The current betting odds have Arizona State listed as a 3.5 point underdog in this game according to Draftkings Sportsbook. Arizona State won their 1st game of the season at home against a team from the FCS in a game where they looked really good in the 1st half but fell apart in the 2nd half. ASU has made a lot of changes this season with a new head coach and starting QB but now that they have a game under their belt, they will be a lot better in this next home game. Oklahoma State wasn't great in their 1st game of the season, they did win against a team from the FCS but they gave up too many points in that game while their offense didn't do a whole lot. They weren't impressive at all and this is going to be a tough game for them on the road against a team with a lot of hype surrounding them this year. This is going to be a close game all day so take the points with the home team here since they will fight hard to keep this a close game and have the potential to pull off an upset win too. The best way to place a bet here is on Arizona State to cover the spread in this game.

Oklahoma State Arizona State Prediction:  Our NCAAF Pick for Saturday, September 9, 2023 (10:30 pm ET start time) is ASU 23 OK State 20.

“I would say that he earned some stripes. What advantage that gives him with the other ones — the other guys played good also. And I’m being honest with you, yes, I think he earned stripes with the people involved.” - Mike Gundy on Gunnar Gundy after his team’s win against Central Arkansas in their last game. 

“We played a clean game from substitution, but the communication pieces made us run about seven to 10 dead plays of a football. That percentage of 16 to 18% is a dead play, you have no chance to be successful when it’s communication errors.” - Kenny Dillingham after his team’s win against Southern Utah in their last game.
