Arizona State Football Schedule What To Know: Who do the Sun Devils miss from the Pac-12 slate?

In the past it would be a bad break to miss Oregon State from the Pac-12 slate. Arizona State will take that this year – the Beavers should be even stronger – but not getting to play Stanford hurts. Unless there’s a quick turnaround, that was a very, very winnable game.

2023 College Football Rankings 1-133: First Look

Arizona State Football Schedule What Really Matters

There’s time to ease into the slate. Sort of.

The first four games are at home, but Oklahoma State, Fresno State, and the Pac-12 opener against USC are hardly going to be easy. The Sun Devils have to pull off one of those. That start means there are only four games on the road, and one of them is a 50/50 date with Cal.

There’s a week off to gear up before going on a second half run of three road games in four weeks.

Arizona State Football Schedule What To Know: What does it all really mean?

It’s not awful as long as Arizona State can do more to own home.

The program is in a rebuild, but that doesn’t mean it can’t pull off a win or two like it did against Washington last season. With just the one road game before October 21st, there’s a chance to bank enough wins to make a bowl season a possibility.

However, at Washington, Washington State, at Utah, at UCLA, Oregon, and that’s all before closing out against Arizona, The team had better have at least four wins before the midseason or there’s a huge problem.

Why Arizona State Will Win

Five straight. 70-7 in 2002. 38-15 last year. Arizona State has a hold on the Territorial Cup and now gets a potentially demoralized Arizona team.

Of course the Wildcats will be jacked for this – they still have to hear about 70-7 – but they went from beating UCLA and having a bowl game there on the table, to now being ensured of a losing season after a disappointing day against Washington State.

The Cat D wasn’t bad against Wazzu, but it hasn’t been a rock, especially against the run. Arizona State has to get grinding right away and control the tempo and the clock.

Last week was a rough 31-7 loss to Oregon State, but the Sun Devils averaged over six yards per carry and should come close to five yards per pop in this. The passing attack was great against Colorado and UCLA, there should be a good balance, and the Arizona defense doesn’t generate the pressure to stop any of it.

But …

Why Arizona Will Win

Now this becomes Arizona’s bowl game.

Arizona State is a program that’s about to flip around fast over the offseason with a whole lot of changes. Arizona has everything in place and keeps on improving, and this is a next step forward.

No, the defense isn’t anything great, but the offense is about to go off. Washington State’s strong defense was able to win by forcing four takeaways – all picks – but Arizona State doesn’t take the ball away. It hasn’t come up with a turnover in two weeks, and it forced multiple takeaways just twice all year.

The secondary allowed 200 yards or more in every Pac-12 game except the loss to UCLA, and that’s because the Bruins ripped off over 400 yards on the ground. So …

Week 13 College Football Schedule, Game Previews

What’s Going To Happen

The Arizona offense will go off.

Jayden de Laura will get over the rough day against Wazzu and rip off well over 300 yards without the big mistakes.

Arizona State will keep up with the ground game, but it won’t be enough. The offense will flinch with a few third down misfires, and the Wildcat offense will take advantage of every chance.

Why Oregon State Will Win

The Beavers keep on rolling along.

They’re already bowl eligible, and the game that really matters is next week against Oregon, but they’re in the hunt for a ten-win season if they win the next two games and the bowl.

The offense hasn’t been anything special, but it’s functional. It doesn’t make a ton of mistakes – the turnover problem over the first half of the season cleared up nicely – and the running game is averaging close to five yards per carry.

There doesn’t have to be anything fancy here.

Keep the chains moving against the second-worst defense in America on third downs, assume everyone will get time to work against a solid offensive line that should handle the non-existent ASU pass rush, and continue to bend-without-a-lot-of-breaking on defense.

Bowl Projections

Why Arizona State Will Win

It’s been a disastrous season, but it can end strong with a win in the final home game before going to Arizona for the rivalry showdown.

