USA Today (the newspaper) has extended college basketball coverage in the sports section every Tuesday

2pm, Full Court Press, CSTV. Highlights from coaches press conferences.

4pm, Michigan at Michigan State, ESPN. In-state rivarly and NCAA implications at the same time. Michigan can help their cause by winning. Prediction: Izzo State wins comfortably

430pm, Pistol Pete Diaries, Episode III on FoxCollegeSports, an original 6-part series.

6pm, Florida at Tennessee, ESPN. After Florida's road woes (@Vandy, @LSU) this game just got more interesting. TN is strong at home, and Bruce Pearl is excited about winning an Oscar for makeup for his body-paint performance at a recent women's bball game (Oscar was awarded by the ESPN Gamenight crew). Prediction: Florida reminds everyone (on national tV) that they are the defending national champs. Possibly an instant classic game! Pat Summit alert!!!: Pat Summit has promised that she will do something in return to Bruce Pearl's painted body appearance at the women's game. Pat has dropped a hint perhaps, she said she was a cheerleader when she was young.

6pm, 9pm, 7am Wedn, BYU at Air Force, CSTV. Two of the top four teams in the MWC battle it out in a game with serious NCAA implications. Bzdelik got in trouble with the MWC beauraucrats for criticizing the schedule, which probably means that he struct a nerve. Prediction: AF wins!

6pm, Kansas State at Oklahoma State, FullCourt/CSN. Bubble Game!. A win would be more beneficial for Huggins since it would be a road win.

9pm, 9am Wedn, College Gamenight, ESPN
