The victory made the Sun Devils bowl eligible at 6-5 (5-3 in the Pac-12) while the Beavers (1-10, 0-8) lost their ninth consecutive game. Oregon State will need to defeat Oregon in the Civil War to avoid finishing winless in the conference for the second time in three years.

The Sun Devils dominated the first half in taking a 30-7 lead. Wilkins threw for two touchdowns and Richard ran for two short scores as Arizona State collected touchdowns on four of its first six possessions.

Arizona State was also awarded a safety en route to a 30-0 lead when Oregon State quarterback Darell Garretson was flagged for intentional grounding on a throw from his end zone.

The Beavers scored with 59 seconds left in the second quarter when Ryan Nall ran in from a yard out. The key play on the drive was receiver Trevon Bradford's 36-yard run on a reverse, giving Oregon State a first down at the 7-yard line.

Otherwise, it was all Arizona State in the first half as the Sun Devils piled up 318 yards while holding the Beavers to 105 yards, 79 of them on the scoring drive.
