Call it a premature evacuation.
Arizona State fans thought the Sun Devils had beaten BYU on Saturday.
ASU tried to kill off the final 58 seconds of the game by running backward and burning clock.
Quarterback Sam Leavitt finally heaved the ball up in the air figuring by the time it landed the clock would read 0:00.
The crowd stormed the field but the officials ruled BYU had a second left and a chance for a Hail Mary. That would have been problematic because the fans had already had their way with s set of goalposts.
Arizona State held on for the Big 12 win in over of the most odd finishes this year.
