Quick turnaround for this game for both teams. Texas St crushed UTSA this past weekend. This is not some sort of easy game and given how the 2nd half went, ASU better not think too highly of themselves at 2-0.

ASU -2.5
o/u 58.5

Given the quick turnaround seems like the under would be a serious consideration

I think it is obvious but it should be said…

Sam Leavitt has to have a much better game Thursday than he did this past weekend.

Texas St is ranked 10 spots higher than ASU in the CBS Sports 1 to 134 college football rankings. Dangerous game on a short week with travel

For all the lip service about player safety, I am shocked college is having kids play on a Thursday after playing on Saturday.

I feel the same way about NFL TNF.

The way skatebo runs, he needs the additional couple days off to recover

Coming up on game time. Really hoping to see a solid outing from Leavitt to compliment the running attack. I suspect to start the game Texas St will sell out against the run and force Leavitt to pass.

Also want to see the defense remain aggressive.

Really interesting game for a bunch of reasons

Defense gets the stop. Hearing a pretty strong ASU fan presence at the game

Dysfunctional 3 and out by the offense which included a delay of game penalty coming out of a TV timeout

Oh boy. Another 3 and out forcing a gassed defense back onto the field

They look tired and slow. This could get out of hand if we cannot pressure or cover anyone

Offense answers after giving up the quick TD. Nice drive and Leavitt looked good on that drive

Defense got the stop. Chance for ASU offense to close out the half on a positive note
