The Oregon State men’s basketball team wrapped up its trip to the desert Saturday night in Tempe, falling to Arizona State in another blowout. With the 73-53 loss, the Beavers dropped to 3-22 overall and 1-14 in Pac-12 play as they continued their trend toward the worst season in program history.

The men’s basketball team is on a dangerous path headed towards the single worst season in program history.

The Beavers face the Sun Devils tonight on ESPN2 and they are 8.5 point underdogs. There’s not an easy game left on the schedule and the Beavs will be underdogs in each contest. Here’s the kicker, Oregon State would need to pull off two upsets in order to avoid having the worst winning percentage in school history.
