Arizona State is now just two days away from hosting New Mexico State at Sun Devil Stadium for the season opener. The Devils are favored heavily in this matchup - the line currently sits at ASU -23.5 - but there are still many areas in the program that need to be addressed.

Let’s take a look ASU’s greatest strengths and weaknesses heading into their week one matchup.

Strengths

Health:

During Monday’s practice just four players wore green (non-contact) jerseys and three sat on muscle beach, excluding themselves from tempo drills. This is a huge improvement from last season, and though it won’t stay this way, ASU fans should be extremely confident in most difference-makers being healthy to start week one.
