Women's basketball watchlist: 11/14 edition

The women’s basketball season has entered week two. Here are the games to keep an eye on today.

BE SEATED AT ALL COSTS

These are the games you’re going to want to skip work for – the ones that will tell us a whole lot about the best of the best.

7pm: Duke at West Virginia (ESPNU)

It’s time to see what this Duke team can do with a healthy roster. West Virginia has the potential to be really good this year, so I’m interested to see them face off against their first ranked opponent of the year.

9pm: Baylor at UNLV (CBSSN)

This game is a lot of fun. UNLV has become one of the best mid-majors in the country and Baylor will be playing at their place.

THIS COULD BE COMPETITIVE/FUN

These matchups are more than just your run-of-the-mill easy blowouts. While some of them have the potential to be, these games are an opportunity to see good teams test themselves early.

6:30pm: Kent State at Xavier (ESPN+)

7pm: Georgetown at George Mason (ESPN+)

8:30pm: UC Davis at Boise State

9pm: Illinois at Oregon State (ESPN+)

A DECENT LOOK AND/OR AT OPTIMAL TIMES

These games will either be a solid look at a team or they just fall at optimal times. If you’re in need of basketball to watch all day (like me), these are games to add to your list. 

11am: La Salle at Temple (ESPN+)

11:30am: North Alabama at Oklahoma (SECN+)

1:30pm: Yale at St. John’s (ESPN+)

4pm: Iona at Charleston

7:30pm: UMES at Northwestern (Big Ten+)

9pm: Seton Hall at San Francisco (ESPN+)

WATCH YOUR TEAM WIN A BLOWOUT

The rest of the games here will likely provide no true competitive value – but you never know. These games are just a look at some P5’s playing teams they should beat with ease. 

6pm: NJIT at Minnesota (Big Ten+)

7pm: Stanford at Washington State (ESPN+)
