The
Red Wolves and Ducks will be one of the featured games on opening night on Sept
1st, 2012 on national television.
ESPN
apparently loves the style of both teams and thinks the matchup will be worth
watching.
Oregon
Ducks and-Arkansas State Red Wolves will be broadcasted on ESPN. It’s a late
kickoff. But with those two offenses it’s got to be worth staying up to watch.
Arkansas
State’s Gus Malzahn will debut his coaching tenure with the Red Wolves for the
first time, the defending Sun Belt Conference champions, at defending Pac-12
and Rose Bowl champion Oregon at 10:30 p.m. on ESPN. Malzahn was the offensive
coordinator of the Auburn team that defeated Oregon in the 2011 Tostitos BCS
National Championship.
Both
teams had a successful record last season, and both have great offenses, this
will be a game to watch late at night on ESPN. A Sun Belt champion up against a
BCS PAC-12 champion.
Oregon
finished 12-2 overall and ranked No. 4 in the country, following a 45-38
victory against Wisconsin in the Rose Bowl. ASU ended 2011 with a GoDaddy.com
Bowl appearance and 10-3 record.
ASU
head coach Gus Malzahn knows all about Oregon and their ducks. Coach Malzahn
will not bringing the tigers to town this time around, he’s going to battle with some red wolves. So
those ducks better not get caught sleeping in the dark, because those red
wolves will eat them up.
