ASU Opens As 1 1/2 Point Favorite

at SDS versus the visiting Iowa Hawkeyes this Saturday evening.

Seems to be a strangley assinine line for this game. Iowa isn't Northwestern...and I seriously doubt the heat will matter than much for a night game.

I would snag the points since I think Iowa makes the Devils 2-1 but I really think ASU will make a showing this time unlike last year in Iowa City.

I'd stay away from this game only because Iowa is a huge question mark. Is ASU going to get the Hawkeye team that squeaked out a win against Iowa St? Or is Ferentz and co. going to overwhelm Koetter's O again? Too tough to call but I'd bet ASU covering if I had to.

 

[AZCB34]

Am I completely over-rating Iowa in my mind? Seems like nobody is talking them up at all and then we get this line...what am I missing?

I think ASU AD made a mistake not grabbing the chance to an ABC televised game. My guess is the Iowa AD would have like for the game to ben ABC too.

I was pretty negative about our chances this year, but ASU looked pretty damn good last week. If the O-line opens holes like it did last week, and protect Walter, and if the defense plays with the intensity that it did last week, I predict an ASU win. Having said this, this is probably the big game this team always loses. If we do lose, I will be majorly pissed we didn't have the game at 1:00....

Which is why I don't bet on football

Jeez, ASU just pummelled Iowa. But now comes Pac10 play. Now it gets interesting. Anyone think they can play USC 5-0?

Friggen ESPN/USA today poll still has ASU UNRANKED!! With Iowa still in the top 25..... :roll:

AP has ASU #22 and Iowa unranked.

That's because they've all turned in their ballots and are drunk before ASU plays.

The only thing worse than ASU not being rated in that poll is that they still have Iowa at 23?

ASU has an off week before they play USC. If ASU is 5-0 they'll be ranked in the top 15. That would be a huge game!

SC has to play California the week before ASU.

That would be a HUGE game. Man oh man that would be solid.

I am thinking Koetter has really gotten his guys ready this year. I love it.
