Men's basketball
You can debate whether Ken Bone used the correct strategy in the final minute of the game, but no matter how you shake it, the end result from Thursday's game against ASU is another painful loss for the Cougars. Over the long run, close games will likely balance out so hopefully we are storing all of these losses away for an usually lucky season in the near future.
