Gird your appropriate body parts as needed.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">There are 49 nationally televised college basketball games on today, and we\u2019re getting 97% of the way there with men\u2019s games, as only three of the contests are women\u2019s games. The women\u2019s games highlight is a big one, with #14 Maryland visiting #9 Michigan, and that gets a Fox broadcast in the middle of the day.<\/p>\n<p>Advertisement<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">On the men\u2019s side, there are 14 games with at least one ranked team involved. Five of those 14 have two ranked teams squaring off, so it\u2019s a pretty big day of hoops what with 19 of the AP top 25 in action on national TV one way or another. #11 Virginia heading to challenge #1 Duke gets us started right off the bat. The women\u2019s game in the Big Ten helps bridge the gap until we get to 3pm, when there\u2019s a pair of ranked on ranked games in the Big 12. I\u2019ll let you decide if #14 Kansas at #2 Arizona is a bigger deal than #16 Texas Tech at #4 Iowa State, but I will say that you\u2019ve got four of the five teams in the top five spots in the Big 12 standings right there. Right as that pair wraps up, you get #17 Alabama at #22 Tennessee, and that one carries you along to #20 Arkansas at #7 Florida to wrap up the ranked on ranked contests.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">There\u2019s also #9 Gonzaga, #12 Nebraska, #19 BYU, #24 Louisville, and #25 Vanderbilt all on the road against unranked teams at one point or another today, and those last three will all have a big impact on exactly what the AP poll looks like on Monday, one way or another.<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">As usual, there\u2019s a ton of games that are streaming only. #23 Saint Louis is in action at home on ESPN+ tonight on the men\u2019s side, and you can watch #25 Princeton on the road on ESPN+ just a couple hours earlier on the women\u2019s side to lead the way in those two departments. If you catch a streaming only game that\u2019s a barnburner, be sure to shout it out in the comments so everyone can tune in!<\/p>\n<p>Join the conversation!<\/p>\n<p class=\"\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sbnation.com\/auth\/login?itm_medium=sidebar&amp;itm_source=anonymouseagle&amp;returnPath=%2Fauth%2Fsso%3FreturnTo%3Dhttps%253A%252F%252Fwww.anonymouseagle.com%252F\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:Sign up for a user account;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">Sign up for a user account<\/a>\u00a0and get:<\/p>\n<p>Advertisement<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">Improved notifications system!<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">Comment on articles, community posts<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">Rec comments, community posts<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">Here\u2019s the full national television schedule for the day, with all times Central, as always.