Tulsa takes advantage of porous ASU defense

TULSA -- An exasperated Arkansas State Coach Butch Jones sat underneath H.A. Chapman Stadium on Saturday night, trying to find any explanation for a defense that's given up nearly 2,000 yards the past three weeks.

Defensive end Kivon Bennett, like his coach, believes ASU's beleaguered unit is close.

After surrendering 663 yards against Tulsa that remains a hard sell.

The Golden Hurricane overwhelmed the Red Wolves 41-34 as ASU closed its non-conference sschedule with a third consecutive loss. Tulsa quarterback Davis Brin needed only 17 completions to throw for 355 yards and 3 touchdowns, and running back Shamari Brooks added 155 yards and a score on the ground.
