We will have more on these games later tonight, but we would be remiss if we didn't post the televised Bracket Buster games as the event moves into its final season.
Not that it is ending a bit too soon, although you are already well aware of our feelings on that topic.
Obviously the highlight of the weekend's games will be Creighton heading to St. Mary's which should prove to be a showdown of not just powerhouse mid-majors for the NCAA Tournament, but could be a crucial seeding opportunity for the Gaels.
Other games that have some important implications include Ohio's trip to Belmont, Montana against Davidson in a battle of stellar guards, and Detroit's trip into Wichita State.
