We’re going to be busy most of the day, but if we were in front of our TV, here’s what we would keep an eye on:
Noon: If you get CBS Sports Network, Navy hosts Tulsa and the winner is basically in the American championship game. If you like snuff films, Mississippi State plays at Bama.
3:30 p.m. Georgia-Auburn is usually good for some chaos, even though Governor Smart is having a difficult first season to say the least. Low-key good game on ESPN3 in this time slot is Appalachian State at Troy, a matchup of the two best teams in the Sun Belt by far.
7:00 p.m. USF vs. Memphis is on ESPNU. Meanwhile, LSU and Arkansas will have a stupid-off, Washington will get its best last test of the regular season when they host USC, and Michigan will beat Iowa to smithereens.
10:30 p.m. California at Washington State, where the first team to 70 points wins. This game will end at about four in the morning.
