Close the door on the marathon with KansasMemphis

Peters, 6:00 A.M.: These two teams took the national televised publicity to tip at 6:00 A.M. A couple smaller conferences schools will do battle as the country prepares for another day of work. Drexel vs. Niagara, 8:00 A.M.: Drexel was in this marathon a year ago, they squeaked out a victory over Penn. Niagara is pretty good, they might not have the same success on ESPN this year. Liberty vs No. Northeastern, 12:00 P.M.: Quite the mid-major battle here, which should have the feel of a BracketBuster type game. Northeastern and Siena can both play, and theyll face each other in Albany. AR-Little Rock vs.

Arkansas vs No. 23 Louisville, 7:30 P.M.: Rotnei Clarke is coming off his 51 point performance; Louisville probably wont let him get anywhere close to those type of numbers.

Memphis vs No. 1 Kansas, 10:00 P.M.: Close the door on the marathon with Kansas/Memphis.

George Mason vs No.

Rider vs No. 5 Kentucky, 1:00 P.M.: Hey, this Rider team just knocked off Mississippi State, think John Calipari is aware of this VCU vs No.
