Tuesday TV schedule: Monmouth-Wagner preview and all your watching/streaming needs

Remember the Hawks?

NCAA Basketball: Monmouth-NJ at Syracuse
King Rice has Monmouth rolling again.
Rich Barnes-USA TODAY Sports

Everyone wanted to talk about Monmouth this time last year, and for good reason.

The Hawks jumped out of the gate with November wins against UCLA, Notre Dame and USC. This year, their 6-2 record doesn’t have that kind of heft, or the media buzz that comes with it.

That might not bother King Rice, who talked to Rush The Court about playing without the spotlight.

“So maybe right now some other teams like Chattanooga or Arkansas State, some other mid-majors are doing it and the spotlight’s on them. So what I said to my guys is, ‘How about we just be the group that nobody’s paying attention to, and we just keep working and see how good we can get.’ If we keep getting better on defense with our numbers, we’re going to be hard to beat.”

Rice’s team will be at the mercy of the MAAC tournament, and everything that’s happened thus far points to the Hawks yet again being the favorite (even if that didn’t work out for them in 2015-16).

Justin Robinson, Micah Seaborn and Oklahoma transfer Je’lon Hornbeak lead an up-tempo offense that has scored at least 80 points in its past four wins. Senior forward Chris Brady (11.0 PPG, 6.2 BLK%) is also one of the conference’s premier post players.

Tonight the Hawks try to run their winning streak to six games against Wagner, in the former NEC rivals’ 61st all-time meeting. The Seahawks had their own moment in the sun beating UConn on opening night, but have since gone 1-4 in part because of cold-shooting.

But this is still a game to keep an eye on. Wagner has dropped some close games, including a hard-fought loss to an athletic UMass team last week. They’ve also been great on the offensive glass, an area that Monmouth has been vulnerable.

Here’s how to watch that and the rest of Tuesday’s mid-major action.
