was searching for a spark on defense Saturday night when a hand went up.
It belonged to defensive end Marcus Moore, a redshirt freshman who wanted to help in the early going of a game against Arizona State that was already tilting heavily in the Sun Devils’ direction.
The Bruins had endured a dropped touchdown pass, a missed field goal, two penalties on the same punt return, an interception and an offsides penalty on Moore that negated a third-down stop. The Sun Devils were already ahead by two touchdowns and it was only late in the first quarter.
