Arizona State Football Bowl Projections: Odds For Sun Devils’ 2025-26 Bowl Game
As the calendar flips forward towards December, the Arizona State Sun Devils enter the home stretch on fire, with Kenny Dillingham’s team picking up their eighth win of 2025 in Boulder on Saturday.
The Sun Devils’ latest conquest came in a 42-17 road rout of CU, securing ASU’s third consecutive victory and leaving a glimmer of a shot at the Big 12 championship game with a week left in the regular season. This week, ASU hosts in-state rival Arizona in the latest installment of the Territorial Cup on Friday evening, looking to earn their ninth win of 2025.
BetArizona.com, as part of our Arizona sports betting coverage, has updated our running Sun Devils’ postseason odds.

After the Sun Devils’ latest victory over the Buffaloes, it seems like ASU’s postseason is bound to wind up in Sin City, with the leading contenders to land Kenny Dillingham’s team being the SRS Distribution Las Vegas Bowl (+180) and San Diego’s DirecTV Holiday Bowl (+275).
Outside of the two west coast contests, keep an eye on ASU bowl game hotspots like El Paso’s Tony The Tiger Sun Bowl (+410) and San Antonio’s Alamo Bowl (+1200) as potential landing spots for the Devils this year.
For now, what seems far more likely is for the Sun Devils to make the team’s return to Las Vegas or San Diego as a potential landing spot for Dillingham and company this bowl season, barring a season finale loss against the Wildcats in Tempe on Friday evening.

Arizona State Bowl History Since 2017
Year | Bowl | Result |
2024 | CFP Quarterfinals (Peach Bowl) | Loss, 39-31 vs. Texas |
2021 | Las Vegas Bowl | Loss, 20-13 vs. Wisconsin |
2019 | Sun Bowl | Win, 20-14 vs. Florida State |

Looking at ASU’s postseason history, the Sun Devils have been frequent visitors to El Paso, Las Vegas and San Diego. The program’s most recent trip to Phoenix’s other bowl game besides the Fiesta Bowl was in 2015, when then head coach Todd Graham finished off a 6-7 campaign with a 43-42 loss to West Virginia in what was called the Cactus Bowl at the time.
The Devils’ last trip to El Paso was when Herm Edwards was the team’s coach in 2019, with ASU beating Florida State, 20-14. The Sun Devils played in the 2021 Las Vegas Bowl, falling to Wisconsin, 20-13. Looking back, the Tempe university’s last trip across Interstate 8 to San Diego was in 2013 when ASU lost to Texas Tech, 37-23, capping a 10-4 season on a sour note.
Sun Devils fans don’t have to turn back the clock nearly as far to find the school’s one and only appearance in the CFP, with ASU falling to Texas in last year’s Peach Bowl (which was a CFP quarterfinal site), 39-31, finishing off an 11-3 campaign in Tempe.
