Cam Skattebo, the standout running back for Arizona State University, delivered a remarkable performance in the Big 12 Championship game on December 7, 2024, solidifying his case for Heisman Trophy consideration. Skattebo rushed for 140 yards and two touchdowns in the first half alone, including a spectacular 47-yard highlight run where he averaged 12 yards per carry. He celebrated one of his scores with a Heisman pose, underscoring his impact on the game. Entering the contest, he had amassed 1,398 rushing yards and 17 touchdowns on the ground, along with 468 receiving yards and two touchdowns, ranking second nationally in all-purpose yards. His exceptional play has been instrumental in transforming the Sun Devils, picked to finish last in the Big 12, into championship contenders with a potential College Football Playoff berth. Skattebo, who previously sparked Sacramento State's rise from a Big Sky bottom-feeder to a top-ranked team, continues to be the heartbeat of Arizona State football.
