Thursday Preview

Thursday's games are highlighted by games that feature a bubble team going on the road to face a top-10 team. The breakdown of all these games is the same. The visiting team is on the bubble, most likely on the wrong side of the bubble at this point and a win could help propel them back to the right side of the bubble. These games include:

NC State at Duke
Boston College at North Carolina
Arizona State at UCLA

Two other games of interest tonight:

Arizona at USC - Both teams have righted the ship after struggling early in conference play. As of right now both teams would be in the tourney, so this game may just be influencing seeding come March.

Providence at Notre Dame - This is another match-up between two middle of the pack Big East teams. Providence could probably use this win a little more than Notre Dame as a loss would drop the Friars to 3-5 in the Big East.
