Arizona State quarterback Jayden Daniels scores on a carry as Washington’s Cooper McDonald defends duirng the second half of an NCAA college football game Saturday <\/span> <\/span>ASU was down 7-0, then 14-0, then 17-7, then 24-14 \u2014 it looked like the final blow that would knock the Sun Devils out of contention for a Pac-12 championship.But they simply refused to quit.\u201cI just feel like we did not blink at all,\u201d offensive guard LaDarius Henderson said. \u201cWhen it was 14-0, we didn\u2019t blink. When it was 17-7, we didn\u2019t blink. \u2026 Everybody was so locked in and the energy was high, and it never took a dip.\u201dNot even when ASU (7-3, 5-2 Pac-12) was down 10 points to UW (4-6, 3-4) deep in the second half.<\/strong>Huskies running back Cameron Davis bobbled a pitch on second-and-8 with about 8:20 left in the third quarter. Defensive end Tyler Johnson saw it and attacked.<\/strong>\u201cYou play the play,\u201d he said. \u201cYou fight the fight. \u2026 no matter what happens, you play the next play and move on.<\/strong>\u201cThat particular play, I just stuck to my keys, got in leverage, saw the quarterback pitch it. The running back was bobbling it, and I was trying to see if he was going to dive on it. I was just running to the ball, really. Then scoop and get going with it.\u201d<\/strong>Johnson recovered the fumble and took it 32 yards to the Husky 9, setting up a 5-yard touchdown run from Rachaad White.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cHe was a game-saver, right there,\u201d White said of Johnson. \u201cI felt the momentum really shift.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

White perhaps willed the play into reality.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cI was calling for it on the sideline,\u201d White said. \u201cI said we\u2019re gonna get a turnover. The defense is gonna get a crazy turnover or something.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

\"SEATTLE, <\/span> \u00a0Rachaad White #3 of the Arizona State Sun Devils scores a touchdown during the third quarter against the Washington Huskies at Husky Stadium on November 13, 2021 in Seattle, Washington.\u00a0 <\/span> <\/span>It was 17-14, at that point, but UW would score again before the third quarter ended to push the lead back out to 10 points.<\/strong><\/p>\n

It set up the comeback of comebacks for quarterback Jayden Daniels, who had struggled much of the night, but has earned a reputation for playing big in the biggest moments.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Daniels engineered a 20-play, 81-yard, 9-minute drive to bring ASU within three points.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Daniels converted a third-and-17 by attacking the line like he was going to run, the throwing to White at the last second for an 18-yard completion.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Later, Daniels scored from four\u00a0yards out on a run that looked like he was going to be stuffed for a loss. He went left, paused, made a spin to break a tackle and then dived across the goal line.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Henderson wasn\u2019t surprised.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cFreshman year (Jayden Daniels) did that a lot,\u201d Henderson said. \u201cWashington State. Cal. Michigan State. Where he just started putting it on his legs and getting it for us. I love it. He\u2019s a fighter.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

Henderson had to fight, too. It\u2019s not easy on an offensive lineman to go 20 plays without a break.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cI was so tired,\u201d he said. \u201cI just was looking at the defensive lineman looking at me, and I was trying to act like I wasn\u2019t tired. But I was tired. You\u2019ve just got to fight, and you\u2019ve got to finish.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

That was on White.<\/strong><\/p>\n

ASU took the lead the next time it had the ball on a drive that featured a heavy dose of the NFL prospect from Kansas City, Missouri.<\/strong><\/p>\n

White went for 29 yards and a touchdown on five carries, including a critical run on fourth-and-1, to set up the Sun Devils with a 28-24 lead after the extra point. It came with about a minute left to play, and it was ASU\u2019s first lead of the game.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cRunning behind these guys is awesome, regardless of what\u2019s going on,\u201d White said.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cThese guys love me. I love them. It\u2019s just awesome to have a game-winning drive where we run the ball. \u2026 It felt great. I just want to step up and be there for my team. They needed me, and I wanted to be there for them. When I need them, they\u2019re there for me. It feels great. I\u2019m just glad we\u2019re winning, honestly.\u201d<\/strong><\/p>\n

The 35-30 ASU win came despite plenty of adversity.<\/strong><\/p>\n

The Dawg Pound. The Siren. Sailgating on Lake Washington. Purple reign! Actual rain. Don James. Warren Moon. Napoleon Kaufman. Marques Tuiasosopo. \u201cBow down!\u201d 1991. Steve Emtman. Sonny Sixkiller. \u201cThe Greatest Setting in College Football.\u201d And 14 Rose Bowls.<\/strong><\/p>\n

It looked like it was over. It felt like it was over. And, frankly, it should\u2019ve been over.<\/strong><\/p>\n

But ASU simply refused to quit.<\/strong><\/p>\n

There\u2019s still a chance the Sun Devils can win the Pac-12. Still a chance they can play in the Rose Bowl. Still a chance they can finish in the top 15.<\/strong><\/p>\n

That\u2019s what happens for teams that refuse to give up.<\/strong><\/p>\n

They give themselves a chance.<\/strong><\/p>\n
