Live scores, highlights and updates from the Arizona State vs. Arizona football game

The Arizona Wildcats are hoping to patch up the holes in a defense that has allowed an average of 36.82 points per contest. Arizona and the Arizona State Sun Devils will face off in a Pac-12 battle at 10 p.m. ET on Saturday at Sun Devil Stadium, Frank Kush Field. Arizona is limping into the game on a six-game losing streak.

The oddsmakers predicted a rough matchup for the Wildcats last week, and boy were they were right. They suffered a grim 35-7 defeat to the Utah Utes. Arizona was down 28 to nothing at the end of the third quarter, which was just too much to recover from.

Meanwhile, it was a close one, but ASU sidestepped the Oregon Ducks for a 31-28 win. ASU QB Jayden Daniels was slinging it as he passed for 408 yards and three TDs on 32 attempts. Daniels' 81-yard touchdown toss to WR Brandon Aiyuk in the fourth quarter made for one of the most memorable moments of the night.

Arizona State's victory lifted them to 6-5 while Arizona's defeat dropped them down to 4-7. A pair of defensive stats to keep in the back of your head while watching: ASU is 16th worst in the nation in passing yards allowed per game, with 273.9 on average. The Wildcats have had an even harder time: they are stumbling into the matchup with the third most passing yards allowed per game in the nation, having given up 306.7 on average. Look for both offensives to try attacking early to give their own defense a break.
