It's gut check time for the Sun Devils.

We kick off the new Speak of the Devils with a candid and thorough review of ASU's crushing loss at USC. We look at what went wrong (and what little went right) and how to fix it.

Next up, we hit the recruiting trail with Ralph Amsden of Rivals.com for an expert look at the Sun Devils' local efforts at the midseason mark.

Following the Sun Devil Stock Report, we are joined by a true legend: Eric Allen. The Rose Bowl champion and six-time Pro Bowl cornerback examines ASU's issues in the secondary (among other areas), what they must do to bounce back, and how they fit in a fluid Pac-12 South picture.

Then it's a look forward. First off, House of Sparky editor Kaelen Jones hits the film room and breaks down the resurgent UCLA Bruins' strengths and weaknesses. We cap it off with our in-depth preview and predictions.
