Wesley keys huge 1st half, #7 Arizona State takes Pac-12 South lead with 52-14 win over #10 Boise State
TEMPE -- The Broncos came to Tempe with a plan - if they were going to lose, it would be Matt Wesley's arm and not Steve Williams' legs that beat them. Wesley did just that, hitting multiple big pass plays down the field and breaking up the 8 and 9 man boxes the Broncos brought early. The sophomore found Josh Jackson for a 46 yard score, Bryant Mosley for a 43 yard score and Jason Cox for a 32 yard score - in all, he threw for 247 yards and 3 scores on just 19 pass attempts. Once the Broncos abandoned their single high safety game plan, Steve Williams went to work, adding 165 yards and 3 scores to his already record breaking season.
The win is Arizona State's 9th of the season and puts them back in the drivers seat of the Pac-12 South.
