Thursday night’s Week 1 slate will cap off with an Arizona State vs. Southern Utah matchup in the desert as the Sun Devils look to kick off the Kenny Dillingham era on a high note.

Unfortunately, they learned this week that they would be bowl ineligible this season after a self-imposed one-year ban. That’s not going to stop this program from being competitive, however. Jaden Rashada has been named the starting quarterback and all eyes will be on Tempe on Thursday night.

Southern Utah, on the other hand, was just 5-6 in its first season under DeLane Fitzgerald and the Thunderbirds (great name) are hoping to bounce back.

Here’s everything you need to know about the season-opener in Tempe.
