The Spartans head out west to Pac-12 territory after escaping the season opener in East Lansing with a win over Utah State. Arizona State is a school that you have likely seen play only if you are like me and like to stay up for Pac-12 after dark action late into the night on Saturday. They haven’t been in the national spotlight for a while, which is one of the reasons they went out and hired Herm Edwards in the off-season. Here’s what else to know about MSU’s week two opponent…
School: Arizona State University
Nickname: Sun Devils
Conference: Pac-12
Location: Tempe, Arizona
Head Coach: Herman Edwards (1st season)
Record: 1-0 (7-6 in 2017, lost Sun Bowl to NC State)
Mascot: Sparky the Sun Devil
All Time Series: 1-1-0 (Last meeting Arizona State won 20-17 in Tempe)
The Sun Devils kicked off the Herm Edwards era with an easy 49-7 win over UT-San Antonio at home on Saturday.
