Hi sports fans and welcome to another exciting edition of this weeks blog. Today is a big day for Arizonians alike as Arizona State takes on the University of Arizona in the duel in the desert. Tip off is in approximately two hours (8 p.m. MST) on FSN and fans from everywhere will be tuning in for the sold out main event. This is a big game for both teams as ASU is having a winning season, ranked 14 in the country, and UA is on a hot streak winning their past seven games. The Cats are looking to get revenge on the Devils after a 53-47 loss in Tucson as both teams are looking to clinch the Pac-10 championship.
UA will be looking for the "Big Three,"Chase Budinger, Jordan Hill and Nic Wise, to step up and continue producing big plays and put up big numbers. ASU will look to young guard James Harden and forward Jeff Pendergraph who make up most of the Devils offense.
The Cats are currently 18-8 this season under interim head coach Russ Pennell and the Devils are 20-5 under head coach Herb Sendek. Both teams are coming off big wins against the ranked UCLA Bruins and the USC Trojans. The Cats and the Devils are playing great basketball which will make this showdown in the desert one to remember.
That wraps up tonight's update. From Tucson, don't forget to tune in for what should be an unforgettable game. Until next time, Bear Down!
