Before the game I tweeted out the Keys to the game for the Buffaloes, one of them was keeping everything in front of the defense. Mainly Nate Landman making sure that the true freshmen for the Sun Devils doesn’t use his legs to beat them. They completed that task, taking away the run lanes for Daniels. The other two were Making sure Montez found Shenault early and often and getting the pass game going early.
Montez didn’t disappoint as they achieved just that in the pass game. Throwing for 337 passing yards and three touchdowns to the same Wide Receiver named Tony Brown.
