I have the Monday morning Wildcat Blues.

Once again the Arizona Wildcats could not hold serve on their home court and to make matters even worse they once again fell to their arch rivals, the Arizona State Sun Devils.

Final score at McKale on Sunday night: ASU 73, Arizona 69.

Coach Sean Miller calls his team "mediocre" and I can't argue with that, even though it hurts to hear it. The Wildcats are smack dab in the middle of the Pac-10 standings with a 7-7 conference record and a 13-13 overall slate. I guess the good news is the Wildcats could lose their final four Pac-10 games and still have a shot at the NCAA tournament. Of course, they'd have to win the Pac-10 tourney. Actually, the Wildcats will be away from home for the tourney and that may turn out to be a plus, because they certainly are having trouble winning at McKale Center. The Wildcats have lost five home games this year -- including two of their last three.

For some reason it seems like a lot more.
