TEMPE, Ariz. (AP) – Arizona State placekicker Thomas Weber will miss five or six games with a groin injury.
Coach Dennis Erickson said Tuesday that either true freshman Bobby Wenzig or senior linebacker Mike Nixon would handle the placekicking duties when the Sun Devils visit No. 21 Georgia on Saturday.
Wenzig hit a 24-yard field goal and made all five PATs in a 38-14 victory over Louisiana-Monroe last week. Nixon kicked six field goals as a senior at Phoenix’s Sunnyslope High School in 2001.
