Durant throws an interception in our own territory. Arizona State has it at our 2-yard line. <img border="0" alt="[Bang Head]" title="" src="graemlins/banghead.gif" />
End of the first quarter.

Touchdown ASU first play of the 2nd.
Tied at 7.
-JD
The Devils are moving the ball at will vs the Heels but cannot convert in the redzone, UNC is moving the ball well on Offense and their D is tight inside the 20, a good game so far!
<img border="0" title="" alt="[Cool]" src="cool.gif" />
Sounds like our offense has stagnated. I expect ASU to continue to move the ball at will against us -- hopefully we can keep some of these drives to field goals (made and missed).
-JD
The game is far from over but thus far UNC cannot contain the Devils O, I would rather it be 20-7 though, Our kicker is normally pretty good from inside 40.

JD, it sucks the game is not televised, I thought this was an intriguing and exciting out of conf. intersectional game, and not a very common thing, Pac Ten vs ACC. Oh well next years game will hopefully be on ESPN.
Another three and out.
Lafferty isn't a good enough punter to keep the field position what we want it to be if we can't get some first downs.
-JD
Well, I think if we were expected to be good this year, there might have been a better chance of its being televised.
-JD
Aiken catch takes it into ASU half of the field.
-JD
And now we have to punt. <img border="0" title="" alt="[Frown]" src="frown.gif" />
We're 2 of 6 on third down conversions.
-JD
UNC was moving ball, the Devils D has been forcing a lot of TOs , too bad they couldn't recover that fumble, Suggs made one of his first big plays. Penalty on the kick, this is a pretty good game, sounds physical thus far, I expected UNC to play a physical game.
Well, we made another stop, but a good kick and a penalty is going to give us terrible field position again.
-JD
Tough penalty, Devils would have had good field position, instead the Heels do.

Touchdown pass to Chesley Borders!!! Orner PAT is good!
Tied at 14.
-JD
Not a good way to close the half by the Devil D.
<img border="0" title="" alt="[Frown]" src="frown.gif" />
Another missed field goal for ASU (this time a 36-yarder).
-JD
Tied at 14 at halftime. I'll take it!!!
-JD
Barth is having a horrible game, he is losing this game it should be at least 20-14, but all FGs were makeable, should be a good game, the Devils have been explosive in the third, thats when they have been blowing games wide open, we shall see.
<img border="0" alt="[Cheers]" title="" src="graemlins/cheers.gif" />
UT vs Arkansas is in the fifth OT
And that's when we've been blowing games too! <img border="0" title="" alt="[Wink]" src="wink.gif" /> Hope it's different this time around....
-JD
UNC has dominated time of poss, ASU is passing great but running inconsistently. The Devils will have to run the ball some and our kicker better make one!

Tar Heels start the second half from the 32.

Three and out. We're now 3 of 8 on third-down conversions.
Carolina recovers the fumble on the punt return!
-JD
Suddenly we're on the ASU 23 after a 20-yard pass to Aiken.
Stick it in Heels!
-JD
Intercepted in the end zone. <img border="0" alt="[Bang Head]" title="" src="graemlins/banghead.gif" />
Durant has yet to learn not to force the ball.
-JD
Crowd is in the game, the Devs are making stupid penalties, sounded like a cheap shot out of bounds by Suggs
<img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="smile.gif" /> int
<img border="0" title="" alt="[Frown]" src="frown.gif" /> personal foul
Sack, fumbled, and recovered by the Heels!!!

We're now on the 16. Geez guys, don't do anything stupid. <img border="0" alt="[NoNo]" title="" src="graemlins/nono.gif" />
-JD
47-yarder for Orner!
17-14 Heels.
Okay, these field goals are nice... but I fear they won't be enough once ASU starts rolling.
-JD
Candidate went into Locker room apparently injured, Walter was shaken up on sack and is getting attention from trainers, Christianson (2nd string) is warming up on sideline. Devils better sack up, they are anything but explosive in this third, our kicker is really killing us right now.
Heels get a big stop and get the ball back.

Hard to tell without TV but it seems ASU has neutralized the TEs.
Missed tackles have ASU down on the Carolina 19.
-JD
And make that touchdown ASU now.
21-17 ASU.
-JD
Mike Williams up the middle!
TOUCHDOWN HEELS!!! Chesley Borders gets his third TD of the night!
24-21 Heels!
-JD
UNC is working ASU's weak corners, Oliver is the best starter.Devils D better tighten up now.

ASU driving at the Heels 47 at the end of the third.
ANSWER THE BELL HEELS!
-JD
Way too close for comfort after three, on one hand the Devils are moving the ball great and should start punching it in, on the other they have already squandered many scoring opps and UNC is now moving the ball well, here we go.
<img border="0" title="" alt="[Cool]" src="cool.gif" />
Touchdown ASU.
28-24 Sun Devils.
-JD
Fasten your seatbelt! Devs now jump on top 28-24!
<img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="smile.gif" />
Waddell intercepts it in the endzone! What a huge play!
