In their first two games in October, the Arizona State Sun Devils’ offensive line showed signs of life after a slow start to the season.
Then, USC stomped it out.
The unit of Cohl Cabral, Sam Jones, A.J. McCollum, Steven Miller and Zach Robertson faltered against the Trojans, allowing six sacks of redshirt junior quarterback Manny Wilkins. In ASU’s two previous games, Wilkins was sacked just three times combined.
Miami Heat president Pat Riley called it the “disease of more.” Success can breed more success, but it can also breed complacency and confidence, which is how Miller described preparation for the Trojans.
