ASU's offensive line didn't play as well as ours (in either sacks allowed or TFLs allowed), though interestingly they dominated their conference in time of possession, just like MSU did.
It's not apples-to-apples, though. I'd like to see an analysis of the defenses that each team faced. I doubt ASU saw anything like the Georgia, Auburn, Alabama defensive gauntlet.
