In a must-win game to qualify for a postseason bowl, the Arizona State football team was trampled 56-35 by the formerly winless Arizona Wildcats.
Playing in the 90th Territorial Cup, a rivalry series that started in 1899, the 3-9 Wildcats romped while only attempting eight passes. The team relied heavily on a potent rushing attack that picked up 511 yards on the ground, complemented by seven rushing touchdowns.
“I wanna give credit to Arizona they did a great job tonight, they deserve the credit. As for us, that was the worst performance we’ve had since we’ve been here.
