Hoops fans, rejoice. It’s the first true college basketball Saturday of the season.
With college football’s regular season over and teams amid bowl prep, college basketball takes center stage on a Saturday for the first time this year. Last weekend provided quite the warmup despite being overshadowed by football’s championship Saturday, with No. 1 Purdue, No. 3 Marquette, No. 4 UConn, No. 7 Duke and No. 12 Kentucky all losing between Friday and Saturday night. What type of magic will we see with an even more loaded slate of games this weekend?
Here’s a look at the best showdowns ahead and some predictions for the biggest games.
