Season Summary:
For the second straight year, ASU stumbled out of the gate, standing 2-3 after a 48-17 loss to Notre Dame. Then Redmond embarrassed the school with his now-infamous secret marriage. But a surprising 28-7 win at Washington came in handy when it came to bowl contention, and the Sun Devils earned their tickets to Hawaii with a 42-27 defeat of rival Arizona in the last game of the season. QB Ryan Kealy suffered a torn ACL and won't be able to play in the bowl game.

Season Summary:
The Demon Deacons earned their first bowl bid since 1992 with a 26-23 upset of Georgia Tech in their final game. A senior-heavy club, Wake utilized the running of Kane and a defense that allowed only 18 points a game all season to reverse six years of losing.
