BYU vs Arizona State Pick: Fade Cougars ATS vs Sun Devils 11/23

One week after having their undefeated bubble burst, BYU finds itself as a 3-point road underdog to Arizona State in the NCAA football odds. The over-under is set at 48½ points. Let’s take a look at my college football pick for this Big 12 matchup.

After losing 17-13 to Kansas, BYU fell from No. 6 to No. 14 in the College Football Playoff rankings. Arizona State jumped into the Top 25 for the first time this season. The Sun Devils are coming off a 10-point victory over Kansas State.

Let’s take a look at my betting breakdown of BYU-Arizona State.

3 Things to Know When Betting BYU vs Arizona State

1. How Can Arizona State Make the Big 12 Championship?

You may be surprised to learn that Arizona State still has a chance to make the Big 12 title game. The scenario is a bit complex and the Sun Devils need some help.

Arizona State’s best chance to make the Big 12 championship starts by winning their final two games against BYU and Arizona. The Sun Devils would also benefit by BYU losing their final two games (one of which is of course against Arizona State).

You might be better off pouring yourself a drink than understanding these complex conference championship scenarios in the coming weeks. For now, maybe grab an Arizona State’ futures ticket to win the Big 12 in the NCAA football odds just for funsies.

2. Can BYU Still Make the College Football Playoff?

The sky is not falling for BYU despite the Cougars sustaining the team’s first loss of the season. BYU can not only make it to Arlington with the Big 12 belt on the line, but the Cougars also have a good chance to make the College Football Playoff.

Hey BYU, I know we play each other this week and all but let’s just take a moment to enjoy this and laugh at everyone below us (including our in state rivals) in the rankings after we were picked to finish 13th and last in the conference pic.twitter.com/aACR6RBWyX

The path for BYU is simple: win their final two games against Arizona State and Houston. The Cougars would then need to win the Big 12 title game to punch their ticket to the College Football Playoff, despite falling eight spots in the latest rankings.

3. BYU vs Arizona State Pick: Sun Devils Spoil Cougars’ Dreams

The challenge is I think we may be headed for more of the same for BYU against Arizona State. For weeks, the Cougars were able to pull out incredibly close wins.

It looks like the clock has finally struck midnight for BYU. Arizona State quarterback Sam Leavitt and running back Cam Skattebo is the best duo no one is talking about.

Look for Arizona State to send BYU on its first losing streak of the season and take the Sun Devils to cover ATS at the BetUS Sportsbook.
