It’s official: Arizona State is going bowling. The Sun Devils announced Sunday that they’ll appear in the 2018 Las Vegas Bowl against Fresno State.
Bowl eligibility was clinched in Week 11 when ASU took down UCLA on Senior Day. Since then, the Sun Devils are 1-1, and most recently, defeated Arizona in the Territorial Cup game.
The Sun Devils’ were selected to the Vegas Bowl because of Cal’s 23-13 loss to Stanford. This made ASU the No. 6 team in the Pac-12, which made it a perfect fit for the game.
But Arizona State’s opponent is no slouch.
