It was the best of times, it was the worst of times.
The Arizona State Sun Devils were flying high after the first half of Sunday night's game at Wells Fargo Arena, having taken a punch from a soon-to-be-top 20 Oregon Ducks team and responding back with one of their own.
The story was much different 20 minutes later.
Using a more aggressive and assertive offensive attack, Oregon (18-4, 7-2 Pac-12) enforced its will with ease in the second half and cruised to a 91-74 win.
"They really separated themselves tonight was with their athletic ability and length," said head coach Bobby Hurley.
