#11 Arizona State (10-2) vs. #17 Texas (9-3)
Quite an intriguing little matchup, even if neither team is all that impressive - Arizona State is an 8-4 level team that caught a few breaks, while Texas has much higher standards as of late, and still has that horrible pass defense. And really, that's the crux of the matchup between the two teams. Texas is probably the better overall team, but the way the teams match up favors Arizona State to the extreme. Both teams have great quarterbacks, but Texas's pass defense is the MUCH worse of the two, and Texas's late-game hero, Jamaal Charles, will be facing a rush defense that finished just outside the top ten. I'll give the Sun Devils the nod here, if only because of the severe favoritism the statistics have for them, but I won't call for it to be much more than a squeaker of a win.
My Pick: Arizona State
Confidence: 1
