College Station, Texas, Monday: I'm convinced that Texas A&M's fans will be as loud and as disruptive as Kansas State's. The question is, can the Aggies do what the Wildcats could not and beat top-ranked Kansas? Texas A&M is a sound, disciplined team. I wouldn't be surprised if the Aggies pulled off the upset.
Starkville, Miss., Tuesday: I'm not sure Mississippi State can beat Kentucky, but one thing is certain: The matchup inside of Jarvis Varnado and DeMarcus Cousins should be intriguing to watch. Can Varnado be physical enough to deal with Cousins? The problem is that Kentucky can run Daniel Orton and Patrick Patterson at Varnado as well. Where is Renardo Sidney? He's still not eligible.
Tampa, Fla., Tuesday: Cincinnati had a huge win at Connecticut on Saturday, but now the Bearcats have to deal with a pesky South Florida team that is still in the mix for a bid.
Columbus, Ohio, Wednesday: The winner of the Purdue-Ohio State game will have the inside track on matching Michigan State in the next two weeks. This should be one of the best Big Ten games of the season.
St. Louis, Wednesday: The most dangerous team in the A-10 right now is Saint Louis after the Billikens beat Dayton in double overtime. Saint Louis could make life miserable for Rhode Island with a win.
Milwaukee, Thursday: Pitt is coming off a triple-overtime win over West Virginia, while Marquette is making a strong case to be an NCAA team.
Washington D.C., Thursday: Georgetown is fully capable of returning the favor to Syracuse with a strong win. While the Orange have proved to be a very good road team, the Hoyas have played up to their competition at home.
Cambridge, Mass., Friday: Cornell got a must-win against Princeton but is still tied in the loss column. Lose at Harvard and suddenly the Tigers are up again in the standings.
Nashville, Tenn., Saturday: Vanderbilt had its worst SEC game of the season at Kentucky. Don't expect that to occur when it hosts the Wildcats in what should be one of the best atmospheres in the SEC this season.
Indianapolis, Saturday: Even with Siena losing at Niagara, I'm still banking on the Saints at Butler as being the best BracketBuster game of the weekend. A Siena victory would help the profile.
Charlotte, N.C., Saturday: Xavier is hot after a Florida victory, but winning in Charlotte is even more important for the A-10 title. Loser will be behind Richmond.
Pittsburgh, Sunday: Villanova's schedule is backloaded with difficult road games. Nova got pounded by Georgetown and had a huge win at West Virginia, and a victory at Pitt would be quite a primer for the following Saturday at Syracuse.
