How 6-8 Brock Osweiler can do what no road QB has in three years -- win in Eugene
If Osweiler, who has completed two-thirds of his passes so far this season, is to pick apart an Oregon D that ranks 16th in the nation in completion percentage allowed and 20th nationally in passer rating allowed, he'll need to get the ball out before the Ducks' pack of blitzers get to him.



Only a handful of environments in college football are as intimidating as Autzen Stadium on a Saturday night. The deafening noise, the Ducks' relentless tempo and their speed in all three phases of the game have been too much for anyone to handle in the past three years. The only way the Sun Devils storm out of Eugene with a victory this weekend is if their anomaly of a quarterback functions at his highest level. He must shed contact and unblocked defenders on occasion. He must scan and see the blitzes coming his way and thwart those efforts by getting the ball out of his hands. And most importantly, he must use his compact and efficient delivery to throw accurately for four quarters.



That might seem like a tall order, but the Sun Devils' Paul Bunyan QB has shown that he's capable of measuring up well.
