The current betting odds have Stanford listed as a 1.5 point favorite in this game according to Draftkings Sportsbook. Stanford hasn't been having a great season with their losing record overall at 10-13 and they have even been struggling in their PAC-12 games with a 4-8 conference record. They are only 7-4 in their home games this season too and they enter this game off a loss in their last one, but they have actually been playing well over the last 2 weeks playing some of their best games all year. Arizona State has been having a much better season with their 16-8 record overall but they have also been struggling in the PAC-12 as they are only 7-6 in their conference games. They also haven't been great in road games with just a 4-4 road record and they also enter this game off a loss. Arizona State has had a much better season overall than Stanford has been having but Arizona State has been falling apart over the last few weeks while Stanford has been heading in the opposite direction with their play. Stanford also has the home advantage here and is more likely to bounce back on their home court here with the way Arizona State has been struggling lately. The best way to place a bet here is on Stanford to cover the spread in this game.

“It was a real battle — two teams were pretty desperate to win. I think the first eight minutes of the second half cost us. They built a lead and we couldn’t overcome it and take the lead back even though guys out there were fighting like heck and scrambling and trying to make plays. We just didn’t defend. Tough pill to swallow but I appreciated the effort of the guys tonight.” - Bobby Hurley after his team’s loss against Oregon in their last game.

"We do strive to play our best and there's a fine line between playing loose and confident while competing. We do have a group of guys that have bought into the message and I do feel we're trending up." - Jerod Haase on his team this season.
