The Dennis Erickson Era At Arizona State, Encapsulated In One Play

Arizona State fired head football coach Dennis Erickson almost a month ago, but allowed him to coach the team through the end of the season—including tonight's Las Vegas Bowl matchup against Boise State. If there's any play that demonstrates the futility of the Sun Devils under Erickson's tutelage, it's this one, in which Erickson passionately attempts to call timeout, is ignored by referees, then watches his quarterback throw an interception that's returned 104 yards for a touchdown. Fare thee well, Dennis. [ESPN]
