The offensive balance is impressive.
The running game might not have been great against UCLA, and the passing attack didn’t do much against USC, but on the year, the Sun Devils have rushed for 682 yards and thrown for 638.

It’s not going to be all that cold for the team from Tempe, but it’s supposed to rain in Corvallis. Arizona State’s O will be just fine.
