THE GAME –  Sun Devil Football will lift the lid on the 2024 season this weekend as it welcomes the Wyoming Cowboys to Mountain America Stadium on Saturday, Aug. 31. Scheduled for a 7:30 p.m. AZT kickoff, the contest will be broadcast on FS1 (Chris Myers, Petros Papadakis) and available over the airwaves locally on ESPN 620 AM (Tim Healey, Jeff Van Raaphorst, Kevin Turner, Jeff Munn).

ON THE COWBOYS –  The Sun Devils lead the all-time series against Wyoming, 9-6, but the two squads have not played since the programs were WAC rivals back in 1977. The Cowboys are entering their first season with new head coach Jay Sawvel at the helm. ASU starting quarterback Sean Leavitt played at Michigan State last season for new Wyoming offensive coordinator Jay Johnson. On the flip side, new Sun Devil offensive coordinator Marcus Arroyo was the offensive coordinator for the Cowboys in 2009 and 2010. Current linebackers coach A.J. Cooper spent six seasons at assorted defensive coach position withe the Cowboys between 2014-19. Sun Devil Football’s 2022 standout running back X Valladay was a transfer from Wyoming. 

KICKING OFF

  • ASU has now held opponents to less than 30 points in 41 of 67 games since 2018 (61.2 percent), notable as it DID allow 30+ in 32 of the 43 previous games (74.4 percent) in a span from 2013- 17.
  • Since 2018, ASU has held opponents to 400 total yards of offense or less on 36 occasions over 67 games (53.7 percent of the time). For comparison, ASU accomplished the feat just 24 times in the 65 previous games (36.9 percent) from 2013-2017. 
  • The Sun Devils forced 157 missed tackles on offense last season, the 23rd-highest tally in the FBS in the regular season. Conversely,  the team has among the Top-50 fewest missed tackles in the FBS with 129.
  • On 54 opponent red zone drives last season, ASU allowed just 29 touchdowns – a 53.7 percent touchdown conversion rate that was was 30th-lowest in the FBS despite facing 146 red zone plays – the 17th-highest tally in the FBS.
  • The Sun Devil defense was succesful in harrying opposing quarterbacks, giving team’s just an average of 2.37 seconds to throw the ball – the 20th-fastest time in the FBS.
  • The team forced a quick pressure (less than 2.5 seconds to pressure) on 114 occasions – 26th-best in the FBS and the team’s overall 159 total pressures were 30th. These numbers come despite blitzing only 29.6 percent of the time – the 32nd-lowest percentage in the FBS. 
  • Despite being the only FBS team to see at least 11 different combinations of its starting five offensive linemen due to unprecedented bad luck on the injury front, ASU allowed just 13 total sacks in its final eight games (including four games with no sacks) compared to 17 in the first four games.  The 13 sacks in the last 8 games are 42nd-lowest in that time while the 17 in the first four weeks were sixth-WORST in the country.
  • The team allowed a knockdown percentage of 11.1 percent in the final eight games and is right in the middle of the FBS. Through the first four weeks of the season, ASU’s knockdown percentage was 21.9 – 7th worst in the FBS.

BY THE NUMBERS

1,000
– While both were on the Sun Devil roster last season, antiquated NCAA rules that were inevitably overturned kept Jake Smith and Xavion Alford out for the season. When the duo takes Frank Kush Field on Saturday night, it will have been 1,342 days for Smith (Dec 29, 2020 – Aug. 31, 2024) and 1,009 days for Alford (Nov. 27, 2021 – Aug. 31, 2024) since either player has appeared in a college football game. Ben Coleman was another newcomer last season that was forced to miss the year with an injury and will be taking the field for the first time in 646 days (Nov. 25,  2022-Aug. 31, 2024) on Saturday.

60 – Kenny Dillingham has put together a roster with 60 total newcomers this season – the ninth-most of any FBS school behind only Colorado after being second a year ago. The Sun Devils have just three players in their final year of eligibility that started their careers at Arizona State (Trenton Bourguet, Caleb McCullough and Anthonie Cooper) – tied for the fourth-lowest tally in the FBS. ASU’s 46 scholarship newcomers are tied for third most in the FBS while the teams 58 returning players are tied for the fifth-lowest tally in the FBS. Only 38 of those players are scholarship student-athletes, tied for the third-lowest mark in the FBS.

29 – On 54 opponent red zone drives last season, ASU allowed just 29 touchdowns – a 53.7 percent touchdown conversion rate that was was 30th-lowest in the FBS despite facing 146 red zone plays – the 17th-highest tally in the FBS.. On opponent drives starting within 60 yards of the ASU end zone, the Sun Devils allowed a touchdown just 32.3 percent of the time (10/31), 40th in the FBS and and 11th of the 53 teams with over 25 such drives faced. The defense helped hold opponents to just six touchdowns allowed following 20 turnovers by ASU’s offensive or special teams units (30.0 percent), ranking among the Top-50 schools in the country in the category.

13 – Despite being the only FBS team to see at least 11 different combinations of its starting five offensive linemen due to unprecedented bad luck on the injury front, ASU allowed just 13 total sacks in its final eight games (including four games with no sacks) compared to 17 in the first four games.  The 13 sacks in the last 8 games are 42nd-lowest in that time while the 17 in the first four weeks were sixth-WORST in the country. The team allowed a knockdown percentage of 11.1 percent in the final eight games and is right in the middle of the FBS. Through the first four weeks of the season, ASU’s knockdown percentage was 21.9 – 7th worst in the FBS.

9 – Cam Skattebo has been stuffed for no gain or a loss on just 8.9 percent of his career carries, good for the third-lowest tally among all active backs at both the FBS and FCS levels (min. 300 attempts). His 10.5 percent stuff rate last season was 14th among FBS running backs this year. He has forced 150 career missed tackles on rushing plays, 5th among active FBS/FCS halfbacks while his 0.38 missed tackles forced per rushing attempt are third (min. 300 attempts) entering 2024. Skattebo has rushed for a first down or touchdown on 37.2 percent of his career carries, tops among all active FBS/FCS backs (min. 300 attempts) entering 2024

3 – Leif Fautanu has played 2,657 career snaps, the third-most snaps among active players heading into the 2024 season behind only NMSU’s Canaan Yaro (2,816) and Texas’ Jake Majors (2,707). He started all 12 games for the Sun Devils, playing all but one snap of the season (helmet came off) for the team at center (850). He finished with the fifth-best pass-blocking score among centers in the Pac-12 (78.7) – a total good for 29th in the country among all centers (min. 500 snaps)…It will be the second-best grade of any returning player in the Big 12 this season.

It was the longest by a running back since Rachaad White had a 93-yard run in the 70-7 victory over Arizona back on  2021. It was also the longest rush of Skattebo’s career. 

KEEP THEM IN FRONT OF YOU

  • ASU has allowed just 18 plays over 50 yards to opponents since the 2018 season over 67 games – tied for second-fewest in the FBS in that time behind only Washington (16). ASU ranked in the bottom 10 nationally in 50+ yards played allowed each year from 2014-17.
