5 Must-Watch Arizona State Football Games In 2015

Arizona State Cheerleaders — The Arizona State Sun Devils had a great season in 2014, winning 10 games, including a 36-31 win over Duke in the Sun Bowl. Todd Grantham will be looking to take the Sun Devils to the next level in 2015, but it won't be easy without Jaelen Strong and Damarious Randall. Here are the five must-watch games for the Sun Devils in 2015.

5. Saturday, Sept. 5: vs. Texas A&M (Neutral Site)

Mike Bercovici Arizona State — Arizona State's first real test comes in the season's first week with a neutral site matchup against Texas A&M. The Aggies still have a potent offense with Kyle Allen at quarterback and lots of great receivers.

4. Saturday, Oct. 3: at UCLA

Mike Bercovici Arizona State — The Bruins gave the Sun Devils their worst defeat of the 2014 season with a 62-27 thumping. If there were some positives from this blowout, the Sun Devils did gain 626 yards of offense, but they couldn't get out of their own way with turnovers. The Sun Devils will look for revenge this season, this time in the Rose Bowl.

3. Saturday, Sept. 26: vs. USC

Mike Bercovici Arizona State — Last season's win over USC was a complete shock given the final minutes of the game. USC held a nine-point lead with just over three minutes remaining, but the Sun Devils scored 14 unanswered points with a last-second Hail Mary pass securing ASU's 34-32 win. The Trojans will be looking for revenge, but the last time these teams met in Tempe, the Trojans gave up 62 points in an embarrassing loss.

2. Thursday, Oct. 29: vs. Oregon
