Sophomore guard Tyus Battle added 15 points for the Orange (21-13). Junior guard Frank Howard scored 12 points as Syracuse overcome a seven-point deficit with a closing 18-7 burst.

The Orange face sixth-seeded TCU on Friday in a Midwest Regional first-round game at Detroit.

Senior guard Kodi Justice scored 15 points and senior guard Shannon Evans II added 14 for the Sun Devils, who lost for the sixth time in the past seven games. Arizona State (20-12) got 11 points from senior guard Tra Holder and 10 from sophomore forward Mickey Mitchell.

Evans missed a go-ahead 3-point attempt with four seconds left. Howard then made two free throws with 0.4 seconds remaining to seal the win for the Orange.

"Everyone just plays hard, everyone wants to win," Brissett said in a postgame interview on truTV. "We're all dialed in. We come out every game ready to play."

Arizona State was just 3 of 10 from the free-throw line. The Sun Devils opened the season with 12 straight wins and then went 8-12 the rest of the way.
