ASU beat a mediocre Colorado 21-3 to go 3-0 for the season so far. Defense worked well, and certainly has improved compared to last season, but the offense was, frankly, crap and Rudy Carpenter (QB) never really got his act together. It has been a long time since ASU has gone into a Q4 with only 14 points. As usual, turnovers and stupid penalties were a problem and we deserve to fall out of the rankings. Next week against Cal will be more painful that it should be unless the offense gets a clue.
