Players To Watch:

Arizona State: Running Back – Cam Skattebo – Senior

Skattebo is one of the top running backs in the country this season as he ranks eighth in the country in rushing yards. He is facing a Cyclones rush defense that ranks 15th in the Big 12, look for him to be the key factor if the Sun Devils were to win the Championship in their first season in the conference.

Iowa State: Quarterback – Rocco Becht – Sophomore

Becht has been fantastic this season averaging 251.8 yards per game if the Cyclones were to win their first-ever Big 12 title, he will need to exploit a Sun Devils pass defense that ranks tenth in the Big 12.
