Last season’s selection show had the Sun Devils on the edge of their seat to see if they would get a national seed. This season, Arizona State will also await their future next Sunday as a possible chance to host comes around.
As of Monday after their series win over Cal, ASU’s RPI sits at 28. A number that stands a bit high compared to most hosts in the past.
Here’s a look at the average RPI of hosts from last season:
Average RPI of hosts in 2018: 8.5
Lowest RPI of a host in 2018: 17 (13th seed Arkansas)
However, different aspects will be considered for the chance to host.
