ASU 27, Oregon 41

The Sun Devils lose to the Ducks 41-27 tonight in Eugene.  The Devils fall to 5-2 on the season.  ASU looked good early but they just couldn't keep up, the Ducks just wore them down.  Chances are that these 2 teams will meet again later on this season in the first PAC12 Championship game (with Oregon in the drivers seat in the PAC12 North & ASU in the driver's seat in the PAC12 South at this point), unfortunately that game would also probably be in Eugene. 

Observations:
-Oregon was averaging 50.2 points a game so far this year, ASU held them to 41, that's 9 less than their average, I guess that's something isn't it?   
-Oregon just strikes so quickly, you really need to limit your mistakes against them.
-Too many stupid personal foul penalties on the Sun Devils yet again tonight, that is killing them.  
-Vontaze Burfict really hasn't stood out much for ASU since their first game, the stupid mistakes continue too, I'm guessing he's falling down the draft charts. 
-Brook Osweiler played well for the most part, especially early (29 of 46, 291 yards, 2 TD's)
-This was the game to beat Oregon with RB LaMichael James was out with an injury.
-Josh Hubner had a nice game punting (8 punts for a 43 yards average, 2 punted out inside the 20)
-The Oregon secondary played well for the most part, they completely shut down Aaron Pfugrad and they seemed to limit ASU to a lot of short underneath stuff (especially late in the game). 
-ESPN Gameday was in Eugene for this game, that makes for some nice publicity for ASU.
-Up next is Colorado in 2 weeks @ Sun Devil Stadium in Tempe, AZ.
