I can see one of two results:

ASU's superior athleticism and talent on offense and defense wins out, and Stanford gets blown out (2+ TD loss)
Stanford capitalizes on ASU's lack of discipline (turnovers and penalties) and pulls out a narrow win

I think the first is much more likely than the second (I don't think we are a good match-up for ASU), and the spread reflects that.  But, I have hope that somehow the second comes to pass and Shaw pulls another rabbit out his hat.

BC

+1.

And the spread is up to 13 points, isn't it?

Bad matchup for Stanford (and an angry opponent/coaching staff that might want to run it up on Sanctimonious Stanford . . . but perhaps might also commit some costly PFs).
