1. Arizona State goes 3-0 with Utah upset

Have I lost my mind? Arizona State ending the month with a perfect record while beating one of the best teams in the nation and one of the Pac-12’s last hopes to get into the College Football Playoff? Absolutely.

The Sun Devils will beat Washington State at home in their first game of October and carry that momentum over into a road game against the Utes. That might seem like an unwinnable game for such a young team like Arizona State, but it has already gone on the road to take down a couple of ranked opponents, so hostile environments don’t faze these guys.

Eno Benjamin will be playing his best football of the season and Jayden Daniels’ confidence will continue to rise. This team is coming together at the right time and it’ll lead to an unbelievable month that will push them into the top-15 nationally.

Next. Ranking college football's top 50 fanbases. dark

Arizona State will approach that top-10 ranking and that means the Sun Devils will truly be in the College Football Playoff race by the end of the season. Yes, you read that correctly, Arizona State will be pushing for a playoff spot.
