D.J. Taylor returned the opening kickoff 100 yards for a touchdown and Arizona State scored twice in the opening 56 seconds to rout rival Arizona 70-7 Friday night. Arizona State (1-2) made a mockery of the annual Territorial Cup game from the opening kick return, capitalizing on a string of Arizona turnovers to build a 35-0 lead by early in the second quarter. Freshman DeaMonte Trayanum converted an opening Arizona fumble into a 4-yard TD run 43 seconds after Taylor's TD return and the Sun Devils piled on one score after another. Rachaad White ran for 133 yards and three touchdowns, Jayden Daniels accounted for three scores and Arizona State won its fourth straight in the series for the first time since 1975-78. - Arizona State/AP College Football

Pierce, also ASU's recruiting coordinator, said freshman D.J. Taylor was recruited out of metro Tampa, Florida, because of his athleticism and position versatility. Taylor was something of a revelation against UCLA with 115 yards on kickoff return. "He's tremendously gifted," Pierce said. "You turn on the highlight tape, you'll see him doing everything - quarterback, running back, wildcat, receiver, special teams. He can play multiple positions. He started off at defensive back for us and as talented as we are in that running back room, we thought he could would help us there as well. "In game 2 (UCLA), he showed everybody what he has. He has elite speed, a knack to find his way through holes. He's not a small guy (5-11, 195). He's what we want to do as a program, having athletes who can play different positions." - Arizona Republic
