Big first half leads ASU to fifth straight victory

Arkansas State’s sophomore quarterback misfired on his first three passes, ending ASU's first possession of Saturday's Senior Day game in just 16 seconds.

But Hansen, other than a second-quarter interception that did no real damage, had few other mishaps while completing 20 of 27 passes for 257 yards and two touchdowns in ASU’s 41-22 victory over New Mexico State on Saturday at Centennial Bank Stadium.

Hansen threw both touchdowns in the first half, Warren Wand added a rushing touchdown and safety Money Hunter returned an interception 46 yards for a score, his fourth in his career to break the Sun Belt Conference record, while jumping to a 27-3 halftime lead.
