We have 26 games getting a national broadcast this week, which is way down from last week's offerings. Odd. It appears that Fox Sports is the big offender this week, as a lot of the time on Fox Sports 1 is being turned over to both UFC and NASCAR.
In any case, we've got three games between two teams that are nationally ranked right now, with two games coming out of the Big 12 and the third being the biggest game of the week in the Big East between Villanova and Butler. All told, there's 13 games with a national broadcast that features at least one ranked team, which includes ESPN's main event of the day: reigning national champion Connecticut visiting #25 SMU and Moody Coliseum.
As always, all times are central, and if you catch a local broadcast of a barnburner, be sure to let everyone know how to catch it in the comments section!
