Please help - Why is Stanford only a 5 point favorite to ASU

[fballfan]

Stanford is rolling right now and Harbaugh is a great coach. Andrew Luck will most likely be the first QB taken in the draft. They crushed a pretty could Arizona team last week. They were up on Oregon 21-3 in the first quarter earlier in the year.

Yes ASU played with USC last weekend but remember USC lost to a terrible Washington team. Stanford only beat Washington State by 7 but WSU scored 21 points in the 4th qtr with Stanford's 2s & 3s in the game.

This line reminds of the Stanford line against UW a few weeks ago which was -7. The score of that game was 41-0.

Maybe I am crazy but Stanford should beat ASU by 3 touchdowns. Thoughts?

Thoughts might be that ASU beat the spread against Oregon at home and they're getting Stanford at home. That ASU lost to USC by just 1 on the road while Stanford only beat them by 2 at home. ASU could be in a pissed-off, near-miss, looking-for-redemption-at-home mode while Stanford could be in road letdown mode coming off nice Arizona win and with rival Cal next on the slate.
