A year ago, Arizona State was playing its first ever Big 12 conference game. It came on the road in Texas, and turned into a tough loss to the Red Raiders. It would mark one of just two conference losses all year, en route to a conference title win.
Now, Arizona State is on the road in Texas again for their first Big 12 game of the year. A road matchup with Baylor figures to be just as challenging as Texas Tech was a year ago, especially with the Bears' high-powered offense. The Sun Devils have been uneven through three non-conference games thus far, but a 1-0 start to conference play would be a huge boost.
