*8* TOTAL DOMINATION on OVER Arizona State/Washington State.

The Washington State Cougars have quietly been one of the best teams in the PAC12 this year, with wins over Oregon and Arizona, and a heartbreaking two-point loss to Stanford. They are tied with Oregon for second place in the PAC12 North with a 5-3 conference record. They host Arizona State this week, and we should expect a high scoring game between two teams that like to "air it out".

Here are my keys to the game:

1. Previous History - The Sun Devils gave up 61 points to Oregon in an overtime loss last week, and they rank 96th nationally with a defense that allowed over 31 points per game. The last two meetings between these two teams has seen a combined 159 points scored.

2. Mike Bercovici - Arizona State's quarterback threw for 398 yards and five TDs in a loss to Oregon last week. That's the second time in three weeks he's thrown for at least five TDs.

3. X-Factor - The over is 15-6 in Sun Devils last 21 road games vs. a team with a winning home record.
