There aren’t a ton of Big 12 teams getting a ton of respect right now, but it seems like a safe bet to expect the Arizona State Sun Devils will join the Texas Tech Red Raiders in representing the Big 12 as one of the handful of teams in the conference to be in the college football top 25 rankings.
And as for the reason that Arizona State has earned a spot in the top 25 following Week 5?
Well, the Sun Devils just took down the TCU Horned Frogs. Right now, Arizona State is 4-1 on the season, with wins over Northern Arizona, Texas State, Baylor, and now TCU.
