As for the game itself, for the Sun Devils, a win would get them to bowl eligibility, but it would also help them keep pace in the Big 12 title hunt heading into the final month of the season.
Oklahoma State, on the other hand, needs to win this game if they want to have a realistic shot at keeping their 18-year bowling streak alive. A loss would drop the Pokes to 3-6 (0-6 Big 12) and would force them to have to win their final three games just to get to bowl eligibility.
Arizona State is expected to have starting quarterback Sam Leavitt back for this game on Saturday after he missed the Week 8 match up at Cincinnati due to a rib injury suffered vs. Utah in early October.
