On October 18, 2025, Arizona State, will need to tackle one of the most difficult opponents of the season when Texas Tech, ranked as number 7, visits Tempe. The Red Raiders come in with an undefeated record (6-0) and are the top scoring offense in the Big 12 with 47.5 points per game. In the meantime, the offense of ASU is battered, and the offensive line will have to demonstrate that it can take the pressure.
In terms of match-up, the high-powered offense and pass-rush of Texas Tech will be used to highlight any of the weaknesses. Sam Leavitt (who has thrown 1,039 yards, 8 TDs this season so far, according to the box score) needs to be defended by the offensive line of ASU.
