- Villanova: @ Xavier (1/12)
- Providence: @Creighton (1/11), vs. UConn (1/15)

- Baylor: vs. Texas Tech (1/11), vs. Oklahoma State (1/15)
The college basketball season still has more than three months to go. With 350 Division I schools spread across the country in 32 conferences, there will be plenty of NCAAB action in the weeks ahead for bettors in New York to enjoy.
