Key takeaways 6
ASU QB Status: Cutter Boldley has taken approximately 99.9% of first-team reps since returning from camp and is widely expected to be named starter by Saturday morning, with Morgan State being the first opponent.
Cyrus Fisu Injury Impact: Linebacker Cyrus Fisu is out for the year with a lower body injury sustained in a preseason scrimmage. Despite this, he remains on the leadership council and will contribute as a coach on the sideline.

D-backs Resurgence: The Arizona Diamondbacks have overcome early-season struggles, highlighted by Eduardo Rodriguez's shutout performance and a gritty walk-off win against the Cubs, proving their 'snakes alive' resilience.
Paul Goldschmidt Struggles: Paul Goldschmidt is experiencing a difficult period, described as having a 'melt down' and 'bad attitude' on broadcast, raising questions about his future with the team.
