Arizona State vs. Kansas: Assessing the 5.5-Point Spread in London
Analysis updated September 18, 2026 at 5:39 AM CDT
The Sun Devils headed to London earlier than Kansas, but that travel difference alone doesn't justify backing them at SPF's -5.5.
Different travel schedules, no clear edge
Arizona State departed for London after its 48-20 loss at Texas A&M on September 12; Kansas flew out Tuesday. Front Office Sports, a sports business publication, reported those travel plans ahead of Saturday's inaugural Union Jack Classic at Wembley Stadium. The timing doesn't establish how either team will play or support a six-point winning margin for the Sun Devils.
Kansas is the designated home team, but this game takes place in London. Its home label shouldn't be treated as the usual campus advantage when assessing SPF's Kansas +5.5 or +170 moneyline.
Betting decision: Pass
SPF makes Arizona State the favorite at -205, but current starter, injury and team-performance information is too limited to judge whether that price offers value. That same limitation doesn't make Kansas a bargain. Pass on both sides and the 50.5 total; there's no supported scoring projection to justify an Over or Under wager.
