The Arizona State fan base enjoyed storming the Mountain America Stadium Field. Twice! The hard-fought 28-23 win over No. 14 Brigham Young Saturday afternoon boosted ASU (9-2, 6-2) into a four-way tie for first place with BYU, Colorado and Iowa State, each of whom have two conference losses. But it was not without some very anxious moments.

BYU (9-2, 6-2) is still in contention to play in the Big 12 championship game on Dec. 7 in Arlington, Texas, thanks to Colorado — the other team that entered Saturday’s games with just one league loss — losing 37-21 to Kansas.

For BYU, it was a first half to forget. The Cougars were outmuscled in the trenches, outplayed in nearly every phase, and at that point, it seemed as though they were just biding their time until the inevitable end. But then came the second half.
