Bray, #9 Arizona State crush #7 Cal 56-24 in Pac-12 Championship, earn first trip to Rose Bowl since 1996
TEMPE -- Arizona State struck a big early blow in this contest, ringing up 21 first quarter points en route to the school's first conference championship since 1996. Mark Bray's 321 total yards and 5 TD's were key in getting the Sun Devil's out front early, and the clutch performance may very well have sown up the Heisman Trophy for him. Credit must also go to the oft-maligned defense, who forced two turnovers and held Cal to just 289 total yards of offense.
In addition to their first conference title since 1996, the Sun Devils will play in their first Rose Bowl since they faced Ohio State that same year. That game ended in a bitter loss, as legendary Sun Devils QB Jake Plummer fell just short at the end. This time around, they'll face #5 Texas. A win would be their first since 1986.
