All the talk this week has been around Texas Tech quarterback Patrick Mahomes, but the Sun Devil defense is confident ahead of Saturday’s matchup.
When Arizona State’s defense lines up against Texas Tech’s offense, it’ll feature a classic strength-on-strength, or at least a pride-on-pride matchup.
Spend five seconds around ASU and head coach Todd Graham, and you know how much pride he puts in the way his defense attacks and flies around the field. On the other side of the field, The Red Raiders and Kliff Kingsbury have made a living with an Air Raid offense.
And while ASU’s defense struggled a season ago, giving up the most passing yards in the Pac-12, the Texas Tech offense thrived.
