Arizona State is fresh off their best win of the season knocking off No. 16 Utah at home 27-19 and are now getting ready for a big road test at Cincinnati. The Sun Devils are in the middle of one of the best breakout seasons in college football. After going 3-9 last season, they are now sitting at 5-1 and right in the mix in the Big 12. This weekends game will go a long way in deciding if they are ready to take the next step and be a serious contender in the league. The Bearcats are balanced across the field, having a defense that gives up just over 20 points a game and an offense that’s averaging over 450 yards. But if there is one weakness for them, its against the run. Cinci is giving up the 3rd most yards against the rush in the Big 12. Meanwhile, Arizona State has lived rushing the ball this year with Cam Skattebo, who was again just named the Big 12 Offensive Player of the Week.
