Episode 15: Bye week update - a podcast by Sun Devil Source

Following a disappointing loss in Eugene against an underwhelming Oregon squad, Arizona State enters its bye week with the goals of improving its overall team health and regrouping in time for the final stretch of the season.

After a dismal defensive performance from the Sun Devils, 'Sun Devil Source Report' hosts Kerry Crowley and Chris Karpman break down the prolific offensive numbers ASU's recent opponents have put up against the Sun Devils and discuss why turnover margin is the best indicator of a team's overall success in the Pac-12.

Chris and Kerry contextualize the sacks and tackles for loss ASU's defense are still racking up by examining why the the Sun Devils have failed to generate turnovers and why that's the ultimate key to defensive success within Todd Graham's scheme.

After breaking down the Sun Devils' defensive output, Chris and Kerry discuss the challenges ASU's offense faced against an Oregon defense it still should have dominated without much of its key personnel.

Kerry and Chris then finish the episode with discussions of larger themes that have emerged from this season, such as where the Sun Devils' quarterback situation stands in Manny Wilkins' first year as a starter, why a sixth win and bowl practices are essential for the overall health of ASU's program, and how the Pac-12 has evolved over the course of the year.
