The Cowboys' defense fueled the 17-3 lead at halftime, holding Arizona State (1-1) to 158 yards of total offense.

Florida transfer Emory Jones matched nearly half of that total on one pass, a 73-yard completion to Giovanni Sanders that set up a 1-yard touchdown run by Xazavian Valladay on Arizona State's first drive to open the second half.

Arizona State went 0-for-7 in third-down conversion attempts in the first half. The Sun Devils went on to finish 2-for-13.

Their first successful third-down conversion was not until 1:18 remained in the third quarter, when Jones, on his own 19-yard line, completed a 10-yard pass to Sanders with six yards needed for the first down.

Arizona State eventually scored on a 21-yard pass from Jones to Elijhah Badger to cut the lead to 20-17 with 14:25 remaining.
