Similar to Arizona, the last team I reviewed, Arizona State is a very tough team to make predictions about. After a solid but not outstanding 7-6 season in 2017, the Sun Devils fired Todd Graham after 6 seasons as the Head Coach. Many people, myself included, weren’t very surprised by this as Graham had a tendency to perform well below expectations and had been on the hot seat for a while.
Then the Sun Devils hired...HERM EDWARDS?!!!! That’s right, Arizona State hired Herm Edwards, a guy who was last seen coaching a football team for the Kansas City Chiefs in 2009!
