The Arizona State University Sun Devils and Texas Longhorns stare at one another knowing the opponent enters March Madness on an equally sour note. It’s a classic match-up of speed versus size when we watch ASU vs Texas online free live streaming on CBS Sports tonight.
ASU has ridden the offensive brilliance of guard Jahii Carson all season long and will once again be leaning on him to carry them to the next round of March Madness. Carson has averaged 18.6 points and 4.5 assists per game this year and will likely find himself the square focus of the Longhorns defense.
The Longhorns will counter Carson’s penetration with forward Jonathan Holmes and center Cameron Ridley, both of whom have proven to be a handful on defense. Holmes is averaging 13 points and 7.2 rebounds per game.
Both Arizona State and Texas come into tonight’s game on a sour note. ASU has lost their past three games while Texas has lost five of their past seven games. However, it should be noted that ASU is coming into tonight’s game on five days rest and they are 5-0 when having that many or more days off this season.
ASU hasn’t been in the tournament since 2009 while Texas missed for the first time in 15 years last year after compiling a 16-18 record.
The Sun Devils and Longhorns Round 2 NCAA Tournament March Madness game starts at 9:40pm EST / 6:40pm PST tonight. The game will be televised on CBS Sports over the air so anyone who can pick up CBS can watch ASU vs Texas live from the comfort of their couch.
