Andrew Walter is being inducted into the Arizona State Athletic Hall of Fame next month.
On Saturday night, ASU needed him -- or someone of his caliber -- on the field. Like in 2002 when Dirk Koetter brought Walter off the bench and the then sophomore quarterback rallied the Sun Devils from 22 points for a 39-28 win at San Diego State.
In just the second meeting against the Aztecs since then, junior quarterback Manny Wilkins played from start to finish, throwing for 298 yards and two touchdowns, but it was not nearly enough to prevent the Sun Devils' first loss to the Aztecs in 12 meetings, 30-20.
