Message: [QUOTE="azfan, post: 3432333, member: 7748"] I think we would have to run the table in order to have a shot at hosting. That March 1 home game against Stanford is going to be a critical one. The Cards definitely looked beatable in their last start. The UCLA game today showed how tough the Pac can be on any given game. I'm very interested to see how our four seniors react to this beat down. These are four young ladies invested considerable time and passion in the game and the remainder of the season will be a test of character. Assuming we get by Washington and Washington State at home next weekend we will be in a position to evaluate whether we have the guns to run the table. I appreciate the discussion on the style of play. While we can differ on the effectiveness of various defensive schemes I think it's important to be as objective and realistic as possible about the type of play. As a long time season ticket holder watching the last many years the Devil's consistently play very hard and physical. ASU does not get the elite High School athlete. Sun Devils are consistently working with under sized overachieving players working to max out their potential. I have tremendous respect for these young ladies and what they accomplish in a very talented and deep conference. Another poster indicated that other teams in the Pac-12 also play aggressive, hard, physical style defense. I don't consider any of these teams dirty. There have been individual visiting players over the years who push the limits. I've consistently called out one recent player now playing in the WNBA. Her team was physical one not dirty. However this player did push the boundaries. I've never seen a Sun Devil player engage in play like Arike Ogumbwale. Never. CTT does not tolerate that type of play. [/QUOTE]