<\/p>\n<p>Time (CT)<\/p>\n<p>Game<\/p>\n<p>Television<\/p>\n<p>11:00 AM<\/p>\n<p>#11 Virginia at #1 Duke<\/p>\n<p>ESPN<\/p>\n<p>Colorado at #5 Houston<\/p>\n<p>ESPN2<\/p>\n<p>Seton Hall at #6 Connecticut<\/p>\n<p>FS1<\/p>\n<p>Iowa at Penn State<\/p>\n<p>Big Ten Network<\/p>\n<p>Boston University at American University<\/p>\n<p>CBS Sports Network<\/p>\n<p>NC State at Notre Dame<\/p>\n<p>The CW<\/p>\n<p>Florida State at Georgia Tech<\/p>\n<p>ACC Network<\/p>\n<p>11:30 AM<\/p>\n<p>Fordham at VCU<\/p>\n<p>USA Network<\/p>\n<p>12:00 PM<\/p>\n<p>Missouri at Mississippi State<\/p>\n<p>SEC Network<\/p>\n<p>12:30 PM<\/p>\n<p>Georgetown at Xavier<\/p>\n<p>TNT\/truTV<\/p>\n<p>1:00 PM<\/p>\n<p>#24 Louisville at Clemson<\/p>\n<p>ESPN2<\/p>\n<p>#25 Vanderbilt at Kentucky<\/p>\n<p>ESPN<\/p>\n<p>Oklahoma State at Cincinnati<\/p>\n<p>CBS Sports Network<\/p>\n<p>Oregon at Northwestern<\/p>\n<p>Big Ten Network<\/p>\n<p>UCLA at Minnesota<\/p>\n<p>FS1<\/p>\n<p>San Diego State at New Mexico<\/p>\n<p>CBS<\/p>\n<p>Boston College at Miami<\/p>\n<p>ACC Network<\/p>\n<p>Tennessee State at UT Martin<\/p>\n<p>ESPNU<\/p>\n<p>1:30 PM<\/p>\n<p>#14 Maryland at #8 Michigan<\/p>\n<p>Fox<\/p>\n<p>2:30 PM<\/p>\n<p>Utah at Arizona State<\/p>\n<p>TNT\/truTV<\/p>\n<p>South Carolina at Georgia<\/p>\n<p>SEC Network<\/p>\n<p>3:00 PM<\/p>\n<p>#14 Kansas at #2 Arizona<\/p>\n<p>ESPN<\/p>\n<p>#16 Texas Tech at #4 Iowa State<\/p>\n<p>CBS<\/p>\n<p>#12 Nebraska at USC<\/p>\n<p>Big Ten Network<\/p>\n<p>Richmond at Loyola Chicago<\/p>\n<p>CBS Sports Network<\/p>\n<p>Wisconsin at Washington<\/p>\n<p>FS1<\/p>\n<p>Pittsburgh at California<\/p>\n<p>ACC Network<\/p>\n<p>Texas at Texas A&amp;M<\/p>\n<p>ESPN2<\/p>\n<p>4:30 PM<\/p>\n<p>#19 BYU at West Virginia<\/p>\n<p>Fox<\/p>\n<p>Providence at Creighton<\/p>\n<p>TNT\/truTV<\/p>\n<p>4:45 PM<\/p>\n<p>Syracuse at Wake Forest<\/p>\n<p>The CW<\/p>\n<p>5:00 PM<\/p>\n<p>#17 Alabama at #22 Tennessee<\/p>\n<p>ESPN<\/p>\n<p>San Francisco at Pacific<\/p>\n<p>CBS Sports Network<\/p>\n<p>SMU at Stanford<\/p>\n<p>ACC Network<\/p>\n<p>Oklahoma at LSU<\/p>\n<p>SEC Network<\/p>\n<p>Liberty at Jacksonville State<\/p>\n<p>ESPNU<\/p>\n<p>Kansas at Oklahoma State<\/p>\n<p>FS1<\/p>\n<p>5:30 PM<\/p>\n<p>TCU at Kansas State<\/p>\n<p>ESPN2<\/p>\n<p>7:00 PM<\/p>\n<p>Villanova at #15 St. John\u2019s<\/p>\n<p>Fox<\/p>\n<p>Oregon State at Santa Clara<\/p>\n<p>CBS Sports Network<\/p>\n<p>Baylor at UCF<\/p>\n<p>FS1<\/p>\n<p>Gonzaga at Portland<\/p>\n<p>ESPNU<\/p>\n<p>7:30 PM<\/p>\n<p>#20 Arkansas at #7 Florida<\/p>\n<p>ESPN<\/p>\n<p>Virginia Tech at #18 North Carolina<\/p>\n<p>ESPN2<\/p>\n<p>Ole Miss at Auburn<\/p>\n<p>SEC Network<\/p>\n<p>9:00 PM<\/p>\n<p>Nevada at UNLV<\/p>\n<p>CBS Sports Network<\/p>\n<p>Grand Canyon at Utah State<\/p>\n<p>FS1<\/p>\n<p>9:30 PM<\/p>\n<p>#9 Gonzaga at Saint Mary\u2019s<\/p>\n<p>ESPN<\/p>\n<p>UC Santa Barbara at UC Irvine<\/p>\n<p>ESPN2<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">Follow Anonymous Eagle on social media<\/p>\n<p class=\"\">Facebook:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/anonymouseagle\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:AnonymousEagle;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">AnonymousEagle<\/a><br \/>Instagram:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/anonymouseaglesbn\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:AnonymousEagleSBN;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">AnonymousEagleSBN<\/a><br \/>Bluesky:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/bsky.app\/profile\/anonymouseagle.bsky.social\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:AnonymousEagle;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">AnonymousEagle<\/a><\/p>\n<p><script async src=\"\/\/www.instagram.com\/embed.js\"><\/script><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"This is your last Viewing Guide before we get to March, y\u2019all.
