The Sun Devils still had a good season at 9-3, and Graham’s turnaround of the program is very close to being complete. But losing the Pac-12 South title had to be tough to swallow.

UCLA gave Arizona State a gift by losing to Stanford. Then again, Arizona State gave the division a gift by losing to Oregon State.
But now, Todd Graham’s team can’t really be too sick because they were locked in a game on Saturday to win the Pac 12 South and simply lost it. It wasn’t like they gave it away or blew it by losing to a bad team. They simply lost to another good team when both were fighting to win the division.
Whether it is Taylor Kelly or Mike Bercovici in the game, the Sun Devils have proven that they are a very talented football team and can win with either player. D.J. Foster is a great running back as well, but unfortunately, the defense was not able to come through at certain times when it mattered most throughout the season.
