Arizona State Sun Devils vs TCU Horned Frogs Prediction

TCU holds the defensive edge, allowing 71.8 points per game compared to 78.5 for Arizona State, and the Horned Frogs also own a rebounding advantage. While both teams score at a similar rate, TCU’s ability to protect the paint with David Punch and control tempo through Brock Harding will be decisive. Arizona State has struggled defensively in conference play, and TCU’s balanced scoring will exploit those mistakes. Final Score Prediction: TCU Horned Frogs win and cover ATS, 76-68.
