I’ll be honest. This isn’t the story I expected to write.
Around this time yesterday, I was preparing to give you – the reader – a different argument. Fully expecting Arizona State to waltz through Princeton – a Quadrant 4 opponent with five losses, including a 51-point drubbing courtesy of top-ranked Duke – I was ready to explain why the Sun Devils were disrespected in a presumable 10-2 start to the season.
But as the old saying goes, that’s why you play the games.
The 67-66 loss was ASU’s third in five games. Yes, that’s the reality – even with the Sun Devils defeating No.
