Podcast: Reviewing ASU's 52-24 win against Oregon State - a podcast by Sun Devil Source

In the latest episode of the Sun Devil Source Report Podcast, publisher Chris Karpman and host Rob Werner are joined by staff reporter Jack Harris as they analyze Arizona State's 52-24 victory over the Oregon State Beavers.

In analyzing the Sun Devils' (3-2, 1-1 Pac-12) first Pac-12 victory of 2018, and the first under head coach Herm Edwards, they begin the show by reviewing some of the game's most critical plays that allowed ASU to break it open against Oregon State (1-3, 0-2 Pac-12).

Sophomore running back Eno Benjamin set the program single-game rushing record with his 312 yards on Saturday to go along with four total touchdowns. Benjamin's 300-plus yard performance led to his earning of Pac-12 Offensive Player of the Week. How did the overall blocking contribute to the sophomore's big night? What does 48 rushing attempts from ASU mean as the season progresses?

What can fans take away from senior quarterback Manny Wilkins' play against the Beavers? The 6-foot-3, 200-pound senior from Novato, California, went 14-for-25 for 162 yards, three touchdowns, and no interceptions while failing to connect on a couple deep passes.

The Sun Devils struggled mightily to contain Beavers' freshman running back Jermar Jefferson, who tallied 254 yards and two touchdowns on 31 carries. Why couldn't ASU limit the Oregon State running game and how concerning was it for the program moving forward?

ASU's defense was able to generate 11 tackles for loss including five sacks and forced three fumbles, while recovering one. How did Danny Gonzales' unit fair overall against an inferior Oregon State team?

The crew provide a review of how the Pac-12 did in Week 5, with updates on how their picks for conference games are going. Those picks are presented each week on the premium edition of the Sun Devil Source Report Podcast which is published each Thursday.

They conclude with a short segment on ASU men's basketball, including the new commitment of Alonzo Verge, and what the starting lineup could look like when Bobby Hurley's team takes on Cal State Fullerton on Nov. 6, in the team's season-opener.
