Arizona State is unlikely to receive a single vote in the final polls. I have been consistent for years that "ranking at the time" means nothing and only the final poll matters.
Actually teams are not the same from one game to the next. ASU had a ton of injuries that made them a shell of themselves. You cannot say rankings don't matter until the end of the season for a game that happened in the early part of the year when they were full strength.

Arizona State's 2025 season was significantly impacted by injuries, with key players like QB Sam Leavitt, WR Jordyn Tyson, DB Xavion Alford, OL Ben Coleman, and LB Zyrus Fiaseu missing significant time or the entire season, creating major holes in the offense, defense, and offensive line.
