ASU football: What's happened to quarterback sneak?

Todd Graham recently was asked about the simplest play in football, the quarterback sneak, may it (almost) rest in peace.

"We haven't run a quarterback sneak?" the Arizona State coach asked.

Not yet.

This isn't a huge deal. For the most part, the Sun Devils – who host No. 4 Washington on Saturday – have fared well in short-yardage situations. Just one measure: On third downs with less than three yards to go, the Sun Devils have secured a first down on 14 of 20 opportunities.

At the same time, they have botched two short-yardage chances.
