to Missouri, 30 to 20," or "I don't know the score, but Arizona State got beat." Per- haps the twin desires to connect ourselves to winners and to distance ourselves from losers were combined consummately in the remarks of one particular stu- dent. After dryly recounting the score of the home-team defeat-"Arizona State lost it, 30 to 20"-he blurted in anguish, "They threw away our chance for a national championship!"
