ASU is about to embark on a new journey as a Big 12 program when they clash against Texas Tech on Saturday.
Thank you for reading this post, don't forget to subscribe!Arizona State is 3-0 to begin the season and could improve to 4-0 with a road win in Lubbock, Texas. If the program does manage to win, it would be the first time it would be 4-0 since 2016, the first time 4-0 over four consecutive FBS programs since 2007 and, most importantly, the first win in Big 12 Conference play ever.
The Sun Devils crushed Wyoming 48-7, beat Mississippi State 30-23 and were just able to nick a 31-28 win over Texas State last time out. With them playing against Texas State on a Thursday, Sept. 12, Arizona State will have had eight days to recuperate and reenergize between then and the matchup against Texas Tech.
For the Red Raiders, Texas Tech is 2-1. It took Texas Tech overtime to beat FCS program Abilene Christian 52-51 in their season opener on Aug. 31. They were then blown out by Washington State 37-16 on Sept. 7 before they demolished in-state rival North Texas 66-21 last Saturday.
