545- The total number of yards ASU's defense gave up to Colorado. It's the most yards the Buffaloes have put up since moving to the Pac-12. The team has eclipsed 500 yards just twice in that time: Week 1 last season versus Colorado State and Week 4 in 2012 against Washington State.

8-4 (7-3)- Todd Graham's overall and Pac-12 road record, the best winning percentage on the road by an ASU coach dating back to 1980. Only one coach had an above .500 record on the road: John Cooper. From 1985-87, the Sun Devils went 7-5 (6-4 Pac-12) under Cooper. Two- The amount of turnovers forced by redshirt sophomore safety Jordan Simone. He made his first career interception and forced his first career fumble against Colorado.

Two (again)- This time, two is the number of catches ASU's tight ends have so far this season, both of which came Saturday against Colorado. Redshirt senior De'Marieya Nelson caught the first, a completion for nine yards, and redshirt sophomore Kody Kohl caught the second, for eight yards. Both catches came in the first quarter, and neither tight end was targeted again.

50- The length of redshirt senior quarterback Taylor Kelly's third-quarter touchdown run. It was the longest run for a touchdown of Kelly's career, but his 52-yard rush last week against New Mexico is his longest run overall.

19-0- The Sun Devils' record under Graham when leading at halftime. ASU has two come-from-behind wins under Graham, making its record 21-9 overall. All nine losses have come when ASU was already behind at halftime.

10- Redshirt junior linebacker Antonio Longino set a career high in tackles against Colorado, with 10. He actually broke his career best in the first half, when he recorded six tackles, besting his previous career high of five, which he set last week against New Mexico.

12- The amount of Sun Devils to start their first career game this season. That number was increased Saturday versus Colorado with Longino making his first start, over redshirt sophomore Edmond Boateng at Devilbacker.

7.4- Junior running back D.J. Foster's yards-per-carry last night. Even averaging a spectacular 7.4, Foster still managed to lower his season average. He was at 10.7 coming into the game but is now at 9.4.
