Preview Roundups
March 15, 2015
Arkansas at Kentucky 1:00 PM ET
Kentucky is 33-0 and owns the longest winning streak in the program’s storied history. And after the top-ranked Wildcats routed upstart Auburn 91-67 to set the mark and set up Sunday’s SEC tournament championship matchup with No. 20 Arkansas in Nashville, Tenn., coach John Calipari was asked if he senses his team is getting overconfident or cocky.
Connecticut at Southern Methodist 3:15 PM ET
What seemed improbable just a few days ago is well within reach for Connecticut, which will face No. 21 SMU on Sunday in the American Athletic Conference tournament final at the XL Center in Hartford, Conn. The Huskies rallied to defeat Tulsa on Saturday to put themselves in position to capture the automatic bid they need to reach the NCAA Tournament.
Michigan St at Wisconsin 3:30 PM ET
Big Ten Player of the Year Frank Kaminsky was merely a part-time player when Wisconsin lost in Chicago in the conference title game two years ago. The Lisle, Ill. native will get his chance to write a much different ending in familiar surroundings Sunday when the fifth-ranked and top-seeded Badgers meet Michigan State in the Big Ten tournament championship game. Kaminsky averaged 4.2 points and 10.3 minutes as a sophomore in 2012-13, when Wisconsin fell to Ohio State 50-43.
