Sun Devils Shock Big 12: Underdogs to Champions... and Back Again? Despite being the reigning Big 12 champions and returning the second-most production in the country, Arizona State football is being completely overlooked heading into 2025, and host Richie Bradshaw has something to say about it. In this fiery episode of Locked On Sun Devils, Bradshaw dives into why the national media, sportsbooks, and analysts are once again disrespecting the Sun Devils. He highlights the leadership of Sam Leavitt, one of the top quarterbacks in the conference, and the return of playmakers like Jordyn Tyson, breaking down how ASU's offensive core is more dangerous than people realize. On defense, Bradshaw details the underrated unit that helped carry the team to last year’s title run — and why that same group is being ignored in preseason projections. With favorable matchups, elite returning talent, and a wide-open conference, ASU could realistically be favored in every game on its schedule. So why are the Sun Devils behind teams like Utah, Kansas State, and Texas Tech in the eyes of Vegas and voters? Bradshaw makes the case that Arizona State isn’t just back — they never left. And if you’re not buying ASU now, you’re going to regret it later. Tune in for a no-holds-barred breakdown of why ASU could be on the path to a College Football Playoff berth and back-to-back Big 12 titles.
