Despite a good record with a winning mark in the Pac-12 Conference, the Arizona State Sun Devils have problems. ASU has a minuscule chance on the bracketology charts to make the NCAA Tournament. Arizona State would likely have to run the College basketball lines regular season table. And then make a big run in the Pac-12 Conference tournament. This week brings the potential for fireworks and an upgrade in those ratings. Most important of all, ASU has a chance to act on some serious hate. Arizona State will travel to Tucson to face the rival Arizona Wildcats.
