Each team came in with Bowl hopes riding. Both Arizona State and Washington were at 4-5, needing to win at least two of their last three games to secure Bowl eligibility. Arizona State took a step toward that, while Washington didn't kill its chances, hopes for a Bowl are slimmer than they were this morning.
A total team collapse overtook a dominant first half that should have amounted to more than the 17 points on the scoreboard. Downfield strikes and a strong running game gave way to incomplete passes and penetration in the backfield, as Arizona State walked away with the win, 27-17.
