Arizona/Arizona State under 55
Everyone seems to be focusing on how bad these two defenses are (and they are both bad). However, the offenses are even worse. Arizona has only been able to score more than their opponents average ppg allowed three times all season (and one of those games was agianst UTEP). ASU has been able to do it in 3 games also (I did not include NAU and Utah St), and if you exclude the Oregon game, they were able to score .5 point more than Cal allows and 1 point more than Stanford allows.
Arizona has been running the ball well lately and I look for them to try and do so against ASU. I believe both teams will be able to run the football and hopefully use up the clock.
In addition, at home this season, only Cal was able to score their season average vs ASU (not even USC was able to do it).
U of A is averaging a little more than 15 ppg and should be hard pressed to match that here. Hopefully ASU doesn't go crazy on offense like they did against Oregon and put up a lot of points.
