Very solid slate today:
11 AM:
Florida @ #20 Florida State - Leonard Hamilton is one of my favorite coaches and Scottie Barnes provides the team a high-profile freshman who scored the game-winning shot vs Indiana on Wednesday.
12 PM:
Notre Dame @ Kentucky - I'm a Mike Brey fan. Notre Dame has no depth, but a great starting five with Durham starting at the 5. The Wildcats' slide continues today!!!
12:30 PM:
Cincinatti @ #12 Tennessee - Tennessee is one of my favorite programs over the last few years and their delayed start has been anticipated. Very deep team that starts three capable ball-handlers and Sacred Heart grad transfer EJ Anosike (one of my favorite players I've watched live) brings his lunchpail every game.
1 PM:
Syracuse @ Boston College - Root for Shelton, CT's Rich Kelly (by way of Quinnipiac, Cheshire Academy, Montverde Academy and Fairfield Prep) against the easiest? team to root against.
2 PM:
Texas A&M @ TCU - Two teams with good coaches in rebuilding programs. Texas A&M has former Quinnipiac center grad transfer Kevin Marfo off the bench while PSA's Hassan Diarra is their guard off the bench.
3 PM:
Oklahoma State @ Wichita State - A chance to watch Alterique and Cade Cunningham.
Dayton vs Mississippi State - Dayton is an easy program to root for and a solid opportunity to build their OOC resume.
4-6 PM Some mid-major games that could be decent:
4 PM UAB @ East Tennessee State - ETSU's first year w/o Steve Forbes and Andy Kennedy is solid coach in his first year at UAB, a team that returns five players who averaged double-digits last season.
5 PM Old Dominion @ VCU - Two classic CAA rivals, both of which player better than anticipated. Jaylin Hunter averaging 19 mpg so far.
5 PM Santa Barbara @ Loyola Marymount - These two teams played each other earlier this week. Rare chance to see two solid under-the-radar west coast teams. LMU is hilariously large (6'6 245 point forward Eli Scott) and a team on the rise in the WCC. The Big West streams all their game for free on their conference website.
6 PM Utah @ BYU - Intrastate Utah games tend to be very good.
7 PM
Clemson vs Alabama - Clemson's defense has been their calling card and Nate Oats has had an impressive start to his Alabama tenure.
Louisiana Tech vs Louisiana - Two consistently decent mid-major programs playing an intrastate game.
8 PM
#6 Illinois @ Missouri - The best both teams have been in a while. Illinois' flash vs Missouri's muscle. Could be an excellent game.
Oregon @ Washington - A bad start for Washington, but I think they finish the season in the middle of the Pac-12.
Belmont @ Lipscomb - If this game between the two Nashville schools doesn't happen every year, it should. Both are teams no one would want to play in the first round of the tournament.
Enjoy!
