Colorado is led by a Heisman Trophy contender in Shedeur Sanders. The junior quarterback has been outstanding in his first season at the FBS level, and nearly guided Colorado to a monumental comeback last week against USC. He enters this matchup with 1,781 passing yards, 15 TD passes, two interceptions and two rushing TDs.
The Buffs also have a plethora of options at wide receiver for Sanders to spread the ball around to. Last week, true freshman Omarion Miller caught seven passes for 196 yards and a touchdown. He joins veterans Xavier Weaver (41 catches, 490 yards, 2 TDs) and Jimmy Horn Jr. (34 receptions, 327 yards, 4 TDs) as Sanders’ top targets. See which team to pick at SportsLine. 
The Tempe desert and Mountain America Stadium can be a difficult place to play for opposing teams. The Sun Devils have covered the point spread in two straight games, and should have extra motivation with Coach Prime bringing the national spotlight to their home field. ASU has dropped four straight, but has shown signs of improvement over the last two weeks. 
Junior running back Cameron Skattebo has been effective out of the backfield for Arizona State. He enters this matchup with 318 rushing yards and four touchdowns, and 14 catches for 228 yards and a TD. He will be facing a Colorado defense that gives up 184.2 rushing yards per game. See which team to back at SportsLine.
