First up is the game of the year (part II) in the Big 12 featuring No. 3 Kansas at No. 4 Baylor. The game lost a little bit of its luster when the Bears were upset by Texas Tech on Monday night, but this still feels like a must-win for Scott Drew’s team if there’s going to be any hope of not letting Kansas’ streak of consecutive regular season conference championships run to 13.
After the sun sets on the East Coast, there will be another huge conference showdown, this one featuring No. 10 North Carolina and No. 14 Virginia. The Tar Heels have a full game lead on the three ACC teams tied for second, while Virginia is looking to avoid its third consecutive defeat.
