Arizona State’s final two games are a nice change of pace after the rough patch it just went through, losing three of four games against Pac-12 contenders.

The Sun Devils will kick off this two-game stretch with a road game against Oregon State and this one might be closer than expected because crazy things can happen in Corvallis, especially if this is a #Pac12AfterDark special.

Herm Edwards’ team bounces back here thanks to a big game from Jayden Daniels, holding off a late surge from Oregon State.

Final Score: Arizona State 30, Oregon State 24 (7-4, 4-4)

After getting back into the win column against Oregon State, the Sun Devils will carry that momentum over into a rivalry battle against Arizona which is also led by a new coach.

Jedd Fisch is probably happy he wasn’t around to witness Arizona State’s slaughter of Kevin Sumlin’s Arizona team a year ago to end the season, 70-7, but he’ll want revenge regardless. His team hasn’t forgotten that loss, but they just don’t have the pieces to do something about it.

Arizona State blows rival Arizona out yet again to finish the season on a high note.

Final Score: Arizona 21, Arizona State 44 (8-4, 5-4)
