ASU continues to rise in AP Top 25 poll after win over Arizona

The ASU Sun Devils found themselves at No. 12 in The Associated Press' Top 25 Poll released on Sunday.

The Arizona State Sun Devils moved up to No. 12 in The Associated Press’ Top 25 Poll released Sunday.

Last week, the Sun Devils came in at No. 14 following their victory over then-No. 14 BYU.

The slight bump comes after ASU’s dominate Territorial Cup win over the Arizona Wildcats that secured a spot in the Big 12 Championship.

Running back Cam Skattebo was once again a key figurehead in the rout, ripping off 177 yards and three touchdowns on 21 carries. Wide receiver Jordyn Tyson added eight catches for 143 yards and a score.
