Arizona State must be playing some very good basketball to be the Salukis by that margin. SIU has a pretty good team.

I didn't catch the SIU game, but I watched them play against Alabama State and they were lights out. I think they're on a mission, since they didn't make the NCAA Tournament

I watched every second of SIU-ASU. That was the last leg of my 4 team parley and I had the Sun Devils -6. Cha-ching! :biggrin:

The Salukis weren't quite as good this year as they never really found anyone to fill the SG void left by the graduation of Jamaal Tatum in 2007. Their inability to hit from the outside did them in against ASU as Falker had to fight through double teams underneath.
