USC Basketball: USC over ASU 62-46

So, the men make it four in a row.

I didn't realize how much ASU has fallen off this season.

I still think the team needs to finish strong in the Pac-10 tournament in order to get to the big dance. They need to go deep...no early exit or they are going to the NIT. Their overall body of work just won't impress the selection committee with a strong performance in the conference tournament.

USC is on the road to Washington finish out the season, so they have their work cut out for them.

Looking a farther down the road...if Vucevic continues to carry the team deep into the conference tourney and into the Big Dance I just don't see how he stays for his final year.

It is hard to know the personality of this team. There are nights where they on fire and then there are nights when they are uninspiring. Definitely a combination of players and coaching. Regardless of how the season ends I don't see Pat Haden replacing Kevin O'Neill...he is an enigma right now.

Hard to see which way this goes in the long run.
