The last four years of the Dennis Erickson era saw Arizona State win just 21 games (average of 5.3 wins per season) while also failing to crest the break even point. Todd Graham, much to the chagrin of Pitt fans, stepped in for Erickson last year and guided the Sun Devils to 7-5 regular season record and a 62-28 thrashing of Navy in the Fight Hunger Bowl. Graham welcomes back the core of last season's squad, including quarterback Taylor Kelly and defensive end/linebacker Carl Bradford; however, the latest projections are not all that favorable for Arizona State. The Sun Devils are a seventh pick to win the Pac 12 at +1100 odds, a fourth pick to win the Pac 12 South at +410 odds, and their 2013 regular season win total is set at eight wins with the Under being favored at -135 odds ($135 wins $100). The latest BCS Championship Odds have ASU listed at +20000 odds to win the National Championship.
College football games of the year from the LVH and Golden Nugget look more favorably on the Sun Devils, though. Arizona State is listed as an underdog against Stanford, Notre Dame, and UCLA, but it is favored in home games against Wisconsin, USC, Washington, Oregon State, and Arizona.
