ASU hoping to get more out of Benjamin, rushing game

One would think Arizona State junior running back Eno Benjamin has had the next game on the schedule circled for awhile. Last season Benjamin ran for a school-record 312 yards against Oregon State.

That has everyone around the program hoping the running game will be more productive when the Sun Devils (5-4, 2-4) and Beavers (4-5, 3-3) square off at 5:30 p.m. Saturday at Reser Stadium. ASu has lost three straight games for the first time under head coach Herm Edwards, while Oregon State is coming off a 19-7 loss to Washington in which its defense scored its only touchdown.
