Arizona vs Arizona State Prediction
The current betting odds have Arizona listed as a 1.5 point favorite in this game according to Draftkings Sportsbook. Arizona has looked good in their games this season with their 8-3 record overall and their 5-3 conference record which has them in the top half of the Big 12. They haven't been a great road team though with their 2-2 road record this season. Meanwhile, Arizona State has looked good in their games this season with their 8-3 record overall and their 6-2 conference record which has them right near the top of the Big 12. They have looked great on their home field too with their 6-1 home record this season. Arizona State has been rolling in their games lately with 3 wins in a row now, but they haven't had a tough schedule in that stretch and have scraped by in some of their games. They are off a 42-17 win over Colorado in their last one, but Colorado has been one of the worst teams in the Big 12 all year and this ASU offense just hasn't been the same with their starting QB out. Arizona has also been rolling in their games lately with 4 wins in a row now, and they have pulled off some impressive wins during that time. They picked up a road win over Cincinnati who has looked really good all year, and now they are off a 42-17 win over Baylor in their last one. That offense has been rolling in their games, putting up a ton of points with Fifita playing great, and this game is going to be decided by the QB play. Arizona State may have the home advantage here, but Arizona has looked like the better team lately and they have the more reliable QB to lean on. The best way to place a bet here is on Arizona to cover the spread in this game.
