Will Arizona’s Territorial Cup losing streak come to an end Friday? Vegas think so.

The Wildcats have opened as four-point favorites against rival ASU, according to DraftKings Sportsbook. The game will kick off Friday 1 p.m. MST on FS1.

Arizona is favored in the series for the first time since 2017, when the Wildcats were two-point road favorites but lost 42-30 in Tempe. That defeat marked the first of five consecutive Territorial Cup losses for Arizona.

The UA’s last win over ASU was in 2016, when it was a one-point underdog and won 56-35.
