Arizona State reeling after consecutive ugly defeats
Associated PressThe AP Top 25 college football poll is back every week throughout the season! Plummer and crew were back in Tempe on Saturday to celebrate the 25th anniversary of Arizona State’s last Rose Bowl appearance. The performance against Washington State that followed was a sign that the Sun Devils don’t seem to be any closer to ending the drought under coach Herm Edwards than they were with any other coach since Bill Snyder in 1996. Arizona State won seven games and went to the Las Vegas Bowl in Edwards’ first season, backed that up with an eight-win season in 2019 and a win in the Sun Bowl. The Sun Devils led Utah 21-7 at halftime, then bumbled through a listless second half at Rice-Eccles Stadium, watching as the Utes scored 28 straight points for a 35-21 win.
