Odds and Trends
Stanford may have upset Oregon a week ago, but the oddsmakers are not giving the Cardinal respect in this road game. Stanford is a double-digit underdog in Tempe and the betting action is clearly on the home team, causing the spread to rise a few points since the opening. This is normal as the public loves to bet favorites and Arizona State is statistically the better team.
Can’t Slow Down the Sun Devils
Arizona State is an offensive juggernaut. QB Jayden Daniels has led Arizona State to an undefeated Pac-12 record to this point. Now Daniels will go up against a Stanford defense that allowed over 440 yards against Oregon. Daniels will look to exploit a hobbling secondary and connect with his favorite target, Ricky Pearsall. This offense is not all about the pass, however, since they average 5.5 yards per carry. Stanford will have to keep up on offense if they have hope of winning this game or covering the spread.
Stanford vs Arizona State Football Prediction and Pick
The well-coached Cardinal team is tough to beat. They are 5-1-1 ATS in the last seven games on the road and the last seven games in the conference. Since the Sun Devils are just 2-14 ATS in the last 16 games as a favorite, the Cardinal may be a tempting underdog to take. However, they have penalty problems and there is going to be some letdown after the big win against Oregon. Arizona State is the much better team, but the side is not the best bet in this game. The over is 25-8-1 in Cardinal last 34 games as a road underdog and this will be a high-scoring affair.
