Second-ranked Oregon (6-0, 3-0 Pac-12) has raced through its first six games without hitting much of a speed bump, using its quick-strike offense to put most opponents away by halftime. Arizona State (5-1, 3-0) is off to a strong start under coach Todd Graham, winning five games, nearly pulling off a sixth victory. The Pac-12 division leaders get a chance to see just how good they really are today ( 6 p.m. on ESPN) in what should be an offensive showcase at sold-out and blacked-out Sun Devil Stadium in Tempe, Ariz. Oregon, the national runner-up two years ago, is defending Rose Bowl champion for the first time in 95 years. – AP
