6 pm: Tennessee at South Carolina (ESPN) to see if Beamer Ball Junior can set a trap for the Vols.

11 am: The early slate is a jumbled pile of "wow they really fell off a cliff" teams squaring off, leading with Florida at Texas A&M (ESPN) and Iowa at Purdue (FS1). Maryland at Wisconsin (BTN) and Minnesota at Nebraska (ESPN2) might be competitive?
