Simply when the Texas Longhorns gave the impression to be in charge of their CFP quarterfinal matchup with the Arizona State Solar Devils, Cam Skattebo took over the Peach Bowl.
Skattebo, Arizona State’s do-everything working again, carried the Solar Devils throughout a fourth-quarter rally that erased a 24-8 Texas edge heading into the ultimate interval and finally pressured time beyond regulation.
Whereas Texas prevailed over Skattebo’s Solar Devils in double time beyond regulation, the senior working again completed with 269 complete yards and three complete touchdowns (two dashing and one passing).
These numbers are eye-popping, however there’s a lot that Skattebo did on and off the sector that confirmed simply how large of an impression he had for the Solar Devils on Wednesday. Let’s check out 5 moments that mattered.
