Just more motivation, weren't we picked 6th or 7th in Baseball also ?
Re: Cajuns Picked 4th in Sun Belt
ASU has lost ALL of their primary playmakers on both offense and defense and I'm not sure how they can get so much love. However, that doesn't matter as they've continuously fallen on their faces every year they were expected to do anything.
