6:30 pm: Minnesota @ Michigan State: Michigan State has been playing much better ball of late as Raymar Morgan and Kalin Lucas have apparently gotten over their leadership issues, or lack thereof. Minnesota has their own problems, as their legal issues have yet to be resolved. Despite all of that, these two teams are both atop the Big Ten, with Michigan State 1/2 game behind Illinois at 3-0 while Minnesota is 3-1.
7:00 pm: Pitt @ UConn: Perhaps no team in the country needs a resume win as badly as UConn does. The Huskies have lost to Kentucky, Duke, Cincinnati, and Georgetown, all in close games. Would anyone have guessed that Pitt could be a resume win this season? The Panthers look to pick up their third straight road win in the Big East.
8:30 pm: Wisconsin @ Northwestern: Northwestern needs to pick up a win like this if they truly want to be considered a bubble team. With Jon Leuer out after breaking a bone in his wrist, it will be interesting to see how good the Badgers are.
9:00 pm: UNC @ Clemson: Clemson thrives on their defensive pressure to create turnovers and points. UNC has an inexperienced back court that has been susceptible to pressure. It should be fun to see Trevor Booker go up against the UNC front line.
