This Saturday is chock full of high-quality, NCAA tournament caliber matchups between a handful of teams that have legitimate title aspirations. There are five — yes, FIVE — ranked-ranked matchups on Saturday, with the first tipping at noon and the last getting underway at [groans in East Coast] 10:30 p.m.
We are getting a top-5 matchup when the No. 5 Houston Cougars travel to Charlottesville to face No. 2 Virginia, a top-10 meeting with No. 6 Tennessee at No. 9 Arizona and two top-15 matchups. It’s about as perfect of a men’s college basketball weekend as you can ask for in mid-December.
