The Sun Devils were up 41-34 at the break as the game in the 2nd half was nip and tuck. 'Zona PG and unquestioned leader TJ McConnell led the 'Cats with a game-high 25 points kept the 'Cats close. Freshman sensation Stanley "the STAN-imal" Johnson added 16 points as 'Zona shot just 45% from the field and 37% from the arc while under 60% from the stripe.

The Sun Devils doubled the attempts from the stripe at 28 while making 22 of 28 with 'Zona making 8 of 14 and that was a +14 in the Sun Devils favor. Couple all of that with Guard Bo Barnes leading the way with 18 off the bench and three starters in double figures A.S.U. created the "Perfect Storm" to up end the 'Cats 81-78 as McConnell his a money ball at the buzzer making it look a little closer than what it was.
