COLLEGE BASKETBALL — February 21
ARIZONA STATE at ARIZONA
(Arizona State -1.5) — [private] If nothing else, the recent sweep of the Oregon teams (in which they gave up just 97 total points) should give the Sun Devils the shot of confidence they need to go after some payback from the awful experience in Tempe on January 23, when they hit only 30% from the field. Arizona, which has lacked discipline a little too much (43.7% shooting, 14.1 turnovers) can have its share of problems with teams that take things slower and more deliberate, and ASU does fit the same description along those lines as the Oregon State squad that just came into the McKale Center and chalked up a 63-55 win. Nic Wise was one-for-11 in that game, and he has been bricking for the last four games (27% FG’s).
