The Sun Devils visit the Huskies tonight with the game scheduled to start at 7:30 p.m. Arizona time. ESPN will be televising the game. The Huskies are rated #12 in the country and have a 2-1 record. Their only loss was to Auburn.

The Devils will need to especially slow down the Huskies run game as San Diego State rushed for over 300 yards last week.

Below is a link to a scouting report for the game.

Gambo posted this information about the Sun Devils future PAC 12 schedule so I guess it can be considered good news.

If Devils can beat the spread I’ll be thrilled.

It's a nice evening to watch a football game. I'm hoping for the best.

My prediction: This will be ugly.

I think the ugliness meter would’ve been off the charts if Graham were still here... I could be totally off track, but I just don’t see this team this year, under Herm and Gonzalez and Liken, getting blown out that way.
Washington is way more talented for sure - though, Browning seems to be regressing....
I’d be quite shocked if ASU pulled out a W, even though they have won 11 of the last 12 times these two teams have played.
Washington is still fighting for a potential final four slot... They know if they lose those hopes are gone. Yet, I don’t see a true “ugly” game... More like Washington wins 31 a 14...

Washington is in must win mode. Key for ASU... keep it close and give yourself a chance.

My primary concerns are the Sun Devils have not displayed they are an explosive football team (against a quality opponent) and last week they could not stop the run. It could get ugly as Ouchie says if the Devils have not fixed these problems.

Nice to start the game with a Sun Devil interception.

ASU scores on 4th down after a scare about a fumble on the previous running play.

ASU with no defense. Looks like last year.

Defense gonna have to step it up. Not stopping the run or the pass right now.

Horrible tackling and a 3 yards and a cloud of dust offensive gameplan.

Devils offense is almost as unimaginative as the Cardinals!!! Playing not to lose, usually leads to an ugly loss.

Honestly think they would have lost either way but that 3rd and 6 overturn at the end of the game giving wash a completion and first down was pretty bad. No angle showed both his foot down AND the ball in his hands controlled.

Exactly!!! Total BS call.

It was ruled incomplete & nothing they showed showed made the call “inclusive” to overturn the ruling.

Wow

Every angle showed him control the ball the entire way, and they just needed one shot of his toe inbounds. Honestly, should’ve been called on the firld

Don’t the refs have different angles than us, or do they use the same tv cameras that we see?

Yeah I agree. I felt last weeks ref intrusion was far worse.

I'm glad someone else saw the comparison. I thought about it the whole game. The short passing game is not going to keep defenses honest.
