Recent Performances


The Arizona State Sun Devils have been on a remarkable winning streak, showcasing their prowess on both offense and defense. In their last game against the Kansas State Wildcats, they secured a solid victory with a score of 24-14. This win was backed by an aggressive defense that managed two interceptions and one forced fumble, highlighting their ability to disrupt the opposition's gameplay effectively.


Moreover, quarterback Sam Leavitt's performance has been nothing short of stellar. With a passing rating of 158.82 against Kansas State and completing 21 out of 34 attempts for 275 yards and three touchdowns, Leavitt has proven to be a crucial asset for the Sun Devils. The team's rushing game also contributed significantly, with Cam Skattebo leading the charge with 73 yards on 25 attempts.


Looking Ahead


As we turn our attention to the upcoming clash at Mountain America Stadium in Tempe, it's clear that Arizona State’s dynamic offense will be key in breaking through BYU’s defenses. However, maintaining discipline will also be critical; penalties have occasionally hindered ASU's momentum in past games.


The venue itself could play a significant role in this matchup. Playing at home provides an advantage for ASU not only due to familiar surroundings but also thanks to the support from local fans which can often act as an extra player on the field.


With both teams having demonstrated strong offensive capabilities and resilience under pressure, this match is poised to be closely contested from start to finish.


Fans can catch all the action live on ESPN (satellite channel 206) this Saturday at Mountain America Stadium in Tempe starting at 3:30 PM ET.
