What to watch for when Arizona battles ASU for the Territorial Cup

It’s time for the big one.

The Territorial Cup is up for grabs, and the Arizona Wildcats haven’t been able to carry it off the field since 2016. Laying claim to college football’s oldest rivalry trophy would be extra sweet for Arizona this season, since it would also signal the end to its program-record 11-game losing streak.

Arizona (0-4) and ASU (0-2) are both winless heading into the 94th game of this series, which the UA leads 49-43-1 but where the Wildcats have only won three times in the past 10 meetings.

Here’s what to look for when the Duel in the Desert goes down on Friday night at Arizona Stadium:
