66 Days Until Arizona State Kickoff: Who Has Worn Number?

The 2025 college football season is now under 60 days from kicking off during the 'week zero' slate - Arizona State is just a week behind with kickoff set for August 30.

It has been quite overstated that this is the most anticipated Sun Devil team in many years - if not decades - after reaching the College Football Playoff for the first time.

Kenny Dillingham is entering year three as head coach of the program on the rise with historic levels of continuity, as 17 starters return from the previous rendition of Sun Devil football - while also succeeding in retaining the entire coaching staff in the process.

The Arizona State program has come a massive way in just two short years - and opening kickoff against Northern Arizona seems to be an opportunity to make a major statement about the 2025 team being even better than the 2024 version.

The culture in Tempe has never been better either - as evidenced by the sheer volume of returning players and coaches. The built-in continuity should serve Dillingham, star QB Sam Leavitt, and the remainder of the roster very well as the season progresses.

Now, we take a look at every player to wear number 66 in the history of Arizona State football in honor of the 66 day mark until the opening game - the years played are in parentheses.
