Arizona State returns quite a bit from the 2024 team that was picked to finish in the cellar of the Big XII. What's ahead in 2025? This season they'll be the hunted, rather than the hunted after winning the conference and making a serious run at Texas in the College Football Playoff.

In this episode, Thomas Black & Joshua Nunn discuss Arizona State's roster, the Sun Devils' most important games on the schedule, and their ideas for what outcome we'll all see in the season ahead.
