When was the last time both Arizona State and Arizona were ranked in the same AP poll?
The last time both Arizona State and Arizona were ranked in the same AP poll was the preseason poll in 2015 when the Wildcats were 22nd and the Sun Devils were 15th.
Arizona was last ranked (No. 20) during Week 3 of the 2024 season. Arizona State was ranked as high as No. 11 this season, where the Sun Devils appeared on the preseason poll, but after a Week 9 loss vs. Houston, the Sun Devils have not appeared in the AP Poll since, despite being winners of their past three games.
The 2025 Territorial Cup between ASU and Arizona kicks off from Mountain America Stadium at 7 p.m. MST on 98.7 and the Arizona Sports app. Watch the game on FOX.
