TEMPE - Arizona State (15-4, 6-2 Pac-12) couldn’t rally down the stretch to overcome No. 5 UCLA (17-2, 8-0) Thursday night in Tempe, falling 74-62.
The Bruins, who’ve now won 14 in a row, went on a 16-2 run in the last six minutes to run away with what was an extremely competitive and impressive game for both teams for the vast majority.
A packed house
One hour before tip-off, Desert Financial Arena’s student section was completely full in the lower bowl. Thousands more awaited entry to see who’d be first place in the Pac-12 at the end of the evening.
