Another win, another climb up the national polls for Todd Graham and the ASU Sun Devils (8-2, 6-1).

After Saturday night’s convincing 30-17 victory over the Oregon State Beavers, ASU finds itself ranked No. 17 in the BCS Standings, No. 19 in the AP Top 25, No. 22 in the USA Today Coaches Poll and No. 21 in the Harris Poll.

ASU is one of five Pac-12 teams — Oregon (No. 5), Stanford (No. 10), UCLA (No. 14) and USC (No. 23) — ranked in the AP Top 25 poll.

The Sun Devils are currently on a five-game win streak — their longest win streak since the 2007 campaign. That season, ASU raced out to an 8-0 record before finishing 10-3 after a loss to Texas in the Pacific Life Holiday Bowl.

Next up for Graham’s squad is a date with UCLA (Nov. 23) at the Rose Bowl. If the Sun Devils win, they will represent the Pac-12 South in the conference title game on Dec. 7.
