The Arizona State Sun Devils practiced with full pads and helmets for the third time this spring at the Kajikawa practice fields Friday night.
Next practice: Tuesday, March 27
Special teams
There are two ways to look at what happened with special teams: either the kick unit is in trouble or the block unit is going to be elite. The defense blocked both a punt and a field goal during practice and put pressure on sophomore Brandon Ruiz again, forcing a miss wide right. The Sun Devils were tied for the lead in the country in punt blocks last season, so this could have more to do with that, but it’s something to look at moving forward.
