun Devils’ 38-24 win over the Colorado […]
For three quarters of the teams in the Pac-12, a quarter of their regular season is in the books. Week 3 answered some questions, no doubt. And a couple of teams in the South may have seen their conference championship hopes dashed by injuries. In Arlington, UCLA quarterback Brett Hundley injured his left arm in […]
While the mood was somewhat of a somber one at Folsom Field Saturday night, the Arizona State Sun Devils still managed to leave Boulder, Colo. with a 38-24 victory over the Colorado Buffaloes to open up Pac-12 play. Led by 195 yards passing and three touchdowns from quarterback Taylor Kelly, who left with a right […]
Who would have thought we’d have so much to learn from a 22-year-old and soon to be lawyer? In a day and age where every college kid swears they’re headed to professional sports, Mike Bercovici was only focused on two things: being a Sun Devil student and being a football player. When it doesn’t go […]
The game, a win, took a backseat to the news, an injury to Taylor Kelly. The Arizona State Sun Devils starting quarterback suffered a right foot injury late in the third quarter of his team’s 38-24 victory at Colorado. After exiting to the locker room, Kelly returned on crutches with his foot in a boot […]
As for as road Pac-12 openers go, they don’t get much easier than the one Arizona State encountered Saturday night in Boulder. Facing a Colorado program that has only four conference wins since joining the Pac-12 back in 2012, the Sun Devils did exactly what they were supposed to do: turn a golden opportunity on […]
Just three games into their season, the Arizona State Sun Devils might already have a significant injury to contend with. Senior quarterback Taylor Kelly, who threw for 195 yards and three touchdowns in Saturday’s 38-24 victory, landed awkwardly on a four-yard run late in third quarter after being taken down by Colorado defensive lineman Josh […]
The Colorado Buffaloes are 4-23 in conference games since joining the Pac-12 in 2011. Furthermore, they’ve never beaten the Arizona State Sun Devils in five meetings on the gridiron. Those are two trends Mike MacIntyre’s team would like to reverse when the 14th-ranked Devils visit Folsom Field in Boulder Saturday. The teams first played back […]
TEMPE, Ariz. – Five times Arizona State has played Colorado on the football field. Five times Arizona State has beaten Colorado. In fact, looking at those previous matchups, the Sun Devils have outscored the Buffaloes, 206-61, including a 54-13 route in Tempe last season. One-sided? Absolutely, but don’t tell that to ASU head coach Todd […]
Before he was named the vice president of university athletics at Arizona State University last January, Ray Anderson served as the vice president of football operations for the National Football League. Which is to say, he worked very closely with NFL commissioner Roger Goodell. Goodell is under major scrutiny for the way the league has […]
TEMPE, Ariz. — He knows he can’t do it alone, so Arizona State running back D.J. Foster refuses to accept all of the credit. Sure, he’s coming off the best individual performance of his three-year Sun Devil career. Rushing for 216 yards in Saturday’s 58-23 win at New Mexico elevated him to third nationally in […]
While it looked tenuous at times, the Arizona State Sun Devils were able to right the ship and handily beat the New Mexico Lobos 58-23 last Saturday in Albuquerque. As a result, Todd Graham’s team has moved up in both polls following Week 2. The Sun Devils climbed one spot in the AP Poll to […]
Week 2 is in the books in the Pac-12, and we’re starting to get a little clearer picture on some teams. Oregon is one of them. The third-ranked Ducks went into the locker room at Autzen Stadium trailing seventh-ranked Michigan State 24-18. We don’t know what head coach Mark Helfrich said to his team at […]
Exposed! Usually that word is a terrible word in sports. It means you’re not good. It means everyone’s opinion of you, including your own, is completely exaggerated. Arizona State was exposed against New Mexico but it wasn’t for any of the reasons the word normally conjures. It was great that ASU was exposed, because it […]
About that New Mexico triple-option offense…. Yeah, Arizona State would like to introduce you to the single-option offense. They call it D.J. Foster. The junior running back rushed for a career-high 216 yards and a touchdown to help the Sun Devils win at New Mexico, 58-23. With the victory, No. 17 ASU improved to 2-0. […]
Playing without starting quarterback Cole Gautsche, running back Carlos Wiggins and kick returner Dameon Gambin Saturday, the New Mexico Lobos looked every bit the part of the overmatched host against the visiting Arizona State Sun Devils. Backed by D.J. Foster’s career day, four first half rushing touchdowns from Deantre Lewis, Kalen Ballage and Taylor Kelly, […]
Point guard Jahii Carson helped lead Arizona State to its first NCAA tournament berth since 2009, and he later signed with the Houston Rockets as an undrafted free agent.
