What to Know
The Arizona State Sun Devils and the Colorado Buffaloes will face off in a Pac-12 clash at 10:30 p.m. ET Sept. 25 at Sun Devil Stadium, Frank Kush Field. ASU is expected to win again but is hoping to meet expectations this time.
The Sun Devils were hampered by 101 penalty yards against the BYU Cougars last week. ASU took a 27-17 hit to the loss column. QB Jayden Daniels had a memorable game, but not in the way you want to be remembered: besides failing to produce a single touchdown, he threw two interceptions.
Meanwhile, a win for Colorado just wasn’t in the stars last week as the team never even grasped a temporary lead. They ended up on the wrong side of a painful 30 to nothing walloping at the Minnesota Golden Gophers’ hands. Colorado was down 20 to nothing at the end of the third quarter, which was just too much to recover from.
This next matchup looks promising for ASU, who are favored by a full 14 points. They may be expected to win, but bettors beware: they are 0-2 against the spread when favored.
The losses put the Sun Devils at 2-1 and the Buffaloes at a reciprocal 1-2. A couple offensive stats to keep in the back of your head while watching: ASU is 164th worst in the nation in passing touchdowns, with only two on the season. Colorado has experienced some struggles of their own as they are stumbling into the game with the 242nd fewest passing yards per game in the nation, having accrued only 91 on average. It’s possible one of these Achilles’ heels will wind up tripping the losing team up.
