Valiant in Peach Bowl loss Leavitt completed 24 of 46 passes for 222 yards and one interception during Wednesday's 39-31 overtime defeat against Texas. He also had 13 rushes for 60 yards.

Impact Leavitt didn't put up outstanding numbers against Texas, but he nearly led the Sun Devils to what would've been a stunning upset victory. The quarterback was under pressure all afternoon, and he wasn't always on the same page with what was a depleted receiver corps with the absence of Jordyn Tyson. Still, it was quite the season for the Michigan State transfer, as Leavitt put up 2,885 passing yards, 24 touchdowns and six interceptions while running for 443 yards and five scores. The Sun Devils' future is bright with him at the helm.
