Biggest surprise of the Pac-12 men's season thus far? Last week most would have said Utah. Well it just might be coach Bobby Hurley's Arizona State Sun Devils.
Hurley's Sun Devils got off to a good start in Pac-12 play but also had the good fortune of playing four of their first five games at Desert Financial Arena. Road sweeps are always difficult and this weekend's trip through Oregon marked the first two-game road set for ASU.. The Saturday half looked like the easier part of the battle as the Beavers came into play having won just six conference games, the lone win being a one-point win over Washington.
Hurley felt fortunate his team was in striking distance, given that his opponent shot 55.2% in the first 20 minutes. ASU led by eight at 68-60 with 2:37 to go but the Beavers came back getting within one at 68-67 on a 3-pointer by Jordan Pope with 1:44 to go. The clutch play down the stretch enabled the Sun Devils to register their 37th halftime comeback in the Hurley tenure. Of those comeback wins, 18 have been on the road and 18 have come in conference play.
