ASU Football: Graham emphasizes ball security, containing Booker

Coach Graham spoke on his keys to Saturday's primetime tilt at Utah, including containing Utah's lethal rushing attack and winning the ball possession battle.

Coach Todd Graham opened up his media availability on Thursday by saying he wishes he didn't have to talk because he hasn't shaved in a couple of days. Clearly he's had other things on his mind.

Graham's always emphasized the importance of ball protection, and he continued to harp on that sentiment Thursday. The Utes own one of the top turnover ratios in the country, and forced six turnovers against Cal last week, including five interceptions of elite NFL prospect Jared Goff in their victory over the Golden Bears.
