ASU running back Kalen Ballage hurdles Utah defensive back

Don’t want to end up on a Vine (R.I.P., Vine)?

Don’t try to make a low tackle against Arizona State.

Once again, the Sun Devils leapt off the TV screen and into social media lore when Kalen Ballage took a first-quarter, quick-hit pass and hurdled Utah defensive back Dominique Hatfield.The 9-yard gain followed a Sun Devil fumble recovery on the first play from scrimmage, but ASU quarterback Manny Wilkins ended the possession by throwing an interception in the end zone.

Wilkins had previously set the bar for high-quality hurdles this year.

That said, actual hurdler LoLo Jones wasn’t impressed.

Wonder what she thought of Ballage’s move.

Here is another look from the front.
