Three wins in a row has the Arizona State Sun Devils in control of their own destiny.
At 6-4 on the year, Herm Edwards’ football team finishes the 2018 season with road games at Oregon and Arizona. It can win out to reach the Pac-12 Championship game, but as it stands now, the Sun Devils also have put themselves in solid position to use the postseason as a momentum-building exercise heading into their head coach’s second season on the job.
That comes with a bowl game invite.
Scanning respected media outlets across the internet, ASU is more often being picked to land in the El Paso, Texas, Sun Bowl and the Las Vegas Bowl.
