Five to grow on
Nov. 28,
vs. Kent State, South Padre (Texas) Invitational (Fox College Sports)
The preseason favorite to win the MAC, Kent State features the reigning MAC Player of the Year, 6-1 guard Al Fisher, and a stingy defense.
Dec. 2,
vs. Clemson, the Assembly Hall (ESPN2)
Here's a guess the Tigers – picked to finish fifth in the ACC – challenge Duke and Wake Forest for second place behind No. 1 North Carolina.
Dec. 6,
vs. Georgia, United Center, Chicago (ESPNU)
Ticket sales for the annual Chicago game already were sluggish before Loyola pounded Georgia 74-53 on Monday.
Dec. 20,
vs. Detroit, the Assembly Hall (Big Ten Network)
Alex Legion turned 20 on Sunday, and he's expected to debut Dec. 20. Mike Tisdale said Tuesday, "I think (having Legion) will help that much more."
Dec. 23,
vs. Missouri, Scottrade Center, St. Louis (ESPN2)
Nine is fine for the Illini, who can set a series record with a ninth straight win in the Braggin' Rights matchup, with St. Louis' Tyler Griffey in attendance.
