Arizona State’s Owen Long just claimed the Bronko Nagurski National Defensive Player of the Week, joining legends like Terrell Suggs while powering the Sun Devils to a gritty 24-17 win over Kansas. With 12 tackles and a game-changing forced fumble, Long’s intelligence and game sense set him apart—and has the national spotlight waking up to his All-American pedigree. But can ASU’s offense keep pace as they prepare to face Baylor? With a third-string right guard, injuries at tight end, and a shaky run game, questions loom over Cutter Boley’s protection and the ground attack. Fans could see a shift to quick passes and unexpected playmakers stepping up as the Sun Devils try to unlock their offensive potential and capitalize on a roster filled with talent.
