Arizona State is coming into this game with a 10-5 record this season and they have been playing much better since the conference schedule started. Their last loss was at a neutral location against a very good Northwestern team but they have won their last 4 straight games since then with all 4 of those wins coming against conference opponents and 2 of those wins coming on the road as well. They are starting to round into shape as a team at the right time and they have a very good coach that is guiding them in the right direction this season as they do have some quality wins in the conference already. They are going up against a Washington team that is 9-6 this season but they have not been playing well in their recent games. They were very strong in the non-conference schedule but now they have lost 3 of their last 4 games as they are not playing well against conference opponents, going 1-3 in the Pac-12 to start the season. They are coming off of a win at home in their last game against Oregon State but Oregon State is also one of the weaker teams in the conference this season. Washington also has a loss against Oregon at home and they are going to struggle in this game with Arizona State getting better and better. Arizona State is flying under the radar right now but they are good enough to win this game outright so this is just too many points even if Washington wins. Arizona State will cover the spread in this game.
