Old School Meets New School
An earlier loss to Georgetown may end up costing Xavier a chance at winning the Big East regular season title. The X-men can avenge that upset defeat and hang near Villanova at the top of the standings while waiting for a showdown with the No. 1 team in the country....
A huge Saturday of college hoops kicks off at high noon on Saturday in what will end up being the biggest game of the year for the Louisville Cardinals against the Duke Blue Devils....
A season ago, the Bulldogs beat the Commodores, hosting them at the Stegeman Coliseum in Athens. This time around, it’s Vanderbilt that gets to host as they search for revenge. Vandy is also returning a few more top performers from that game while Georgia’s leading scorer on the year—Yante Maten—managed just three points....
The Kentucky Wildcats have seemingly turned a corner. A trouncing of South Carolina on the road was the latest statement made by the youthful Cats. UK will attempt to put the struggling Aggies down and remain atop the SEC standings....
One of the lesser known rivalries in the nation is the Capital City Classic between the Richmond Spiders and VCU Rams. The Rams currently lead the series 47-28 and will look to win their third in a row in this rivalry Friday night at home....
There’s never a dull moment in the Big 12. Two of the conference’s six top 25 teams square off when No. 24 Texas hosts No. 25 Baylor in a battle for positioning in the league standings. The Longhorns’ harassing defense held the Bears to a season-low point total in a road win at the beginning of the month....
The Kentucky Wildcats have done a fantastic job this season responding to losses. Outside of when they lost back-to-back games to Kansas and the Tennessee Volunteers, they've bounced back from their defeats to post victories of 18+ points four times this season. For the first time in 2016 though, they've got a shot to avenge a loss against a team which beat them earlier in the campaign when Tennessee comes to Rupp Arena....
The SMU Mustangs are starting to look like they don't have a heck of a lot left to play for this year. Their season is just a handful of games away from being over with, and they've dropped three of their last six after starting the year at 18-0. Now, they've got a road test against a Connecticut Huskies team which badly needs a win like this one to help bolster their NCAA Tournament chances....
The bubble is starting to get really tight in the AAC, as there really isn't such a thing as a team which is on really firm ground for a spot in the NCAA Tournament. The Connecticut Huskies and Cincinnati Bearcats are both firmly dwelling on the bubble, and they're facing off with one another in a crucial tilt on Saturday....
The Badgers are playing their best basketball of the season riding a seven-game winning streak and going 7-0 ATS at the same time. The run started with a win over Sparty one month ago as a 6.5-point underdog....
Languishing near the bottom half of the Pac-12 standings this late is new for UCLA. The Bruins will attempt to climb out of the hole they dug themselves and keep their slim tournament hopes alive by knocking off Utah, a contender for the top spot in the conference....
A pair of ranked teams out of the Big East are set to square off again on Wednesday with the No. 4 ranked Xavier Musketeers looking for the season series sweep over No. 17 Providence. The Musketeers won—on the road—back on January 26 and look to repeat, this time at home....
Syracuse is flying high right now, having gone from a team that looked like it was on the wrong side of the bubble, to a team that can probably punch its ticket to the dance with another win or two. The Orange have won five in a row and eight of its last nine but will face its stiffest test yet when they travel to Louisville to play the Cardinals....
It's been a really tough year for the AAC. The conference's best team, SMU isn't eligible for the NCAA Tournament, and there's still a legitimate possibility that this could end up being a one-bid league to the dance if enough goes wrong between now and Selection Sunday. One thing that could change the perception of the AAC though, is if it scored a major victory out of conference, and the Temple Owls have a shot to do that on Wednesday against the Villanova Wildcats in a Big Five showdown....
The Big 12 meat grinder continues to wear down teams with both the No. 14 Iowa St Cyclones and No. 21 Baylor Bears picking up losses this week, both to unranked Texas Tech. The Cyclones and Bears will both try to get over their recent losses and secure win No. 19 of the year on Super Tuesday....
The Syracuse Orange have one massive road win this season against Duke, but if they're going to get into the NCAA Tournament, common logic suggests they'll need one more signature victory at minimum. They've got a chance to get that victory on the road on Wednesday night against the Louisville Cardinals....
Bitter rivals across all sports, the Ohio State Buckeyes and Michigan Wolverines will renew their ties for the first time on the hardwood in 2016 on Tuesday night in a game the Bucks must feel like they have to win if they want to keep their chances alive to dance....
There aren't two greater rivals in college basketball than the Duke Blue Devils and the North Carolina Tar Heels. The Dookies are playing some of their best ball of the season and seem to have gotten over their mid-January swoon, but that doesn't mean they really have a good shot on the road in Chapel Hill on Wednesday night....
And the slide continues for the Texas A&M Aggies. They've dropped four games in a row both SU and ATS, and all of a sudden, if they don't get at least one win on this three-game home stand, they could find themselves a lot closer to the bubble than they'd care to admit. The biggest swing game of the bunch is the first one on the docket, a date with the Ole Miss Rebels on Tuesday night....
A year ago, these two conference rivals met on the hardwood and the Wolverines walked away with the 64-57 victory at home in an upset. The teams are more balanced this time around, though Michigan will have to beat Ohio State on the road to repeat....
Duke knocked off contenders Louisville and Virginia last week to put an end to its slump. Now, the Blue Devils look ahead to a showdown with ACC leader North Carolina in the Dean Dome. Another win puts the Dookies within a game of first place and that rough stretch from a few weeks back further in the rear view mirror....
The Wildcats’ five-game winning streak has them back in first place in the Pac-12. They’re looking to stay there and get the season sweep over rival Arizona State. Arizona opened the conference season with a 94-82 home victory over the Sun Devils....
We could assume that West Virginia might overlook Texas with a showdown against Oklahoma looming. But the Mountaineers were humbled at home as a 12-point favorite by the Longhorns last month. It’s hard to win on the road in the Big 12 and overlooking anyone could be a fatal mistake....
Reality has set in for the Oklahoma State Cowboys over the course of the last several weeks. They've never really had a shot against some of the Big XII's elites, and they've dropped five straight conference games since pulling off the upset of the Kansas Jayhawks back on January 19. Odds have it, KU is going to be out for some serious revenge on ESPN's Big Monday....
The Virginia Cavaliers have made a killing all season long taking care of the teams they really should be taking care of, especially here at John Paul Jones Arena. Theoretically, the N.C. State Wolfpack don't really stand that much of a chance of anything better than a high single-digit defeat on Monday night....
