We hope everyone had the chance to enjoy their Thanksgiving meals and time with their loved ones because Black Friday is upon us and it's time to plop ourselves in front of the television with leftovers for the biggest game of the year.
Arizona State and Arizona will play in the 99th edition of the Territorial Cup with a lot more than just a trophy and bragging rights on the line. The No. 20 Sun Devils and No. 25 Wildcats will play in the first ranked-on-ranked matchup of the rivalry since 2014.
For ASU, its Big 12 title defense hopes rely on a victory and some outside help from conference foes on Saturday while Arizona wants to cap off one of its most successful seasons since head coach Jedd Fisch left in 2023.
Arizona State has won seven of the last ten matchups, including a five-game win streak from 2017-21. ASU reclaimed the cup last season 49-7 after Arizona had won two consecutive in 2022 and 2023.
How to watch No. 20 Arizona State vs. No. 25 Arizona
The Sun Devils and Wildcats will duel in the desert at Mountain America Stadium. Kickoff is set for 7pm MST with a sellout crowd expected to rock the house in Tempe.
Fans not in attendance can catch the game on their local FOX station or stream it on the Fox Sports website or app with a cable login. Cord cutters can stream the game on Fubo (subscription required), Sling TV (subscription required) or YouTube TV (subscription required).
Also, Tim Healey and Doug Franz will be in the booth on the Sun Devil Radio Network on 98.7 FM Arizona Sports. You can also check out Blaze Radio Online for student-led coverage of the game.
Betting information
The Sun Devils enter the contest as surprising 1.5 point home dogs (-104), according to Fanduel Sportsbook, but that could factor in the fact that Arizona has won four straight games entering Friday.
The over/under is set at 47.5 with ASU given +106 odds to retain the Territorial Cup outright.
