Today is a ridiculously good day for college hoops.
#4 Duke @ #6 Louisville (10am, ESPN)
Miami (coming off Duke win) @ #12 Notre Dame (12pm, ESPN2)
Ohio State @ Iowa (12pm, ESPN) -- 1st matchup between them was really good when Iowa won at Columbus
Florida @ Georgia (12pm, CBS) -- both teams will be bubbly on Selection Sunday and need this one
#22 Baylor @ KSU (1pm, ESPNU) -- **** bailer
#1 Kentucky @ Alabama (2pm, ESPN) -- before a horrible loss at tUSC, Bama looked like the 2nd best in the SEC
Michigan State @ #14 Maryland (2pm, CBS) -- cheering for Tad's buddy Turgeon
Butler @ Georgetown (3pm, FS1) -- both are 3-2 in a very deep Big East & this is a very bubbly game
UNLV @ SDSU (4pm, CBSSN) -- Rebs were surprisingly decent but now these teams are heading in opposite directions in MWC.
#16 West Virginia @ #20 Texas (4:15, ESPN) -- WVU has been nails this year, UT has ridiculously underperformed its talent. I'd bet on Huggy Bear.
#8 Utah @ #10 Arizona (5pm, PACN) -- winner is in 1st place. More important for UA (home & they dropped a conference game already)
#24 Okie Lite @ #18 Okie (5pm, ESPN2) -- rivalries are fun. I'm not sure what to make of either of these teams yet.
Temple @ Cincinnati (5:30pm, ESPNU) -- good game that won't draw much interest from casual fans
Providence @ Creighton (5:30pm, ESPNU) -- another good game that won't draw much interest from casual fans. Providence needs this for bubble.
#9 Kansas @ #11 Iowa State (7pm, ESPN) -- building is going to be rocking in Ames. Gameday is there today.
UConn @ Stanford (7pm, ESPN2) -- this is huge for the Pac-12 and huge for UConn to get its season back on track
BYU @ Saint Mary's (9pm, ESPN2) -- should be a fun game between two good teams that can shoot the rock
(As usual, my enjoyment and interest in watching basketball will be largely determined by CU's performance at ASU at 2:30 on PACN)
