Through 3 Quarters

The Arizona State Sun Devils were expected to win this one, and so far that's exactly how it's playing out. Three quarters in and their offense has really been able to impose its will, dominating the Arizona Wildcats 63-7 three quarters in.

ASU has been led by RB Rachaad White, who so far has rushed for three TDs and 133 yards on ten carries. White has put himself on the highlight reel with a 93-yard TD scramble in the second quarter. Speaking of playmakers, DB D.J. Taylor went all the way with a kickoff return for touchdown in the first quarter.

Arizona has been riding high on the performance of RB Michael Wiley, who has punched in one rushing touchdown.

If the game were over at this point, it would be the Wildcats' worst margin of defeat yet this year.

What to Know

The Arizona State Sun Devils are 4-1 against the Arizona Wildcats since November of 2015, and they'll have a chance to extend that success Friday. The Sun Devils and Arizona will face off in a Pac-12 battle at 7 p.m. ET at Arizona Stadium. ASU is the favorite here -- although they were the favorites in their last game, too, so the odds might count for a little less.

ASU came within a touchdown against the UCLA Bruins last week, but they wound up with a 25-18 loss. A silver lining for ASU was the play of RB DeaMonte Trayanum, who picked up 108 yards on the ground on 15 carries.

Meanwhile, Arizona came up short against the Colorado Buffaloes last week, falling 24-13. Despite the loss, the Wildcats had strong showings from RB Michael Wiley, who picked up 126 yards on the ground on nine carries, and RB Gary Brightwell, who rushed for one TD and 113 yards on 20 carries. Brightwell's performance made up for a slower matchup against UCLA two weeks ago.

The Sun Devils are now 0-2 while Arizona sits at 0-4. A couple defensive numbers to keep in mind before kickoff: ASU ranks fourth in the nation when it comes to passing touchdowns allowed, with only three on the season. Less enviably, the Wildcats are third worst in the nation in rushing yards allowed per game, with 273.5 on average.
