Arizona State goes on scoring spree

SAN FRANCISCO Paul George Navy Jersey Arizona State did more than rewrite the record books while scoring touchdowns on its first nine possessions of a 62 28 rout of Navy on Saturday in the Kraft Fight Hunger Bowl at AT Park.

The Sun Devils also provided a brief haven of distraction for teammate Marion Grice, who played despite grieving the shooting death of his brother eight days earlier.

Grice, a junior running back from Houston, rushed for 159 yards and scored TDs of 10 and 39 yards. He was named the most outstanding offensive player of the game after contributing to the highest scoring performance in a bowl game by any current member of the Pac 12 Conference.

"It was really awesome for me to hand Marion the game ball," first year ASU coach Todd Graham said.

Grice's brother, 22 year old Joshua Wood, was killed by a gunman on Dec. 21 after purchasing a pair of Nike Air Jordan XI "Bred" athletic shoes at a Houston shopping mall.

"He was very emotional after the game," Graham said of Grice. "He's got a lot of brothers who love and support him here."

Grice, described by Graham as "a very private young man" under any circumstances, chose not to speak to reporters afterward. Graham said Marshall took Grice under his wing when he rejoined the team after spending several days with his family.

"Friendship is really the best thing you can do for someone in that situation," said Marshall, a graduate of San Jose's Valley Christian High. "I can't even fathom what he's going through. I just try to be there for him."

ASU (8 5) led 34 7 at halftime, fueled by Grice's 10 yard run and three of Kelly's touchdown passes.

Kelly finished 17 for 19 for 268 yards, with TD passes of 16, 52 and 50 yards to wideout Rashad Ross, and an 11 yarder to Alonzo Agwuenu. He also ran for 81 yards and a 1 yard score.

Marshall had eight carries for 59 yards, including third quarter TD runs of 1 and 33 yards, in his final game for the Sun Devils.

"Our guys came http://www.officialbasketballstore.com/david-west-jersey to play today and dominated," Graham said.

The Sun Devils scored five touchdowns in an elapsed time of 8 minutes, 56 seconds in the opening half. By the time it was 62 14 with 3:39 left in the third quarter, ASU had crossed the goal line nine times on drives that consumed just 13:38.

"We knew what they did, we just couldn't stop it," Navy David West Mens Jersey linebacker and captain Brye French said.

"They whupped our butts," Navy coach Ken Niumatalolo said. "They had us on our heels the whole time. They were a machine."

The win was ASU's first in a bowl game since a 45 40 defeat of Rutgers in the 2005 Insight Bowl. In the three bowl defeats since then, the Sun Devils were outscored 149 82.

Navy (8 5), which beat New Mexico 34 19 at San Francisco in 2004 when the game was known as the Emerald Bowl, has lost five of its past six postseason games.

The Midshipmen scored their only first half touchdown on a 3 yard pass Paul George Womens Jersey from freshman Keenan Reynolds to Matt Aiken with 9:24 left in the second quarter.

ASU defensive tackle Will Sutton received the Pac 12 Pat Tillman Defensive Player of the Year trophy from Tillman's father during pregame ceremonies. The junior then earned defensive player of the game honors after totaling 2 sacks. Sutton said he hasn't decided whether he will declare for the NFL draft.

The Sneaker Retrospective

The days of retroactive fashion are currently in effect, with a premium influence being placed upon the shoe industry. With the popularity of boutique shoe companies like Nike, adidas and Puma as industry leaders in the retro craze, the spread of this distinguished style has spread from the grassroots sneaker lovers to mainstream America, with even legendary shoe maker Converse reintroducing its classic Chuck Taylor All Star with new design twists. Among the leaders is Nike, which spearheaded the craze with its original sneaker hit from the Eighties in the Air Force I. But one other sneaker that has officialbasketballstore.com/mike-conley-jersey caught on with shoe aficionados is Nike's Dunk sneaker.

The Nike Dunk is considered the younger brother of the AF I, as both sneakers were created as premium basketball shoes within the first decade of Nike's emergence in the shoe industry (which began in the 1970s in the state of Oregon). While having been neglected as the later Nike models such as the Air Jordan, Air Max running shoe, and the industry's first ever cross training shoe rose as the cream of the company's crop and the canon for what athletic shoes should be, the Dunk has come of age within the past five years.

The Dunk is a relatively simple shoe with basic stitch lines along the shoe. With the simplicity of plain leather sections on the shoe's upper, and a rubber midsole and outsole as the shoe's base, the Dunk has reemerged as a perfect candidate for a wide range of color arrangement and placement on the latest models. It is this wide assortment of style options that is available for the Dunk that has caused these shoe lovers (affectionately called "sneakerheads") to chase after limited models issued by Nike, causing some serious collectors to bid hundreds of dollars for special edition Dunk over the Internet.

Having been reissued into Nike's Skateboarding Mike Conley Womens Jersey division, popularly known as Nike SB, it is the SB Dunk that has caused the greatest number of sneakerheads to come calling to sneaker stores not only nationally, but internationally. regions causing a great dynamic of demand for the little supply of the sneakers themselves.

This leads to the issue of what shoes were primarily made for protection and comfort. While Dunk lovers favor the shoe's hipness and versatility, it is the history of the Dunk itself which lends to performance. Skateboarders now can see the Dunk as a viable option for performance on the ramps and rails. The aforementioned Zoom Air setup and a thicker sockliner have allowed for the standard comfort needed for the constant body abuse, absorbed largely by the feet. Nike SB's sub division, Nike 6.0, lacks the Zoom cushioning but does offset that with a thicker insole, and as a result, comes with a cheaper price tag.

As far as the Dunk's original blueprint design for the hardwood floor, it's not advised to actually play in the Dunk for basketball. As mentioned earlier, the standard Dunk models are basic and prehistoric are far as basketball shoes are http://www.officialbasketballstore.com/nick-young-jersey concerned. With no Air cushioning, a relatively thin insole, its traditional low cut style making the wearer vulnerable to ankle sprains, Dunks are no way to gain an edge in winning a basketball game. These are, in fact, performance wearable with a few basic augmentations.

Dunks do come in the rare high top version, as well as the newer mid cut style (which also comes equipped with a strap for support). If you are participating in fast paced court sports like basketball, these models should be what are worn, because of the protection provided to the lower leg and ankle. Outside of the mid cut SB version of the Dunk (the SB Dunk Mid) utilizing Zoom Air to keep the bottom of the foot comfortable, the best thing to do is to buy new performance insoles that can either totally replace the existing glued down midsoles or Nick Young Womens Jersey lay right on top of what are already inside of the shoes. Three quarters length arch support insoles also do the job.

In any case, whether the Dunks are solely stepping down the street or doing double duty in the weight room, these shoes are high fashion items, and certainly worth their weight in price and casual use.
