Arizona State Football Schedule What Really Matters

There’s time to ease into the slate. Sort of.

The first four games are at home, but Oklahoma State, Fresno State, and the Pac-12 opener against USC are hardly going to be easy. The Sun Devils have to pull off one of those. That start means there are only four games on the road, and one of them is a 50/50 date with Cal.

There’s a week off to gear up before going on a second half run of three road games in four weeks.

Arizona State Football Schedule What To Know: What does it all really mean?

It’s not awful as long as Arizona State can do more to own home.

The program is in a rebuild, but that doesn’t mean it can’t pull off a win or two like it did against Washington last season. With just the one road game before October 21st, there’s a chance to bank enough wins to make a bowl season a possibility.

However, at Washington, Washington State, at Utah, at UCLA, Oregon, and that’s all before closing out against Arizona, The team had better have at least four wins before the midseason or there’s a huge problem.
