79 - 58 on a day when pretty much everything went right for Stanford in the second half but the final three from ASU. It is hard to believe that this is the same team that has looked so pedestrian at times. This is the sort of thing that makes me super frustrated when we underperform, because I'm convinced we can actually be a good team. This is the sort of game that I was hoping we'd see more of this year.
The upside, of course, is that we actually have a chance to beat UCLA tomorrow and Arizona (or Colorado) on Saturday. But for the lack of depth and the fact that we'd be playing four games in four days, I'd say we actually have a pretty good chance of at least making it to the finals. And depending on our seed, we could make a tournament run. Of course, with this team's inconsistency, we could fall on our faces tomorrow, and then lay an egg in the first round of the tournament.
But at least we'll be making the tournament, barring an inexplicable decision by the committee. Now it's just a question of seeding.
