Randy’s Pick

This is a big letdown spot for the Washington Huskies after their win over Oregon last week. Arizona State has also had an extra week to prepare for this game, and its last two losses were decided by a combined 6 points. Four of Arizona State’s five losses overall were decided by 14 or fewer points. Yes, Washington is the clear better team and Arizona State is poor offensively, which includes being ranked 124th in scoring offense. Still, there are things working in favor of the Sun Devils, and this is a boatload of free points. I’ll take a stab with Arizona State.
