Ranked Game(s)
‘Ranked Games’ feature schools that find themselves within the Associated Press (AP) Top 25 Rankings, regardless of who their opponent is.
Army Black Knights (1-0, 0-0) @ #4 Duke Blue Devils (1-0, 0-0)
Time: 1 p.m. (est)
Location: Durham, North Carolina, USA @ the Cameron Indoor Stadium
Network: ESPN
Game Note: Many are ready to crown Duke the National Champions. Why not? They easily took care of Kentucky and seem poised for a minimal loss season, with a number one seed for March Madness in mind.

George Washington Colonials (0-2, 0-0) @ #5 Virginia Cavaliers (1-0, 0-0)
Time: 2 p.m. (est)
Location: Charlottesville, Virginia, USA @ the John Paul Jones Arena
Network: ACC Network
Game Note: George Washington starts the season 0-2, as it seems this team may be in for a long season. Virginia is on the other end of that spectrum, a team motivated by being on the wrong side of history last year.
Hartford Hawks (0-2, 0-0) @ #18 Mississippi State Bulldogs (1-0, 0-0)
Time: 5 p.m. (est)
Location: Starkville, Mississippi, USA @ the Humphrey Coliseum
Network: SEC Network
Game Note: Hartford entered the season with high expectations in the America East. Those expectations within the conference are still realistic, but their play entering this game has been disappointing. The Hawks lost to Central Connecticut State before getting blown out by Utah State. A 0-3 start is not what the Hawks had in mind.
Oral Roberts Golden Eagles (1-1, 0-0) @ #20 Texas Christian Horned Frogs (1-0, 0-0)
Time: 5 p.m. (est)
Location: Fort Worth, Texas, USA @ the Ed and Rae Schollmaier Arena
Florida Gulf Coast Eagles (1-1, 0-0) @ #10 Michigan State Spartans (0-1, 0-0)
Time: 6 p.m. (est)
Location: East Lansing, Michigan, USA @ the Breslin Center
Network: BTN
#17 Florida State Seminoles (1-0, 0-0) @ Tulane Green Wave (0-0, 0-0)
Time: 7 p.m. (est)
Location: New Orleans, Louisiana, USA @ the Devlin Fieldhouse
Network: ESPN3

Non-ranked DI Games
‘Non-ranked DI Games’ feature schools that are outside of the AP Top 25, but both teams are DI schools.
St. Francis-Brooklyn Terriers (1-0, 0-0) @ Boston College Eagles (1-0, 0-0)
Time: 1 p.m. (est)
Location: Chestnut Hill, Massachusetts, USA @ the Silvio Conte Forum
Network: ACC Network
Colgate Raiders (1-1, 0-0) @ Cornell Big Red (2-0, 0-0)
Time: 1 p.m. (est)
Location: Ithaca, New York, USA @ the Newman Arena
Network: ESPN+
Game Note: The Big Red are 2-0, with the potential to go 5-0 before they face Connecticut. Cornell faces Colgate, Delaware and New Jersey Institute of Technology (NJIT) – which are great games to measure the true talent of this Ivy League team.
East Tennessee State Buccaneers (1-1, 0-0) @ Creighton Bluejays (1-0, 0-0)
Time: 1:30 p.m. (est)
Location: Omaha, Nebraska, USA @ the CHI Health Center Omaha
Network: FS1
Brown Bears (0-1, 0-0) @ New Jersey Institute of Technolgy Highlanders (2-0, 0-0)
Time: 2 p.m. (est)
Location: Newark, New Jersey, USA @ the NJIT Wellness and Events Center
Network: ESPN+
Game Note: The Highlanders took care of a very good Colgate team in their season-opener, before handling Binghamton with ease. The schedule for NJIT doesn’t pick up until the end of December, but their upcoming game against Cornell will be very telling of this team.
California-Santa Barbara Gauchos (1-0, 0-0) @ North Dakota State Bison (0-1, 0-0)
Time: 2 p.m. (est)
Location: Fargo, North Dakota, USA @ the Scheels Center
Network: ESPN+
Game Note: North Dakota State lost their first game to a very good New Mexico State team. California-Santa Barbara seems to be picking up right where they left off a season ago, and could potentially go undefeated heading into their early December matchup against Washington.
Hofstra Pride (1-0, 0-0) @ Marshall Thundering Herd (1-0, 0-0)
Time: 2 p.m. (est)
Location: Huntington, West Virginia, USA @ the Cam Henderson Center
Network: ESPN+
Southern Mississippi Golden Eagles (1-0, 0-0) @ Southern Methodist Mustangs (1-0, 0-0)
Time: 3 p.m. (est)
Location: Dallas, Texas, USA @ the Moody Coliseum
Network: ESPN3
Florida Atlantic Owls (1-0, 0-0) @ Central Florida Golden Knights (1-0, 0-0)
Time: 3 p.m. (est)
Location: Orlando, Florida, USA @ the CFE Arena
Network: ESPN3
Game Note: Central Florida (UCF) withstood a great test game against MAAC favorite Rider. Despite a sluggish start, the Golden Knights were able to find their offense and run away with a victory. UCF plays some of the best defense in the country, so if the Golden Knights are hitting their shots then they are extremely difficult to beat.
Drexel Dragons (0-1, 0-0) @ Rutgers Scarlett Knights (1-0, 0-0)
Time: 3 p.m. (est)
Location: Piscataway, New Jersey, USA @ the Rutgers Athletic Center
Green Bay Phoenix (1-1, 0-0) @ Iowa Hawkeyes (1-0, 0-0)
Time: 3 p.m. (est)
Location: Iowa City, Iowa, USA @ the Carver-Hawkeye Arena
Southeastern Louisiana Lions (1-1, 0-0) @ Nebraska Cornhuskers (1-0, 0-0)
Time: 4 p.m. (est)
Location: Lincoln, Nebraska, USA @ the Pinnacle Bank Arena
Network: ESPNU
Fort Wayne Mastodons (1-1, 0-0) @ Ohio State Buckeyes (1-0, 0-0)
Time: 4 p.m. (est)
Location: Columbus, Ohio, USA @ the Value City Arena
Network: BTN
Game Note: It’s safe to say the Buckeyes are just underrated at this point. They seem to be in the same exact position as they were a year ago. They’re an overlooked team that is actually top-15, in large part due to head coach Chris Holtmann.
Lamar Cardinals (1-1, 0-0) @ East Carolina Pirates (1-1, 0-0)
Time: 4 p.m. (est)
Location: Greenville, North Carolina, USA @ the Minges Coliseum
Network: ESPN3
Stetson Hatters (1-0, 0-0) @ Missouri State Bears (2-0, 0-0)
Time: 4 p.m. (est)
Location: Springfield, Missouri, USA @ the JQH Arena
Network: ESPN3
Game Note: Missouri State has quietly impressed in their first two season games. The level of competition has not been stellar though, as the Bears will face a true test in the next matchup against Nebraska at home. Don’t expect the Bears to look ahead to that game, as they should beat the Hatters.
Sam Houston State Bearkats (2-0, 0-0) @ Louisiana Tech Bulldogs (1-0, 0-0)
Time: 5 p.m. (est)
Location: Ruston, Louisiana, USA @ the Thomas Assembly Center
Game Note: Louisiana Tech suffocated the Wichita State offense in their season-opening game. We’ll find out more about Louisiana Tech as the season progresses, but for now, the signs are pointing towards Conference-USA contenders.

