Up again
Following Saturday night’s win against UNLV, Arizona State football has moved up once again in the latest AP Poll. The Sun Devils check in at 19th heading into Week 3, where they’ll head to Provo to face now No. 23 BYU.
Arizona State is currently the third highest ranked out of the Pac-12. Oregon made the biggest leap of any team in the poll. The Ducks jumped from No. 12 to No. 4 following their win in Columbus over Ohio State. Despite being idle, UCLA moved up three spots to No. 13.
Utah and USC both fell out of the rankings. Utah lost to BYU, and USC got dominated by a Stanford team that didn’t look very good in Week 1 versus Kansas State. USC still received 39 votes, Stanford got 10, Utah had nine, and well, Arizona got six votes after a beatdown from San Diego State. It seems like a voter might be mistaking Arizona for Arizona State, unfortunately.
