Thu, Jan 12 Arizona State * - at Tempe, Ariz. 7:30 p.m.
ROOT (FSN)

Gotta win this one, especially with King now off the team.

Beat asu, that'd be a nice weekend.

12-6, 3-3 with 12 games left (7 at home). Not a bad position to be in if you're the Ducks.

i hate to get all cliche on everyone and say this is one of those weekends where we could either sweep or get swept (or split), but that's the state of the pac-12. asu isn't good but we're not exactly a team that forces our will on others, especially on their home floor. losing king hurts them, but tempe has never been kind of to us. arizona is a lot better, but not the arizona of yore, nor even the arizona of last season. they don't really have a true superstar at the moment, they have several guys who can ball (don't get me wrong) but they're beatable.

ducks up 37-35 at half had a 11 pt lead let Asu make a run. Sim with 10, Devoe with 8

Hey, it beats watching the kids play with Chuck E. Cheez!

We win!

Good effort after they got behind four or whatever it was, defense looked pretty good, though ASU might've had something to do with that.

weird listening to ernie comment on the team.

very nice road win. tempe has been a house of horrors for us. we've had more success in tucson the last 10 years, i think, oddly enough.

loved that tony woods hit some shots and was asking for the ball in the second half. we are going to need him to be good next year. not in love with only hauling in one rebound, but i digress.

I was surprised to see Ernie calling the game, I guess he must be okay with Oregon games now. He wasn't that bad of a commentator in my opinion..

As for the game, I really liked that when ASU took the lead that we didn't panic. Knowing how to finish games on the road is a skill that many teams never figure it out, but we did it. Obviously ASU isn't the greatest team, but I'll take a road win in the Pac-12 and be very happy about it. I'm not going to predict the sweep, but man would that be a big step for this team..
