Preview Roundups
February 13, 2017
Louisville at Syracuse 7:00 PM ET
Two teams clumped near the top of the ACC standings face a quick turnaround after learning some important lessons over the weekend when No. 4 Louisville travels to Syracuse on Monday. The Cardinals needed to rally from 14 points down for a 71-66 win at home Saturday against Miami, while the Orange saw their season-best five-game winning streak snapped with a defensive lapse in an 80-75 setback at Pittsburgh.
Baylor at Texas Tech 7:00 PM ET
Eighth-ranked Baylor remained on the heels of No. 3 Kansas in the Big 12 Conference title race thanks to a 70-52 trouncing of visiting TCU on Saturday that had the student section chanting "We want KU. We want KU" near the finish. The Bears will host the Jayhawks on Saturday in a potential first place showdown but first must take care of business with a Monday night game at pesky Texas Tech.
West Virginia at Kansas 9:00 PM ET
Despite double-digit wins in its two games following a loss to Oklahoma State, West Virginia coach Bob Huggins feels his team will need to play better than it has as it attempts to steal the Big 12 title from Kansas. On the other hand, the No. 3 Jayhawks will try to start another home-court winning streak and avoid a season sweep when the 14th-ranked Mountaineers visit Allen Fieldhouse on Monday night in a critical conference showdown.
Villanova at DePaul 9:00 PM ET
On the surface, Monday's matchup between No. 2 Villanova and host DePaul is a classic Big East mismatch. However, the Wildcats barely defeated the Blue Demons in the first matchup this season, so perhaps DePaul can give the defending national champions another good game in this one.
