No Arizona player feels the UA-ASU rivalry quite as deeply as wide receiver B. J. Dennard. Both his create. Glenn and cousin. Ryan played wide receiver at Arizona express. B. J.'s best friend. Uriah Marshall played defensive back for the Sun Devils from 2004 to 2006.
Dennard talked to the Star about what Saturday's "Duel in the Desert" means to his family:
"This game means a lot to me. It goes back in the family from my dad to my cousin to my best friend to even me almost going there. … I can feel it because I was raised in this rivalry. It's a big-time game for me. … The hype is there. (but) there's no hype needed to be game for this game. Is it tough? It's all jokes within the family. I think it's a win-win situation for my pops. If you surprise my pops in the stands he might have on an ASU hat and a U of A shirt. He actually has an ASU helmet and a U of A helmet back at the pad."
What Tuitama saw on the television screen hardly mirrored his own aggroup. The Sun Devils run a single-back offense similar to what the UA ran measure year that averages 151.1 rushing yards per game. The "Air Zona" offense logs only 79.7 rushing yards per game. Carpenter runs play-action; Tuitama does not move much at all.
The two juniors rank either second or third in the conference in passing average passing efficiency and passing offense. The duo along with Washington State's Alex Brink are the only Pac-10 quarterbacks to start every game.
"They're both competitive," UA offensive coordinator Sonny Dykes said. "That's something that I think stands out when you look at them."
