Perhaps no one better understands the significance of Arizona State’s win over BYU Saturday than Kenny Dillingham. A Phoenix native, ASU grad and the current head coach of the Sun Devils, Dillingham has seen plenty of highs and lows over his 34 years observing the program.

Arizona State football head coach Kenny Dillingham got forced to hold off on celebrating the BYU win due to a stunning referee decision.

Last week, Arizona State head football coach Kenny Dillingham was asked about working a contract extension given the Sun Devils' unprecedented turnaround this season. He said he was more worried about his coaching staff than himself.

With Arizona State leading 28-25 late in the game, it was on Kenny Dillingham and the Sun Devils to run out the last 58 seconds of the clock to end the game. They got most of the way there, draining 57 seconds before the clock was stopped after 4th down.
