They currently have an intense rivalry with each other. Secondly, they have budding rivalries with the California schools. ASU and UofA recruit California intensely. Thirdly, USC and UCLA are about a day's drive from both UofA and ASU. Cal and Stanford can be driven in a day, albeit a big day. There are also direct flights.

There are numerous business ties between Southern California and Arizona, but virtually none between Arizona and Texas with the exception that a very large amount of Mexican grown produce enters the U.S. at Nogales and then heads East on various Interstate highways.

The net result is ASU and UofA types interact a good deal with USC and UCLA folks outside of the college football world, far more than they interact with Tech, TCU and UT folks.
