'We were picked to win four games this year, so a lot of Sun Devil fans picked the over in Vegas. .. Put that money back into the collective.'
The win was Arizona State's first over Utah since 2018 and Dillingham's first over a ranked opponent in his 18-game tenure. The Sun Devils are now 5-1 after being picked to finish last in the Big 12.On the fans storming the field and surrounding him during his on-field interview with ESPN:
"Chaos, absolute chaos. All of a sudden I was shaking coach's hand, and then there were thousands of people on the field swarming around us. It was awesome though. That's what college sports is about. That's what activating the valley is about. That's what coming to a college is about. You go to a school that way you can remember moments like this. ... The fans, the students, they remember these moments.""That was a guy that was here through all the mess.
"The defensive performance, just unbelievable the way they stepped up ... specifically in the first half in the running game.""I don't even give pregame speeches guys. Our own guys give pregame speeches. Think about that. I leave, they talk. Because it's not about these coaches, it's about these guys."
On the Sun Devils surprising 5-1 start to the season after being picked to finish last in the Big 12: "We were picked to win four games this year, so a lot of Sun Devil fans picked the over in Vegas. For those of you guys who won, put that money back into the collective.""We're going to recruit really good players here. There's a lot of really good players who want to be here. I'm from here. I'm born and raised here. I would love for these local guys who are committed elsewhere to come here.
