Where Oregon’s defense ranks nationally in key statistics after win over ASU

A look at where the Oregon Ducks defense ranks nationally in some key statistics after the win over the ASU Sun Devils.

Had it not been for a couple of late scores from Arizona State long after the starters had been pulled from the game for the Oregon Ducks, the stats from this contest could have looked pretty unbelievable.

As it stands, Oregon only gave up 13 points to the Sun Devils, zero of which came in the first half of the game. At this point of the season, it’s become pretty clear that the Ducks have one of the better defenses in the nation, ranking near the top of the list in some key statistics that we routinely point toward in order to determine overall success.

Heading into a pivotal rivalry game against the Oregon State Beavers, here’s where they now stand in those key statistics.