TEMPE, Ariz. — Two started. Six played. Eight are listed on the depth chart. And that was just the defense in Week 1. Add in the offense, and as many as a dozen true freshmen may be called upon to contribute to the Arizona State Sun Devils in 2014. Too many? Who’s to say? Call […]
The contract, which still needs to be approved by the Arizona Board of Regents, would extend the coach's contract to the 2018-19 season, as well as give him a raise.
Sources have told ASUDevils.com that Arizona State men’s basketball coach Herb Sendek has inked a contract extension with the university. According to the report, the extension is pending approval from the Arizona Board of Regents. The contract, which would extend Sendek through the 2018-19 season according to the site, would also give the 51-year-old a […]
Marion Grice, a former Arizona State running back who went sixth-round in the 2014 NFL draft, survived Saturday’s deadline of final cuts as a member of the San Diego Chargers. While it looked like ASU’s leading rusher from last season was gearing up to play in his first NFL regular season game, it looks like […]
Week 1 is in the books in the Pac-12. Every team in the conference was in action against a non-conference foe, in really what was a lackluster week of scheduling to be quite honest. Only three schools — UCLA, Washington State and Cal — had games against Power 5 conference institutions. In all, Pac-12 teams […]
Deadline Saturday came and went in the National Football League, and unfortunately very few local products survived their respective team’s final cuts. Only five players from Arizona State’s Pac-12 South championship team made a 53-man roster Saturday: LB Carl Bradford (Packers), DT Will Sutton (Bears), RB Marion Grice (Chargers), FS Robert Nelson (Browns) and DL […]
TEMPE, Ariz. — What can you say? The 2014 season opener went pretty much according to plan for the 19th-ranked Arizona State Sun Devils. Translation: ASU’s “Big Three” of quarterback Taylor Kelly, running back D.J. Foster and wide receiver Jaelen Strong were dominant. Kelly threw for 238 yards and a touchdown, Foster rumbled for a […]
For the third consecutive year, Todd Graham and the Arizona State Sun Devils opened their regular season against an FCS opponent Thursday. And for the third consecutive year, the reigning Pac-12 South champions greeted their overmatched visitor with a one-sided rout. Taylor Kelly threw for 238 yards and a score, Jaelen Strong caught 10 passes […]
The fourth game of the preseason schedule is nothing more than a glorified tune-up for all 32 NFL teams. Starters rarely play. Game plans are kept simple. And more or less, it’s a time for young products and unproven talents to compete for a chance to make their respective team’s 53-man roster. Former Arizona State […]
Final Score: Arizona State 45, Weber State 14. :41 left in the 4th quarter – Weber State burns a timeout with a few ticks on the clock and one fan in the stands voiced his disapproval by booing loudly. And since he’s one of the few left, it was picked up pretty clearly by the […]
“We should beat this team.” “I don’t like playing in these games because you can’t win for losing.” “I expect us to go out there and dominate.” These are not the normal comments from a college head football coach. We’ve learned over the last two and a half years that coach Todd Graham is not […]
Brooklyn Nets head coach Lionel Hollins was honored to have his jersey retired by Arizona State University, he told Doug and Wolf Wednesday on Arizona Sports 98.7 FM. Hollins’ jersey, along with Bryon Scott’s, was retired by the ASU men’s basketball team at Wells Fargo Arena in February 2011. “It’s a great honor,” Hollins said. […]
They say there’s no such thing as an exhibition game in college football, but with no disrespect meant toward the Weber State Wildcats, Thursday’s season opener is as close as you can get to one for the Arizona State Sun Devils. Year three of the Todd Graham era gets underway in Tempe with a visit […]
