Latest Preview (Week Recent)

Turnover Troubles Doom Sun Devils

Arizona State committed five turnovers (three interceptions, two lost fumbles) against Arizona, directly leading to 20 unanswered points and a 23-7 loss. Quarterback Jeff Sims, starting for the injured Sam Leavitt, was responsible for all five turnovers, finishing 11-of-25 for 114 yards.

Offensive Struggles and Missed Opportunities

The Sun Devils managed only 214 total yards and were held to 15 yards in the first quarter. Their only touchdown came on a 90-yard drive capped by Sims' 27-yard run, but a missed field goal and inability to sustain drives prevented them from building momentum.

Defensive Resilience Despite Loss

Arizona State's defense forced a fumble and blocked a field goal, keeping the game close at 7-3 halftime. However, the offense's turnovers put the defense in difficult positions, ultimately leading to the loss.

Playoff Hopes Dashed

The loss eliminated Arizona State from Big 12 championship contention, ending their repeat title hopes. The Sun Devils (8-4, 6-3) will now likely play in a lower-tier bowl game after reaching the CFP last season.

Quarterback Uncertainty for Bowl Game

With Sam Leavitt injured and Jeff Sims struggling (3-1 as starter but with five turnovers in this game), Arizona State faces a decision at quarterback for their upcoming bowl game. Sims' performance raises questions about his reliability in high-stakes situations.
