ASU allows game to slip away in 3rd

MEMPHIS -- Facing a fourth and 4 from the Memphis 11 early in the third quarter, Arkansas State University Coach Blake Anderson had a decision to make: Go for it and try to tie the game with a touchdown, or take the points with a 28-yard field.

Anderson chose the latter, cutting Memphis' lead to 21-17

The aggressiveness came moments later. And failed.

An unsuccessful surprise onside kick by ASU helped Memphis respond with a quick touchdown, then a Red Wolves fumble led to another Memphis touchdown.
