Bizarre finish in Tempe. Part 1: Leading 28-23 with seven seconds left, ASU elects to have QB Sam Leavitt throw the ball away, thinking it will run the clock out. When he does, the fans immediately storm the field.

Part 2: As fans continue to storm the field, officials review the play.

Part 4: Roughly 13 minutes after ASU ran what was thought to be the final play of the game, the field is cleared. BYU gets the ball at the 49 with one second left. QB Jake Retzlaff actually completes the pass to receiver Chase Roberts, but short of the end zone. ASU wins.

All of that is almost certainly avoided if ASU doesn't do this. Facing a 2nd-and-goal from the 3 with a chance to go up at least 11 points, ASU opts to have QB Sam Leavitt run backwards, losing 29 yards. He then ran backwards again on third down, losing 10.

Part 5: In the aftermath, Dan Mullen and Joey Galloway criticize ASU's end-of-game strategy.

If that Hail Mary catch wasn’t 5 yd short, this could’ve been the worst blunder/ choke job ever.

Storming the field as 3.5 pt favorites is wild

Part 3: Surrounded by fans, ASU coach Kenny Dillingham argues with the officials. It is eventually ruled that one second would be placed back on the clock.

Right now @ChicagoBears head coach Matt Eberflus is figuring out a way to out do that bad clock management

You left out that ASU had 2nd and goal at the four and chose to run backwards in a feeble attempt to run out the clock rather than go forward and win the game.
