Keys to the game:
Game time temp is still going to be 90 degrees. Add in ASU's likely heavy use of the running game and UW's defensive front better be deep and rotated often. Their overall conditioning will be tested more than any other game so far this year. It would help to sustain some decent drives and keep them off the field more while it is still cooling down. Hope that's not too much to ask.

Jake needs to not only take what the defense gives him, but not fall back into some of his bad play in some prior road games and just take the sack or throw it away when necessary.

Smith needs to go downfield early and often enough to keep their defense honest. You don't want to get into a sweep/screen/short run game conservative mindset.

ASU is sure to have a good sized crowd. Going up against a top 5 team that has struggled in your stadium and the Cardinals suck so they don't have as much competition for the football dollar. You can't get off to as slow of a start as you have been lately. No need to panic if you do, but take that crowd out early.

Petersen had better have figured something out with the kicking game this week. It's not just the missed FG's that could hurt tonight. You can't keep having so many kickoffs going barely past the 20y.

I expect a fight in this one and there will be challenges they haven't faced yet this year, but bottom line is it's time to go out and find a way to come back with a W any way you can.

Not used to seeing the Huskies tackle this poorly. Need to get that straightened out quickly.

They have had issues at times. ASU rolling out looks and plays they haven't seen. They will settle down. Had similar issues at Colorado before they adjusted.
