The Arizona State Sun Devils play host to the Arizona Wildcats in a PAC 12 showdown on Saturday from Mountain America Stadium. The Wildcats are having one of their best seasons in recent memory, coming in with an 8-3 record. On the other side though, it has been a rough season for their in-state rivals, as Arizona State only has three wins themselves, though would love to spoil Arizona's season. Arizona won last season, which snapped a five-game winning streak for the Sun Devils, as the Wildcats look to replicate that 2022 success on the road for this one.

Arizona has been one of the better stories in college football this season, having won five in a row heading into the regular season finale, with three of those coming against likely bowl-bound teams. Last weekend saw them dominate Utah at home and while an in-state rivalry is sure to even the playing field slightly, they still expect to dominate in this one. Playing away from home has been a little more difficult for this group, where they have a 3-2 record, but considering those two losses came to USC and the other in the season-opener, that isn't likely to be a concern in this one. After winning last year, there's little doubt that they'll be leaning on that confidence as well when they head into Saturday's rematch.
It shouldn't come as a surprise that the success has come in line with them becoming healthier as the season has gone on. They only have one injury as they head into this one and with that being a back up running back, the offense should continue to move the ball just fine in this one.
Arizona's offense has come a long way to become one of the better units in the PAC 12 and should have their way moving the ball against the Sun Devils in this one. The passing attack ranks 21st nationally and has a massive advantage against a secondary that ranks near the bottom of not only the conference, but the PAC 12 as a whole. Noah Fifita (18 touchdowns, 4 interceptions) has been exceptional under center and with a plethora of weapons at his disposal, the Wildcats won't miss a beat in this one. Jacob Manu (91 tackles) leads the way on the defensive side and the more his name is called, the better the Wildcats will be expected to do.
