Great win Cats!

FUCK ASU!

Great fucking win. Love it. In their house. I hope every UA fan in Tempe goes to that shitty bar tonight and orders ice water.

Longhorned wrote:Arizona will set the tone at tip-off, when Ayton allows his 6'7" opponent to beat him to the ball, taking Ayton's jump-ball record to 0-26 on the season.

From the first defensive possession, Arizona will be in chasing rather than tagging mode, running after the man with the ball through open lanes to the basket and desperately lunging to close out late on open 3 point shooters.

Swish. Swish swish swish swish. Swish!

The ASU crowd will be going nuts, their yellow wigs bouncing as they slap themselves silly with their own body fat. Facing a set zone defense after each ASU make, Arizona will be all hesitation with anemic passes around the perimeter, hoisting contested 3's, and forcing cross-court passes that get picked off by ASU, with breakaway run downcourt and SLAM!.

Whistle! Miller takes his second timeout early. It's hard to even hear in the huddle. Since his starters didn't come to play, he goes deep to his bench, which changes the game just enough to get some surprise stops and a Pinder circus-reverse scoop-hook ("How did that go in?") to bring ASU's lead down to single digits.

In the second half, Arizona's starters come out with intensity, challenging on defense and capitalizing in transition off of stops. But with seemingly a single gust of yellow wind, ASU will nail several 3-pointers, including Justice from far beyond the arc as he runs back on defense with his "I'm a shitwad" facial tick. There will be a banked 3-pointer as well. And Arizona will run out of time-outs as the game gets out of reach again.

After a little more patent Arizona too-little, too-late effort, the embarrassment will be staved off. And that will be the best thing that happens all night.

ASU by 8.
Wrong from the opening tip.

Ayton is now 1-25.

I'm breaking out the Laphroig in celebration, not in misery.

On 1290 Woodman said a group of fans were going after the game to sing Bear Down Arizona outside.

So all the antics that go down at the stupid curtain and Hurley can be Hurley, but our cheerleader can't use the megaphone and call out a name (w/o cursing)! Our society is going downhill, but quick :cry:

not sure if the official espn one needs a login or specific isp, but here it is: http://www.espn.com/watch/player?id=3273431" target="_blank
I wish there was a button to select quality, but I don't see one, and espn streams always go to a shit bitrate for me.

on youtube I found this, but not very good quality: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JYMOj_Gw9CI" target="_blank
It's long past time to bring this back to the court, let's do it with a small update:
