One thing is for certain this season and that is that the Arizona State Sun Devils will play to win the game. The Sun Devils hired master motivator Herm Edwards, who has prowled the studio set for ESPN for the past nine years as opposed to a football sideline. However, Edwards swears that he has not lost a step. The question remains to be seen whether Edwards’ coaching prowess can extend to the college game, but many have lost virtual fortunes betting against the effervescent Edwards.

The Sun Devils have seen so much turmoil on offense in recent years that just having some stability may be the first part of winning the battle. Edwards specializes in a short passing attack and promises to bring that system to Arizona State. The offense is now an experienced unit, which is led by veteran quarterback Manny Wilkins.

Edwards has always had a reputation as a stalwart coach on the defensive side of the ball. As a result, one can count on the Sun Devils to tighten things up on defense this season. This season, the Sun Devils will be switching to the unusual 3-3-5 defensive scheme. The defense, which was markedly mediocre last season, will definitely be improved this year. Arizona State should know where it stands early in the season after its home matchup with Michigan State. This team may take many by surprise this season and may make some noise in what figures to be a down year in the Pac-12 conference.