The team is still pushing. The offense wasn’t awful in the loss to Washington State, the passing attack rocked in the win over Colorado and was strong in the loss to UCLA, and the yards will be there against the Oregon State D.

Can the offense be ultra-efficient through the air? It’s asking for way too much out of quarterbacks Emory Jones and Trenton Bourguet, but the team is 3-1 when connecting on 72% of its passes and 0-6 when it doesn’t

Oregon State’s pass defense can be thrown on, but …

Schedules, Predictions CollegeNFL

What’s Going To Happen

Utah is the only team to get to 70% through the air on the Beavers.

Oregon State will be methodical. The run defense will be a rock, the offense won’t make enough mistakes to matter – the Sun Devil D doesn’t force takeaways – and it’ll get past a few big scoring drives from the home side to get out with a good win.

UCLA vs Arizona State Game Preview

Why UCLA Will Win

Here comes the running game.

Dorian Thompson-Robinson is throwing well, the offense is explosive and balanced, and the defense has stepped up large in key moments. But in this it’s going to be about Zach Charbonnet and the ground attack taking over.

Arizona State’s defense is miserable on third downs and there’s nothing happening whatsoever in the backfield from the line. Thompson-Robinson will have as much time as he needs to work, and the offensive front will dominate.

Arizona State hasn’t been too awful against the run overall, but assume UCLA has 200 yards getting off the bus and controls the game from there.

Breaking down the CFP Top 25 rankings

Why Arizona State Will Win

Arizona State can wing it around a bit.

Trenton Bourguet stepped in and saw some time in the win over Washington, and last week against Colorado he ripped off 435 yards and three scores with a slew of big downfield plays.

UCLA’s pass defense isn’t bad, but it’s good for giving up at least 200 yards a game at a minimum. The Sun Devils are going to keep on firing to keep up, and …

Schedules, Predictions CollegeNFL

What’s Going To Happen

UCLA will be too balanced as the game goes on.

Arizona State will be more than just plucky. It’ll get up early, the passing game will be strong, and it’ll be a big fight for the Bruins for about 40 minutes.

And then the running game will take over, the third down conversions and long drives will be there, and the Pac-12 title hopes will keep marching on.

Arizona State vs Colorado Game Preview

Why Arizona State Will Win

The Sun Devils have played far better over the last few weeks since Herm Edwards was fired.

They were able to shock Washington, they pushed USC a bit, and last week the defense held firm against Stanford until late in the heartbreaking 15-14 loss.

What’s been better? The passing game has been sharper – both Emory Jones and Trenton Bourguet have been hitting their throws – the run defense has been a lot better, and the team has managed to be more competitive.

Colorado is still having massive problems defensively. This is the game for the Sun Devils to get going on the ground and own the tempo.

The Buffs are dead last in the nation in third down stops partly because their second-to-last in college football against the run, but …

NFL Expert Picks, Week 8

Why Colorado Will Win

Colorado is far better when it can chill on the turnovers.

It found a way to beat Cal even with three giveaways, and it lost to Oregon State 42-9 partly because of four turnovers. Arizona State’s defense doesn’t force enough mistakes and doesn’t come up with enough big plays.

That’s because the defensive front doesn’t generate any pressure and doesn’t come up with enough plays behind the line.

The run D has to hold up. Arizona State doesn’t pound for a ton of big yards on the ground – it has yet to get past 170 against any FBS team. Colorado has be able to force third-and-longs and get that D off the field.

– Game Previews, Predictions CollegeNFL

What’s Going To Happen

Both teams are in the midst of awful seasons. Colorado is a little bit worse.

The Sun Devils have major problems against teams that can throw. Colorado will come up with at least 200 yards.

The Buffaloes have major problems against teams that can run. Arizona State will come up with at least 150 yards.

It’ll be a good, competitive game with Colorado putting up a good fight for a half, but the Arizona State offense will start to be more and more effective as the game goes on.
