At the bottom of the page, you’ll find a lineup broken down by telecast window with the group designations in bold to the left of the game. Instead of ordering these by tip time, however, I’ve grouped them by importance.

Reminders of the different groupings:

31-75 at Top 75

Group 1 for the visitor only; Group 2 for the host (1/2)

No. 46 UNCG Spartans (22-3, 11-1) at No. 56 Furman Paladins (20-5, 9-4), 7:30 p.m. (ESPN+ ($))

You’ve probably forgotten about the Paladins since their early road victories over Villanova and Loyola Chicago, but you can check in with them tonight. Furman is looking to split the season series with the Spartans, last season’s SoCon NCAA rep. UNCG is currently one loss behind Wofford in this season’s race, with the Paladins and ETSU four losses back. Despite that distance, all four are capable of winning the auto bid in Asheville next month and winning in the NCAAs.

Over in the OVC, the winner of the first Murray State-APSU matchup of the season (another comes on March 2nd) should share the league lead with Belmont at the end of the night, barring disaster for the Bruins.

Back on December 5th, the Buckeyes took down the Illini in their annual Chicago game, 77-67. They’ll look to extend their winning streak to four. But it won’t be easy, as resurgent Illinois can also win their fourth straight tonight.

In the WAC, New Mexico State can move ever closer to yet another conference regular-season crown by sweeping Utah Valley. The Aggies won the first meeting, 83-78, on January 19th in Orem.

UVU’s cross-metro rivals can solidify their hold on second in the WCC by winning the first of their two meetings with San Diego. Meanwhile, in Salt Lake City, the Utes can further dent the Wildcats’ hopes by reversing the three-point OT loss they suffered in Tucson on January 5th.
