Later today at 7:30 P.M. Arizona State will be taking on the #5 ranked Washington Huskies at Husky Stadium.
Washington comes into the game undefeated and just beat one of the best teams in the Pac-12 in Oregon by a final score of 36-33. Their quarterback Michael Penix Jr., is passing for 2,031 yards and 20 touchdowns through 6 games played this season and is currently the favorite to win the Heisman trophy.
Arizona State is coming off of a bye week but their most recent game was a loss to Colorado by a final score of 27-24. Cameron Skattebo has been the team’s best weapon up to this point in the season as he’s rushing for 367 yards and 5 touchdowns up to this point.
This game is going to be a battle between two sides of the ball as Washington’s number two total-ranked offense in the Pac-12 is playing against ASU’s number five total-ranked defense tonight.
The key matchup of tonight’s game will be Rome Odunze battling against Jordan Clark which should be a battle between two of the best players in the Pac-12.

Prediction:
Arizona State: 24 – Washington 49
I believe ASU will have a chance to get a lot of yards of total offense against Washington’s defense as they give up 394.3 a game. But ASU is still a rebuilding team learning how to play a complete game and against a team like Washington, your margin for error is very thin.
I believe with the crowd noise and the way Washington can score on offense, ASU’s offense will be in a tough spot to play clean football as well as stay out of third and longs due to pre-snap penalties and incomplete passes.
