1) Protection Issues
As stated by Devils in Detail, this was the number 1 key to victory for ASU. Sun Devil quarterback Mike Bercovici was sacked 9 times and hurried all night. Not once did Bercovici truly get to drop back comfortably in the pocket and look for receivers. Aggies defensive end Myles Garrett wreaked havoc on the ASU passing game.
