Saturday’s slate includes two top 25 matchups

While there are just two games on Saturday between two AP top 25 ranked teams, the slate is still full of exciting games. The best matchup of the day is undoubtedly No. 12 Kentucky traveling to take on No. 2 Auburn. Kentucky is red hot, while Auburn has remained steady at 17-1. Then, No. 13 LSU travels to take on No. 24 Tennessee.

Kentucky and Auburn will undoubtedly be the highlight of what should be an exciting day in college basketball. Vegas lists Auburn as a four-point favorite in the game. Vegas also gives Tennessee better odds over LSU, with the Volunteers listed as 5.5-point favorites.

Other intriguing games on Saturday’s slate include Syracuse at No. 6 Duke, No. 5 Baylor at Oklahoma, No. 9 UCLA at Colorado, and West Virginia at No. 18 Texas Tech.

No. 10 Houston also hosts East Carolina on Saturday. The Pirates just pulled off an upset against Memphis before falling in a close game to UCF. ECU defeated Houston last season.
