Who Saw This Coming From Arizona?
Most thought Arizona was going to be a little better this season, but not many expected them to have a chance to pick up their ninth win in their last regular season game. In the last game against Utah, Arizona scored 42 points and it was another dominant victory. Quarterback Noah Fifita is having a big season and he completed 23 of his 30 passes for 253 yards, two touchdowns, and zero interceptions. Arizona is averaging 32.1 points while their defense is giving up 20.6 points per game. In this game, if the defense is good, Arizona will be in good shape.

- Arizona has failed to cover the spread in 14 of its last 16 road games in November.
- Each of Arizona's last five November games as a favorite have gone OVER the total points line.
Arizona State’s Offense Has Been the Problem
Arizona State’s offense has been an issue all season and it’s been what has led to their struggles. Last Saturday against Oregon, Arizona State’s offense only managed 13 points and that led to the blowout defeat. Even two games ago in their victory over UCLA, Arizona State only scored 17 points. On the season Arizona State is averaging 17.3 points while their defense is giving up 29.4 points per game. They are averaging only 4.09 points in the first quarter, and if they want any chance in this game, the offense is going to need to get out to a fast start.
Arizona State Betting Trends
- Arizona State has lost nine of its last 10 games against AP-ranked teams.
- Arizona State has failed to cover the spread in each of its last four November games as an underdog against AP-ranked teams.
- Five of Arizona State's last six November games as a home underdog have gone OVER the total points line.
Shane’s Free Pick
This is going to be a blowout victory. Arizona State’s offense is averaging only 17.3 points per game and they aren’t even going to reach that number here. Arizona scored 42 points in the last game and they are going to have no issue running up the score against a terrible Arizona State defense. Quarterback play for the Sun Devils will again let them down. Back Arizona to win this game and cover the spread.
