(3%) TEXAS STATE. Arizona State may be favored but I've got Texas State winning this game. The Bobcats improved to 2-0 SU with a 49-10 blowout of UTSA. The defense was solid and the offense racked up more than 500 yards. They have an outside shot at running the table this year and they obviously need this game to keep those hopes alive. The Bobcats, who will travel to Tempe to face the Sun Devils next year, are going to be fired up at a chance to host a nationally televised stand-alone ESPN game. It'll mark the first time that Texas State will play on ESPN at UFCU Stadium since 2020, when the Bobcats hosted SMU. The Sun Devils are just 2-9 ATS their last 11 on the road. Facing a talented and very experienced Texas State team, those numbers will get worse before they get better. *good at -1 or better
