Washington trip just got a lot more interesting.

108-99. Jeebus. Beat the Beavs and they exceed their win total of last year and have a share of first. Still the only team with two road wins.

WSU's Josh Hawkinson on the fans: "They came out in full force tonight and were rowdy."

Attendance was 3,500. Oh, Pac-12.

The studio crew interviewed Kent after the game, and KO's question was about the attendance "Do you think you can get like 2000-2500 more fans the next game?" and Kent stated that he hoped so cause 22000 students live within proximity of the arena.

I always find it amazing that since 1985 there has been one thing common in PAC attendance. That people show up to see Arizona, both in Tucson and everywhere else.

What was the stat from the broadcast last night? We've led Pac-12 attendance for like 30 years straight? I know a lot of that has to do with the program being a consistent winner, but their also a culture of support that other schools should look to cultivate. There's far less to do in Pullman than there is in Tucson. Going to the basketball games should be what everyone wants to do on Thursday and Saturday nights.

Still don't know why they have such a big arena in Pullman. Larger capacity than UW.

Beautiful, I just love it. Their "fans" are jumping ship pretty fast. They're sticking with the asu argument of "you only have 1 championship" or the "you don't have any "PAC12" tournament championships"

they're even trying to compare Az basketball to CU football.

5 straight over those loud mouth wannabes, gonna be 6 next month.

I would think Washington would absolutely need this game at home vs the Ducks rivals. Oregon is way down this year. What's behind the Huskie downturn this year? Earlier they looked as good as the LA schools looked bad.

They are up 65-59 now and fighting hard.....on a sidenote, how do you think Upshaw is going to do against us at UW? Will we be able to keep him in check? At times, the Dude looks like a Block Monster!

So what's he going to do with those extra 6 inches vs. Upshaw

.....good point but we often seem to draw opponents best games so I wouldn't be surprised to see him to have a huge game.....not worried so much as curious as it's our only game vs UW.....I hate this screwed up scheduling we now have since our expansion.....we should play each team twice each year in the Pac!

I am intrigued by the Oregon State/UCLA match tomorrow. You have one team that has a decent amount of talent but doesn't play like a team and has generally tuned their coach out versus their near opposite in a team with unheralded talent but that plays like a team and executes what their coach wants. It's a shame this game is being played simultaneously with our game, but it will be fantastically interesting to see how this one turns out.

Peace out talented guys that don't play like a team and have tuned their coach out.

Cal's playing so poorly I don't think it's going to matter.

I mean being down a ton at home to ASU basically says everything that needs to be said.

This. Cal started the season 10-1...and has since gone 1-7(if they lose tonight) with home losses to asu, Washington state and cal state Bakersfield

Cal isn't even trying out there. Pretty obvious they only bothered to prepare for us.

This could end up being the biggest win in ASU history.

13:02 of the first half scoreless.

If Martin wasn't such a young coach, I'd suspect him of tanking this one.

Because it's true. Only one team is circled on Cal's calendar this week.

And it's an approach to basketball coaching in this conference that could be described as carpetbagging.

Cal has played like this for like seven or eight games in a row. Don't care about (and drop) like seven in a row with a plan for turning it on for game number eight?

Cal should be able to beat ASU at home with absolutely no prep, hungover and resting their three best players. Cal being down 34-13 to ASU at the half to me doesn't signify a team that didn't prepare; it signifies a team that is (and has been) falling apart.

But we will know soon enough.

Lol, was thinking the same thing Katz......as much as I hate to see any ASSU success, anything that helps keep Herbie in his job is ok with me (except any upset over us....ugggh, last year still annoys me).

The funny thing is, no matter how much they complain about Herb, they don't deserve a better Coach. What a pathetic program they have.

If you lose to ASU by 35 at home not only are you a terrible coach, but you need to be fired immediately. Didn't Tennessee run this guy out of town? I can see why.

Don't thnk this has anything to do with Arizona. Sun Devils routinely lose on the road as travel partner. This is all about Cal unraveling.

No kidding AZCatGirl! Looks like not only the did the team quit on the game but they had no pride at all!!! Unbelievably terrible loss for Cal.....inexcusable and a lot of this has to be squarely on Cuonzo !artin's shoulders.

Are you paying attention Ivan Rabb?
