It wasn’t long ago that Ole Miss looked like one of the SEC’s hottest teams, but after falling out of the AP Top 25, the Rebels are now desperate for a signature win to regain momentum. And what better opportunity than against No. 1 Auburn? The Rebels (19-8, 8-6 SEC) have already proven they can take down a powerhouse on the road, stunning then-No. 4 Alabama on Jan. 14 in Tuscaloosa. Now, they return to Alabama hoping to replicate that magic against an Auburn team that’s steamrolling through the conference. Head coach Chris Beard believes his team is still capable of hanging with the best. With March Madness already in sight, a win over Auburn would do wonders for Ole

The Clemson Tigers are rolling, and with just a handful of games left in the regular season, they’re firmly in the mix for the ACC title. Sitting at 22-5 overall and 14-2 in conference play, Clemson is just one game out of first place, making Wednesday’s matchup against Notre Dame another must-win in their chase for the top. Meanwhile, Notre Dame (12-15, 6-10 ACC) has shown signs of life, winning two of its last four games.

A Creighton loss to DePaul would give them the outright title, a feat they last accomplished in 1985. Head coach Rick Pitino knows exactly how much this moment means to the program. With 13 wins in their last 14 games, St. John’s has been on a tear, and they’re coming off one of their most impressive performances yet—an 89-75 domination of UConn at Madison Square Garden. That swept the season

For decades, Cincinnati basketball was synonymous with dominance in mid-major conferences. But now, in its first Big 12 season, the Bearcats (16-11, 6-10 Big 12) are proving they belong. After a rough start in league play, Cincinnati has won four of its last six games, showing major growth in one of the toughest conferences in the country. Meanwhile, Baylor (16-11, 8-8 Big 12), a perennial conference powerhouse, is sliding at the worst possible time. With three losses in its last four games, the Bears are sputtering toward the finish line as they prepare for March. The two teams meet Tuesday night in Cincinnati, marking Baylor’s first visit to the Queen City since 1946. The Bearcats are peaking at the right
