BYU Looks to Respond to First Loss

Last week, we saw the BYU Cougars lose for the first time in the 2024 college football season. They were beaten 17-13 at home by the Kansas Jayhawks, who took advantage of a BYU muffed punt to grab the lead late in the second half. BYU's offense has stalled in recent weeks, averaging 17.5 points per game against Utah and Kansas. Against an explosive Arizona State team, BYU is going to have to do a better job of putting points on the board, or their College Football Playoff hopes could disappear completely.

Can Arizona State Help Big 12 Title Chances?

Arizona State has a golden opportunity in front of them going into Saturday. A win over BYU would move both teams to 6-2 in conference play for the season, with Arizona State earning the head-to-head advantage over the Cougars. That would mean Arizona State would control its own destiny to make the Big 12 title game going into the final week of the regular season. With Arizona State on at three-game winning streak and boasting an undefeated home record this year, the Sun Devils have to be brimming with confidence heading into this big game in the Big 12.
