Arizona State might have the most surprisingly anemic history in men's basketball of any program that you might think is better than it is.

Since I picked Syracuse first, I say everyone else has to pick another team. :D

I almost picked penn st. But thought it was more likely the Penn St maintains a perfect record for a few weeks than cause.

My thought process on Penn State was that with a bye next week and then three games against top-25 teams, the chances of them coming out unscathed and a team I’d wish I could pick a month from now were low. Plus everyone before me picked Cuse. Figured I’d buck the trend.
