The Washington State Cougars and Arizona State Sun Devils face off on Saturday in a college football showdown at Sun Devil Stadium.

Arizona State Just Can’t Finish Games

Arizona State sits with only one win on the season and the biggest reason as of late has been their inability to close out games. Against California they lost 24-21, against Colorado they lost 27-24, and in the last game against Washington, they lost 15-7. The defense sure was impressive in the last game against Washington, but the offense couldn’t get anything going. Quarterback Trenton Bourguet  completed 26 of his 47 passes for 196 yards, zero touchdowns, and one interception. Arizona State is averaging 17 points while their defense is giving up 26.4 points per game.

Washington State All of Sudden Struggling? 

Washington State won their first four games of the season and there was all kinds of buzz surrounding this team, but now they have lost three straight games and there are questions about what this team actually is. There is no shame in losing to UCLA and Oregon, but two games ago they lost to Arizona 44-6. Washington State is averaging 32.9 points while their defense is giving up 29.9 points per game. The offense is ranked 36th, but the defense is ranked 100th.

Shane’s Free Pick

Arizona State can win this game outright, but we will take the points to be safe. Arizona State is has been competitive as of late and their offense is going to step up. I also think their defense is going to have a big game here, and that is going to be the difference here. Arizona State will get a big game from Bourguet, and they will keep it close. Back Arizona State against the spread. I am also throwing a few dollars on Arizona State on the money line. 

Shane’s Pick Arizona State +5.5
