Kentucky vs. Florida (SAT, 4 PM ET, CBS)- The Wildcats are a very weak team on the road, but at home, they look like last year's team, as they look like the best team in the country no matter who they are playing. UK has not lost at the Comfy Confines of Rupp Arena, but Florida is a good team. Last time the Gators and Wildcats met up, UK lost by 2. This time, I expect them to win the game for only 1 reason-it's a home game.
Cincinnati vs. Connecticut (SUN, NOON ET, ESPNU)- The Bearcats looked very good in their last game @ Georgetown, and now they play another good team in the Huskies. The Huskies will be favored to win, but this is a home game for the 'Cats. If UC can beat G'Town on the road, I think they could beat UCONN at home. But, this is Big East Basketball, and nothing is for sure in that league. If the Bearcats win, look for them to be ranked in the next polls.
Xavier @ Dayton (SUN, 1 PM ET, ESPN/ESPN2)- The Musketeers and Flyers will meet up, Sunday, as the A-10's most heated rivalry continues. Dayton is having a down season, while Xavier is having a great season, but, as I just said, this is a rivalry game. Dayton will have the fans behind them, and will be playing better than usual, as they would love to take down the top team in the A-10, the Xavier Musketeers. But, Xavier has won other tough road games, like @ Richmond, and have played, and beaten, better teams than Dayton. XU has already beaten UD once this year, back in January, as they won 81-76. That was a close game at the Cintas Center. So, by reading this paragraph, it sounds like Dayton might win, well yeah, they might, but I am picking the Muskies in a close game, like 5 or less. That is just because they are an overall better team.
Ohio State vs. Indiana (SUN, 4 PM ET, CBS)- The Buckeyes are coming off of a nice win over Illinois, and are looking like they are back on track--well, if they ever really went off the track-- and should beat Indiana Sunday. Indiana is not a very good team, as they are 10th place in the Big Ten, and have won only 12 games this season. The Hoosiers could upset the Bucks, but I highly doubt that. This is a home game for Ohio State, and they are a much better team than than Indiana, so they should definitely take down the Hoosiers.
