Arizona State opens preseason camp Wednesday.
Let's look at the Sun Devils' defense:
SNAPSHOT
ASU returns nine starters from a team that last season gave up 27.9 points (sixth in the Pac-12), 417.1 yards (seventh) and 5.6 yards per play (seventh). The Sun Devils again pressured as well as anyone, finishing 12th nationally in sacks and ninth in tackles for loss per game. Under coach Todd Graham, ASU has placed in the top 20 in both categories the last three years. Only issue: It has left the Sun Devils vulnerable to big plays.
