12-7-19 College Basketball Games to Watch
Headliner Games
Florida at #24 Butler at noon (FOX)
Cincinnati at Xavier (Crosstown Shootout) at 5 p.m. (FS1)
This is a really strong college basketball schedule on a weekend where the college football championship games get all the hype. Two ranked vs. ranked match-ups, the Crosstown Shootout, and Butler vs. UF (who is just outside the rankings).
Upset Watch Games
*Penn St. at #6 Ohio St. (Big Ten) at noon (BTN)
CS Bakersfield at Ole Miss at 2 p.m. (SECN+)
*Illinois at #3 Maryland (Big Ten) at 5 p.m. (ESPN2)
#15 Memphis at UAB at 5:30 p.m. (CBSSN)
Hawaii at #13 Oregon at 7 p.m. (Pac-12N)
Arkansas at W. Kentucky at 7:30 p.m. (CBSSN)
Not thrilled with these 6 choices as most games today are expected to be match-ups between similar teams. Even Arkansas is only a slight favorite at W. Kentucky, so it would be a mild upset in that regard.
