Analyzing Past Performances


A look back at Arizona State's recent games reveals a team that's both dynamic and determined. Their victory over Utah with a score of 27-19 highlighted their defensive capabilities, with three interceptions and two sacks contributing significantly to their win. This defensive solidity, combined with an offense that managed to rack up 343 total yards, underscores ASU's balanced approach to the game.


In another impressive outing against Kansas, ASU emerged victorious with a score of 35-31. The game was an offensive showcase, with ASU amassing 485 total yards. Their rushing attack was particularly lethal, accounting for 313 yards and one touchdown on its own. This performance is indicative of ASU's ability to dominate possession and control the pace of the game.


However, it wasn't all smooth sailing for ASU as they faced a setback against Texas Tech in a closely contested match that ended in a 30-22 defeat for the Sun Devils. Despite this loss, there were positive takeaways from the game; notably, Cam Skattebo’s performance stood out as he rushed for 60 yards and scored two touchdowns.
