Saturday sees 23 huge games in college basketball action. Here’s who is playing, when, and how to watch.
If you are a college basketball fan, today is your lucky day.
Starting at 11:00 a.m. Eastern, over 12-straight hours of critical college basketball awaits you. Over this period of time, 23 critical conference tournament games will be played, including 13 conference tournament finals.
That means 13 tickets to the big dance will be punched, and ten more teams will inch closer to the big dance.
Unfortunately, it also means some bubbles will be burst along the way.
It all kicks off with a pair of games in the 11:00 a.m. Eastern time slot. First is the America East final, pitting Vermont versus UMass Lowell. At the same time, the first Ivy League semifinal tips off, which sees Yale take on Cornell.
The long day of basketball ends with the WAC final, which sees Grand Canyon take on … That game tips off at 11:30 p.m. Eastern. Also, don’t forget to turn your clocks ahead before you go to bed after the WAC final.