Dartmouth Big Green (1-1, 0-0) @ Loyola-Maryland Greyhounds (0-1, 0-0)
Time: 5 p.m. (est)
Location: Baltimore, Maryland, USA @ the Reitz Arena
Missouri-Kansas City Kangaroos (0-2, 0-0) @ Connecticut Huskies (1-0, 0-0)
Time: 5 p.m. (est)
Location: Storrs, Connecticut, USA
Network: ESPN3
California Polytechnic Mustangs (1-0, 0-0) @ Arizona Wildcats (1-0, 0-0)
Time: 5 p.m. (est)
Location: Tucson, Arizona, USA @ the McKale Center
Network: Pac-12 Network
Game Note: The NCAA investigation and Sean Miller incident are still very much involved with this team. However, the media has been quiet so far and may not become as big of a distraction, if at all this season.
Nicholls State Colonels (1-1, 0-0) @ Washington State Cougars (0-0, 0-0)
Time: 7 p.m. (est)
Location: Pullman, Washington, USA @ the Friel Court
Network: Pac-12 Network
Appalachian State Mountaineers (1-0, 0-0) @ Alabama Crimson Tide (1-0, 0-0)
Time: 7 p.m. (est)
Location: Tuscaloosa, Alabama, USA @ the Coleman Coliseum
Network: SEC Network
Utah Valley Wolverines (1-1, 0-0) @ Saint Mary’s Gaels (1-0, 0-0)
Time: 8 p.m. (est)
Location: Moraga, California, USA @ the McKeon Pavilion
Vanderbilt Commodores (1-0, 0-0) @ Southern California Trojans (1-0, 0-0)
Time: 9 p.m. (est)
Location: Los Angeles, California, USA @ the Galen Center
Network: Pac-12 Network
Game Note: These two teams will more than likely find themselves on the bubble come March. Neither started well in their season-opening games, but eventually pulled away to win nicely. Expect these two to play overall inconsistent this season, but with the potential to reach March Madness.
Bryant Bulldogs (0-1, 0-0) @ Seattle Redhawks (1-1, 0-0)
Time: 10 p.m. (est)
Location: Kent, Washington, USA @ the ShoWare Center
North Texas Mean Green (3-0, 0-0) @ Hawaii Warriors (2-0, 0-0)
Time: 11 p.m. (est)
Location: Honolulu, Hawaii, USA @ the Stan Sheriff Center
Game Note: North Texas is a contender in the Conference-USA this season, as this is a great test game for this program. They have looked good in Hawaii thus far, winning against Humboldt and Portland. Hawaii will be their toughest test yet, so expect a good game between two teams with much to prove. This will be North Texas’ biggest test until Oklahoma, which takes place after Thanksgiving.
Enjoying a great experience as a team at the Pearl Harbor Memorial.

Network: ESPN+
Wabash Little Giants @ Northern Kentucky Norse (2-0, 0-0)
Time: 6 p.m. (est)
Location: Highland Heights, Kentucky, USA @ the BB&T Arena
Network ESPN+
Game Note: Northern Kentucky looks like the best team out of the Horizon League thus far. Wright State will try to defend their throne, but an ugly loss on Saturday put Northern Kentucky as the top team in that conference for now.
We've got a quick turnaround following last night's double-OT thriller. But, we know our fans have our back and will turn out to @theBBTArena tomorrow.https://t.co/Z6L2lofTzb #NorseUp #TakeNotice pic.twitter.com/ODawrdUV9l
