To say it doesn't get any easier for the Arizona State basketball team has never been more true than this week.
Coming off a 91-75 loss at No. 14 Arizona, ASU is back on the road Thursday against No. 3 UCLA, looking to go 19-1 for the first time since 1991-92 when the Bruins started 21-1. As if that wasn't enough, the Sun Devils remain in Los Angeles to play Sunday at USC, now just outside the Associated Press Top 25 after five weeks in the Nos. 22-25 range.
It's the culmination of the most difficult part of the Pac-12 season for ASU (9-9, 2-3), which then is at home for seven of its final 11 conference games.
