Arizona State Wins Big 12 Championship

Arizona State University (ASU) football achieved a remarkable turnaround under Coach Kenny Dillingham, capturing the Big 12 Championship in their inaugural season with an impressive 45-19 victory over Iowa State. This victory marks ASU's first outright conference title since 1996 and secures a place in the College Football Playoff for the first time in the program's history. Senior running back Cam Skattebo was a standout performer, accumulating 208 total yards and scoring three touchdowns, while quarterback Sam Leavitt added four touchdowns of his own. The Big 12's commissioner, Brett Yormark, highlighted the importance of ASU's success for the conference's image, especially during a season where established programs like Texas and Oklahoma have left for the SEC. Meanwhile, ASU's volleyball team also celebrated a Big 12 title, adding to the university's championship successes. Fans can relive the football season's highlights through a new commemorative book detailing the Sun Devils' journey to the championship.
