00:00Huge Big 12 weekend marks, you know, between not only Colorado and Kansas, but now BYU

00:12looking to bounce back after its opening loss of the season.

00:16Arizona State, an 8-2 football team, now ranked 21st in the CFP Top 25 against a BYU team

00:23that fell eight spots to number 14.

00:27BYU still the highest ranked Big 12 team in the CFP Top 25, but you know, the Oddsmakers

00:34have not loved the Cougars all year, and they're catching three and a half points on the road

00:39in Tempe on Saturday afternoon.

00:42How do you break down this Big 12 bash?

00:45Speaking of Oddsmakers not loving a team, they have undervalued Arizona State a lot

00:49this year as well.

00:50Oh, by the way, if you don't know the name Kenny Dillingham, the head coach of Arizona

00:53State, you're going to start to know him real soon, because the turnaround that he's done

00:56with that Sun Devils program has been nothing short of remarkable in putting them on the

01:00map this year.

01:02Look, you have BYU coming off this big loss, right, in Provo and going out on the road

01:07here.

01:08Let me just give you a trend.

01:09When you have two ranked teams playing each other, Arizona 21st, BYU 13th, the worst ranked

01:16home favorite in this case, in the last 30 matchups, is 21-9 ATS.

01:22If it's game eight or later in the season, they are 15-4, that's 79% against the spread

01:27since 2019.

01:28Give me the Sun Devils here, who still have a shot to play in the Big 12 championship

01:33game if they win this one, and it's a big one at home for the Sun Devils here.

01:39I'll lay the three and a half.

01:40I mean, you know, if you're really sort of worried about it, buy a half point or even

01:44pay the extra juice on the money line and go to minus 146, but Arizona State walks out

01:48of here a winner.
