Junior Onyeali suspended for ASU bowl game

The Arizona State Sun Devils will be without the services of
sophomore defensive end Junior Onyeali for the MAACO Bowl
Las Vegas against 6th-ranked Boise State on Thursday night.

Onyeali has been suspended for the game by head coach Dennis
Erickson after a shouting match between the two at Monday’s
practice before the Sun Devils departed for Las Vegas.

Onyeali played in only eight games this season because of a
knee injury suffered in a loss to Illinois. He had only 11
total tackles this season, and his sack total fell to just
one after registering 6 in 2010 when he was the Pac-10
Defensive Freshman of the Year.
