The Arizona State Sun Devils hope to regain their shooting touch and avoid their third straight Pac-10 loss tonight when they visit the Oregon Ducks.

The Sun Devils stand a good chance of getting back on track against the Ducks, who are one of the nation’s worst defenses and a school looking to avoid its first 0-10 conference start in 16 years.

The Ducks are allowing opponents to shoot 48.0 percent this season to rank among the worst teams in Division I. They are giving up a conference-worst 51.3 percent in Pac-10 play while allowing an average of 75.9 points.

James Harden, the Pac-10’s leading scorer with 21.9 points per game, was held to four field goals and 15 points for ASU in Saturday’s loss to Washington.

The Ducks have won three straight home games against the Sun Devils, while Arizona State is 4-0-1 ATS in the last five meetings.
